Gerardo

An expression of appreciation to all the hard-working men and women who make a cruise an exceptional vacation! This is our room attendant whose smile brightens each meeting! He was cleaning the balcony next door when I called out a "good morning!" to him as we were docked in Barcelona. I asked if I might take his picture that he could send to his wife and children back in Indonesia.

The next day he was marveling that I was able to "make the background blurred while he was in focus"! Never underestimate how easy it is for us to spread magic and joy to others! There wasn't time to fuss over a better background...and it's all about this lovely man anyway!
He's probably from a remote island but do find they work so hard at their job! Nice light!

@maggiemae @casablanca @ethelperry Thank you all for the sweet comments. If I show him this later, he'll likely be amazed that I posted this!
