It was fun knowing that as we wandered the streets of St Petersburg, enjoyed various musicians and artists, and participated in Swing Dancing at Bay Walk; that Greg and Rachel were doing the same in Boston where First Night was first celebrated! We enjoyed the fact that we know the artist that designed the flashing badge. We saw many of our friends in various places during the evening. All in all it was a fun evening capped with champagne and fireworks viewed from our downtown balcony!
Aboard the Norwegian Jewel we’ve made stops in Cozumel, Mexico and Georgetown, Grand Cayman to explore beyond our previous experiences here. Soon we’ll be making our way to ports we’ve not yet explored in the Southern Caribbean.
What a treat to pause for a BBQ lunch with the locals at Pearl Country Store and Barbecue on US-441 in Micanopy, Florida. It’s a taste of the Florida we remeber from our youth.
By deliberate choice we were in Medina for all the winter holiday festivities from Candlelight Walk in the days before Thanksgiving through A Christmas Carol and A Celtic Christmas as well as an Alex Bevan Concert and a historic house tour all the way through Medina’s 31st Ice Festival but perhaps the highlight was the town hosting hundreds of folks whose homes and lives were devasted by Hurricane Helene at the A Promise of Christmas Event the middle of January. It’s an honor to be a part of this amazing community!
