Hometown Memories

Family

Walking the streets of St Petersburg is an activity that is rife with memories for us. For example we often pass the State Theater where the two of us went to watch “Viva Max” on our first date on January 24, 1970. The character of the theater has changed a bit since then. We also went dancing at the White Rabbit which is no longer there and went walking on Pass-a-Grill beach which is still one of our favorite beach walks.

Today we had a fun day in studios at The Arts Center. That included a lunch of cheesecake brought by jeweler friend, Martha. After studios we joined artist friend, Ken, at The Old Northeast Tavern for sandwiches and beer, a Saturday tradition!

Archeological excavations since the 19th Century continue to reveal evidence of a thriving community.

Half a Day in Rome

Our recent travel misadventures seriously curtailed our time in Rome pre-cruise but we did get to visit the Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel before making the trip to Civitavecchi for an overnight in the port city of Rome preparatory to departing on Allure of the Seas tomorrow.
