Another benefit of our detour to Texas, is our first opportunity to help our niece Rebecca celebrate her birthday! In keeping with family tradition she got to choose the location and timing for a celebratory meal. Her choice was brunch at Black Walnut Cafe with her mother, mother-in-law, and the two of us! Yum! She made an excellent choice! Now she’s heading home to work on a paper for school and we and are Patti bound for Harris to hang out with Dad.
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!
