Spent one day at home doing laundry, enjoying time with CJ, watching few episodes from Season 1 of “House”. When we delivered CJ to Gateway to catch the 100X bus across the bay, we stopped in at Beall’s to buy a pair of shoes. Ended up shopping the discount racks. Steve’s line is that we got in yesterday and leaving tomorrow on the cruise so we had to go to Beall’s to do our packing! Couldn’t resist this photo of the Signature rising in downtown St Petersburg.
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!
