Spent the day walking boardwalks through all sorts of geothermal phenomena. Nothing like walking around on top of one of the world’s most enormous volcanoes! Also saw lots of wildlife…elk, bison, an eagle, and more. Made the mistake of arriving at Canyon Village hungry for lunch at the same time as several tour buses. We bought a few groceries and picnicked in the car. It was a overcast and cold day. We did see a tiny bit of snow but then a few minutes later we saw a couple of minutes of sunshine! We cut our touring a little short and came back to our room for a nap and a good dinner accompanied by Moose Drool brown ale.
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!
I notice that you haven’t blogged from yellowstone in two days. Does that mean you’ve left. While you were there does it look like a giant caldera?
