The question we are most often asked when we mention that we are planning to go on a cruise is “Where are you going?” Our answer is “It doesn’t matter to us, we just know we will enjoy the friends that we are going with.” Today’s delights included exploring the ship with friends, dancing at the captain’s cocktail party, dressing up for the formal dinner, and dancing, dancing, dancing, until it was time to go climb into our bunk with our cute little towel critter.
Over a long weekend we sampled some of the myriad things to do in Cuyahoga Valley National Park, unique among national parks for it’s environmental reclamation, historic preservation, and recreational opportunities adjacent to the populous cities of Cleveland and Akron in northeastern Ohio. Can’t wait to return and explore more.
Our journey from Portsmouth, England to our home in Ohio might have been accomplished in about sixteen hours but my avoiding air travel we were able to enjoy a fifteen day journey home via train, ship, Uber, train, as well as our own feet and finally our personal vehicle.
It’s been a fascinating two day visit to Portsmouth Historic Dockyard. We managed to pack in tours of the HMS Warrior, the HMS Victory as well ast Victory Live: The
Big Repair, and finally the Mary Rose. All were incredibly informative and well presented.
