We’re in River Ridge LA, just west of New Orleans, sitting in the shade with our coffee and tea on a pleasantly warm morning enjoying the breeze debating as to what we want to do today. We both have a desire to visit the National World War II Museum but neither of us really wants to get involved in the crowds of their D Day Anniversary events nor do we care to deal with traffic or narrow streets or elusive parking places. Instead we may head upriver and visit a plantation house today. History lesson or history lesson? Two good options!
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!
