We made the short walk from the campsite to the local purveyor of frozen confections and sampled their Extreme Cookies and Cream! Then to atone we walked in the opposite direction to see the powerhouse at the outflow and the massive dam towering over us. It gave us a pause as we contemplated the power of the water contained behind that huge structure. We also wondered at the possibility of getting a tour of the powerhouse but realized we’d missed our window of opportunity since Robyn, the incredibly helpful ranger who might have been able to arrange something for us had gone home for the day, and is off tomorrow. Guess we’ll just have to pursue other wonderful adventures!
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!
