The Freedom

Caribbean, Family


She’s Freedom of the Seas and on our sailing out of Port Everglades transported somewhere around 4200 passengers on a week long adventure into the Caribbean Sea. Yes, some of us had misadventures even getting to the ship and Carol didn’t even catch up to us until Tuesday. Yes, we missed our beach day in Labadee. Yes, we sailed through the same cold front twice experiencing 20 foot waves some of which even flooded the deck where we were dancing as well as cool rainy weather. Even with all of that our Savoy at Sea group had a glorious time together dancing on board, prowling San Juan, St Maarten/St Martin, and St Kitts as The Cat Herd, slurping on umbrella drinks, and dancing for eight days! This was our Fourteenth (and counting) Annual Swing Dance Cruise! What a glorious celebration of family and friends!

London’s National Portrait Gallery’s temporary exhibition, “Six Lives: The Stories of Henry VIII’s Queens” presents an amazing collection of portraits, jewelry, personal effects, books, costumes, and more to illustrate not only the lives of the six women who married the second Tudor king, but the effort across five centuries to keep their memory alive.

Caligula at Strawberry Hill

Caligula at Strawberry Hill

The purpose of our trek to Strawberry Hill House in Twickenham in the southwest of London was to see a recently recovered bronze bust of the Emperor Caligula but we discovered so much more in the recently restored 18th Century “little Gothic castle” built by Horace Walpole.
