There’s nothing like having local guides. Folks who know can lead you to the best Croissants and Iced Coffee at the amazing Farmers Market in Bloomington IN then stop at Rasta Pops to try some delectable gourmet popsicles, before leading you through a delightful Historic Antique Mall then guiding you to a quiet corner of The Tap for a midday thirst quencher and snack. In our rambles we sometimes stumble onto treasures like these but it’s such fun to be guided from one great spot to another by those in the know!
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!
