It’s here! It’s finally here! After a breakfast from the 9th Ave Gourmet Deli at the corner and some great coffee from Arvaci next door then making sure we were packed and ready, we summoned an Uber ride and enjoyed chatting with our driver. Now here we are at the Brooklyn Cruise Terminal, checked in, and waiting to be summoned to board. Got disappointing news this morning, friends we expected to see on board have had to reschedule their trip, we’ve promised to raise a glass to their future adventures. Now we’re about to hear the call us for to board. Let the party begin! Life is an Adventure!

More photos later but we want to post this before we sail on under the Verrazano Bridge and lose our connectivity until next Friday.

    Hello, we met you at Prison City Brewery on Saturday, August 12. NYC is always a fun and adventuresome trip, have a great time on that cruise!!!!
    We just spent the past couple of weeks in Montreal, ME and Acadia National Park, an incredible start to our adventure!!
    We’re on our way back home (to Sanborn, NY suburb of Niagara Falls, NY) for a couple weeks before we start heading south on September, 18th. We started posting pics of our travels on our blog. zwaraadentureZ.blogspot.com (it’s not as nice as your website, but it works for us).
    Enjoy your travels,
    Dave and Chellie Zwara

Wicked The Musical

Wicked The Musical

Ever since its debut on Broadway the two of us have wanted to see “Wicked the Musical”. Today we realized that dream. In the Apollo Victoria Theater in London’s West End we were witness to the incredible prequel to The Wizard of Oz, the story of the Glinda the Good and the Wicked Witch of the West.

Six Lives: The Stories of Henry VIII’s Queens

Six Lives: The Stories of Henry VIII’s Queens

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.
