At Sea back to New York




After a hot morning in the sun, I took it easy. I even skipped dinner not feeling like my usual self.
The next day was better. I made it to breakfast but couldn't open the catsup. Someone was nice enough, a scrabble champ, to open it for me. Went to the pool, shooped in the onboard gift store and then did a little internet surfing. It's nice that you can access the Internet from the ship.
Dinner was great. Fresh turkey breast, stuffed to the rim with apple and sage and whipped baked potatoes in brown sauce. Paul had the sea food and prime rib. No matter what they put on the plate, everything was delicious. It was out last night on the ship so we lingered over dinner as our ship cruised slowly into harbor. A little casino time and then it was off to bed for some MVS.
In the morning, we crossed under the Verrazano bridge and while breakfasting on blueberry pancakes, baked ham and pineapples, we passed in front of the Statue of Liberty again. Docking was easy, departing even easier. I drove home that day but the boys stayed in New York for some baseball action.
