I would have sworn I posted yesterday but I guess some gremlins got in the system and eliminated it. Too bad, because it was a great post that I can't even attempt to recreate.
Glad to see the Florida belles emerged from the storm unscathed. Our friends Rich and Dianne left here the other day to drive to North Carolina and visit Dianne's sister and brother-in-law. From the weather reports I saw yesterday they were headed directly for a confrontation with Idalia as it makes its way up the coast. Hope they are well.
The ship we will be on is Jewel of the Seas, K2 and it leaves NJ and visits Halifax, Nova Scotia, three ports in Greenland including Nuuk, the capitol, and then visits St. John's, Newfoundland before returning to New Jersey. Not sure what website tracks the cruise ships but pretty certain there is one. If you believe that 50 degrees is cold at this time of the year, as I do, you wouldn't be happy to be in Greenland where that will likely be the warmest temperature we will encounter while there. The ship has to tender in two of the three ports in Greenland so, given our mobility limitations, I expect that our actual experiences there will be limited to Nuuk, where we dock.
Glad you got your handicap placard, Dave. Our procedure in Massachusetts pretty much mirrors the one in Florida that BB described. Here, too, it is nriot supposed to be displayed while driving, but it appears that it is something "more honored in the breach than in the observance".
