We are all travelers in the wilderness of this world, and the best we can find in our travels is an honest friend.

Blogging vs The Olympics

I mean first, there is the WiFi, and the number of devices that we can use at one time. In the evenings, one of those devices is streaming Olympics via Peacock. Thank you streaming! ;) The second issue is that this blogger has a deep and wide love of the Olympics and is finding it hard to concentrate on all the other things. :) But isn't that what vacation is for? Just to veg and do the things that you want to do?

On Sunday we sailed out of Cape Liberty, NJ (near Newark) and on our way out to the Atlantic got to see the Statue of Liberty.  It was pretty magical. I don't know how, in a busy harbor, but we were able to do a "donut" as the captain said, so everyone had a view. It was overcast to begin with, and that actually made it more awesome because the torch and her green color stood out much more. I'm not much of a big city girl, but this view was special!






And because I have personally helped build the Brooklyn Bridge during my recovery this summer by watching the Gilded Age (HBO Max), here she is.


Since then, we've just been cruising! That looks a lot like napping, massages, going to the gym, doing everything next to a window, and drinking copious amounts of artisan coffees at the cafe.  We quietly schooled a table at their drunken game of spelling bee today, but that's probably a blog for a later time. 



Tomorrow we arrive in Bermuda and start looking for pink sand and rum swizzles. 😃
