Welcome

I hope you find what you were looking for here, or maybe something interesting that you were NOT looking for!

By The Sea, By The Sea, By The Beautiful Sea...

     I've never been on a cruise...not on a "small" cruise ship or a larger one.
     Still, I read an article about The Allure, one of the two largest cruise ships in the world, with interest this morning.
     This picture shows the ship passing under a bridge with less than a foot difference....possible only in calm seas and by lowering the telescoping funnels of the mammoth vessel.

   The story is in the Times today, written by a woman who goes on the cruise with her Aunt. Like the old tree in the forest question, if you go on a cruise and never feel the movement of the ocean, did you really go cruising?
