This morning we woke up to calm seas and on our way to New York. We’ve had a hard time getting internet and see my watch couldn’t even connect for the location and weather today.



We had breakfast at the Grand Dining Room. Jim had the canyon ranch special which was orange juice, whole wheat blueberry pancakes, chicken sausage and a brioche with black coffee. Patricia had tomato juice, and a special lemon custard waffle which was fantastic. She also enjoyed her pot of green tea.




We came back to the room and our suitcases were laid out which meant we had to pack. The time has gone by quickly.

We are now packed. Although we are packing one bag for New York and we have another carry on that we will bring with us to put our last minute toiletries.

We had lunch in the Terrace Cafe. Jim had a ham sandwich, beets and slaw. We both had cauliflower soup. Patricia had a artichoke square ancrab salad on whole wheat toast.



While we were eating we started coming into Staten Island. What a beautiful site!









We have arrived at Pier 88 in Manhattan.
What a sight to see our ship on the streets of Manhattan!

Our afternoon tour was at 2:30 PM to see the 9/11 Memorial and Museum. We had a great tour guide.

He started explaining what happened on 9/11 and it was so moving that Patricia didn’t know it would hit her so hard. We got on the bus and then had a sightseeing tour while on our way to the 9/11 Memorial and Museum.
For dinner we ate at the Terrace Cafe. Jim had veal piccata parmesan with pasta, mashed potatoes and crab legs. Patricia had spaghetti with marinara sauce and focaccia bread. For dessert we tried pina colada cream cake and Bounty cake which reminded Patricia of a Bounty bar she would buy in Germany. Jim had a scoop of ice cream.
