A 2-week cruise to Iceland

 

 

This trip - Us and: Terri and Steve

 

We left from New York (a pleasure)
No planes - just get on the ship!
First stop Newport, Rhode Island We went for a sail.  A most beautiful day!
Next stop - Boston
We visited the JFK Presidential Library
(I didn't get off in Maine - so no pix)
Many interesting exhibits Then back on the ship and off to Bar Harbor, Maine
Next was Halifax - Nothing at  all of interest there
Then on to St Johns, Newfoundland, but,
Icebergs and weather made the Captain skip it!
Great time Great friends
Lee had a birthday We dressed up
Sumptuous spreads Special meals
The Birthday girl They took special care of us
Food - made to order Finally ICELAND
This is their Concert Hall/Opera House
Strange Language (I wonder what this means)
Lots to do & see
It's not all ice, but it is beautiful.
Geysers and hot springs all over the place
North America is on the left                                        Europe is on the right
They take full advantage of the hot springs
...and so did we!!
Beautiful Flowers
