Sooo.. good I decided a trip to get some muessls for my d inner was in order. Howe lucky was I to find a big beautiful shipment of fresh PEI mussels just being put into the fish case for sale as I entered the market ! I steamed t hem until t the shells fully opened and they are delicious However, I think I may have bought too many Oh well, I'll hae v to keep eatng them,... LOw calories , high pro tein, goo d nutrition. A dirty job but I'm happy to eat them until 'gone 🙂 Anyone on a ship that will port in Chartlotetown?

We enjoy Boston for embarkation and disembarkation. We've done the Historic Coast itinerary, 7 days round trip out of Boston, a couple of times and really enjoyed it. Boston is a lot easier to get to than some places and we love the city. It sounds like you enjoyed your cruise and I'm glad to hear that. We had a blast last year and had several new ports since we went all the way to Montreal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
