I just double checked and you are correct it is Corfu, one should not rely on memory! I now owe several more Cuban lunches! Do the Cuban lunches come with beer?

Almost anything goes with chocolate, but maybe not bee. Maybe a nice red wine, not too expensive? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quartzsite Cruiser Posted September 25, 2020 #580 Share Posted September 25, 2020 My ignorance was showing since it is (or was) a Canadian candy and not sold in Texas or anywhere else we’ve lived in the US. Wish I’d known about it, as I’d have liked to try it. Have met very few chocolates I didn’t like, with or without red wine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A woman has brought it back as it was her mom’s favourite, had one last week it was pretty good. Kind of a cool story. Now back to our our regular programming 😉 where did I think I was?

Right now, while it looks vaguely familiar, but I don’t have a clue. It took DH, mainly, and me the better part of two days to figure it out. So far, what we did for Corfu, has not helped, except to eliminate other ports instead of Corfu. To be honest, the picture of the Nieuw Amsterdam and your signature helped. Maybe, my brain will work better tomorrow. Lenda 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope all is well wih you both, think of you every day when seeing the gift you gave us. Kia ora, great to hear from you! We are fine, but miss cruising, and would like to do again the around-Australia cruise we shared with you and your DH, or even perhaps once again visit Aotearoa, the Land of the Long White Cloud -- New Zealand. I figured that if you were monitoring this thread, you would certainly recognize the port. Yes, it is indeed Picton. For those who have not visited, the Picton area in New Zealand's South Island has a thriving renewable lumber industry -- we could smell the logs even before we entered the port area. Picton is also near a lush fertile area of green valleys and rolling hills that contain a great many vineyards that produce excellent wines, including the superlative sauvignon blancs of Marlborough.
