Crossing an old railroad bridge was really interesting. Local school classes painted panels. Remember this one of Tower Hill Bobby Orr, still my favorite hockey player, never forget him sailing across the ice 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are interested in the history of Detroit, and it's close proximation to Canada, read Jeffrey Eugenides books. He is an author born in Detroit, and while his books can be controversial, (as any good book is), he does give some history on prohibition and how bootleggers would drive across the lake Canada. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw it but didn’t take a picture. I commented that you wouldn’t want to turn on that bridge. The bridge isn’t joined yet and just drops off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We took a nap and we had passed Detroit when I awoke. The temps have been warm. Possibly the tropical temps from the edges of the hurricane.

Rare cachouonacruise Posted September 17, 2023 #819 Share Posted September 17, 2023 Hi Jim, Thank-you again for the superb photos of your trip! They are really beautiful! I do have one or two more questions about your experience. I don't remember your itinerary, but does it include sea (lake) days? And, what type of activities are available on a small ship like Le Bellot, when not in port? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only address was Mr Hockey and it would get delivered to him Mark Howe also in the Hall of Fame said people in the stands would try to rile him by saying that he will never be as good as his dad. His reply. “you are right and nobody else will ever be either.” Happy cruising 🌊🚢🇺🇸🌅 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happily, no designer/ formal jeans on this cruise line! All of the Breads, Pastries have been far superior than Celebrity. On the pictures the fist is of a couple Puff Pastry small rolls. The dinner roles are traditional French and come in White, Rye and Whole Wheat. The pastries in the morning are incredible - They usually have a plain croissant, Chocolate, Pastry Cinnamon Roll, Apple Tarts etc I think you could get away with Nice Jeans at dinner. Most dress for the MDR but they offer alternative dining on the Main Salon and outside. Almost the same menu sometimes one less dish. You serve yourself for Cheese, Salad and desert and table service for the main courses. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
