Brussels

May 1991

I loved Brussels but didn’t get to spend enough time here. I need more cafes with Stella Artois, moules and frites!

The Grand Place is gorgeous and so much going on in the square.

Manneken Pis is the famous statue, the Pisser, that everyone has to take a picture with!

Volendam

May 1991

We took a day trip from Amsterdam to this cute town! I loved it, so much charm and what you picture when you think of Holland.

Gabby and I were excited to see windmills, cows and wooden shoes!

We had the best apple pancakes, huge and thick. We also ate herring right off the docks, take a bite right up to the head!

VICTORIA, BC

Victoria is absolutely charming! I loved the city, had high tea at the Fairmont, bought chocolates and wandered the quaint streets.

PEGGYS COVE, NOVA SCOTIA

Peggy’s Cove, Nova Scotia was so beautiful! But it was a chilly day so chowder and lobster were in order!

Woke up to beautiful lighthouses in Portland, Maine.

It’s such a typical New England town.

Catalina Island, California

Avalon, February 2016

Crown Princess

Good morning Catalina Island, excited to explore.

We rented a golf cart to get around the island today. Got some great views down into Avalon and the ship anchored offshore.

The famous Casino is a landmark of Catalina.

We spent some time at Descanso Beach Club because it was such a beautiful day. Then of course we had to stop at the infamous Luau Larry’s for a tropical drink, a typical Tiki Bar. It I is supposed to be the “noisy bar in Avalon” from the Crosby, Stills & Nash song Southern Cross.

Back to the ship for a swim and my favorite afternoon tea and scones!
