One more day in King's Point June 13


The car is ok.... we picked it up this morning without any further drama.
Across the street from the garage, was a large denuded hill.
 I asked about it, to find out that it was the remains of a glacier. 
The moose are ok,  I found.
one in the woods.

And Michael is ok, even though he keeps hitting his head, everytime he opens the trunk of the car. Something to do with old age? Here's the birthday boy.
Hardly did anything today.
We're at the bottom of an inlet, and unlike tonight, there was zero wind this morning.
              (This is NOT a lake)

After breakfast, we drove further down the bay. Spring is just now kicking in.
Ventured into the woods to see a waterfall, but to get the primo view, we would have had to climb up a very high, and steep staircase, and just wasn't into that today.
Returned back to the Inn, and just relaxed at the dock.  And tomorrow, we take off again, to Cottlesville, which is adjacent to Twillingate.

Short News Day, but Long Drive June 8

Didn't meet anybody today, that we're haven't seen before. We didn't even see any moose. So instead, revisiting one of yesterday's moose (video previously unseen). https://photos.app.goo.gl/ DzXcyVVjjo345u9w6 .  Thank you for the indulgence. Not our quickest start in the morning but we finally pushed off at 9:30. Headed back south via the west coast and was keeping a keen eye open for whale spouts, but instead, only saw one small lost iceberg (not usually found outside iceberg alley).  At some point, also saw a boat in the distance, sticking up behind some trees. Knew that it was neither a fishing point nor a cruise ship, and had to get a closer look. And of course, it was the ferry, leaving for Labrador.  We had stopped at the ferry dock, during our north bound trip, but the ferry wasn't  there at the time. This time we caught it just as it was closing up and leaving. https://photos.app.goo.gl/ xUSKR4UgCJD48km8A Later on, we took a side ...

Left on time . We arrived at the airport with loads of time to spare. I like when there's no pressure to get through security. No long line ups . Security was suspicious of my ankles (are they becoming too thick?) And made me giggle as they tickled them and then made me hop and skip (at my age!) to check my heels . Plane started to roll at 1:20. The safety talk was incorporated into Canadian travel videos (very cute). Oh, shit we fly over Russia! TMI? First bathroom run at 3Pm. Happy to report bathroom was still clean. In fact, the bathrooms never came close to reaching the disgusting levels we had encountered on other flights. How come I became less sleepy after a bottle of wine than before drinking? Wolfed down lunch. Either it was good or I was THAT ravenous. I picked the beef dish because it was supposed to come with potatoes, but I got rice. No matter....I was so hungry that later on, when they delivered a tuna fish roll for a snack, I ate that too (...

May 19 LAST of 7 in a row Sea Days

And this is where we finished sailing to by bedtime (right past Mecca).  Watch one of my favorite waiters: https://photos.app.goo.gl/XqvKzQJHwGx8Lmeu7 (he's Philippino). Ok, I'm a little short on material. But I did get snagged by the magician to go on stage last night. I HATED it. Very hot under the lights. But at least, I didn't embarrass myself . Or at least, I don't think that I did . Much. Over night, we crossed into Egyptian waters. Pre-dinner entertainment tonight, was made up of a few intrepid passengers who had practiced their Bollywood dance moves over the last week. I took videos , but it'll take forever to upload, so cannot include in today's blog, but we enjoyed it. Tomorrow morning, dock at Safaga and take a LONG ride to Luxor and the Valley of the Kings. Have a wake up call .for 5am. And yes, it will be hot. And actually, this is possibly the worst way to see any of the ancient world in Egypt. We won...
