We spent Friday night in New York City and were able to see a Broadway play, "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying." If you can, stay the night before in NY! It is such an exciting place!

Embarkation was effortless. We are Platinum, and got right onboard at noon. Went to the Sanctuary to check it out and pre-reserve seats. Beautiful place with attentive staff. The weather was so gorgeous, I feel guilty. Mid 80's. Sunny. I had all the wrong clothes. I was expecting cold and rain. Had 3 coats and long underwear! We were travelling with my brother and his wife. Although we both had requested dining together, we were seated at different dining rooms at different times! Got that re-arranged for the next night. Platinum and Elites have Happy Hour in Skywalkers Lounge from 4-6 every evening. Free appetizers. Beautifully presented. Almost no one there!

New Port RI: Very pretty, ancient place. We took the Colonial Newport tour. Walking tour with knowledgable guide, very interesting Phone # 401-841-8770 for reservations. We did not go to the mansions. We have seen Biltmore House enough and wanted to learn something else. Read more
