The one where Mark comes to Boston and there is a raging blizzard...

"Hey, Mark, you're going the wrong way!!" Now I ask you....wouldn't you stay in sunny Florida instead of coming to snowy Boston to visit? I know I would. But we were happy to see Mark anyway.


The Norwegian Gem was in the port of Boston on Saturday and Mark got us guest passes to go on board. We enjoyed a delicious lunch at one of the many restaurants on board and then we toured the ship.
Check out the amethyst ceiling in the atrium.

The Countess couldn't resist taking center stage at the Stardust Theater!

In Le Bistro, the French restaurant, there is an original Matisse, "Nude in a Turban".

After we left the ship, we took a stroll through Faneuil Hall Market Place.

There were carolers singing.....and every tourist stops in at the Cheers "Where everybody knows your name" Bar for a cocktail.

Mr. Brian caught up with us there and we had a drink with Norm.

Brian and Mark were sliding on the pavement.....
After a delicious dinner (Thank you, Brian) we headed off to Machine whereThe Gold Dust Orphans were presenting "Silent Night of the Lamb", a black Christmas comedy. If you are in the Boston area and are sick of Jolly, Holly Christmas, get over there and see it. It is hysterical!!


The snow held off until the early morning hours and I was safe at home by then. Thank you Mark and Brian for a wonderful day and night on the town!

Blizzards and cruise ships and visits with the Northern Court - those are a few of my favorite things!
