Rockin’ and Rollin’ on the High Seas

After two days at sea, we arrived at St. John’s in Canada on Monday. St. John’s claims to be the oldest town in North America, but I wonder if that’s really true, and it may depend on how you define the word “town.” We took a morning tour around the area and took a lot of photographs.

St. John’s is the home to many fishermen, and we went down to the docks to see a lot of fishing boats in various stages of repair and disrepair. We did see a couple of boats arrive back with their catch and we watched the guys cutting up the fish right on their boats.

Our ship was scheduled to leave at 5 PM, but at that time there was a very thick fog and the captain said it was too dangerous to leave because the inlet to the harbor is very narrow. The fog didn’t lift until about midnight, and the ship left soon after.

Right now we are on the way to New York; we are scheduled to arrive on Thursday. The sea has been pretty rough since we left St. Jon’
