Today began a bit grey, but we found three sunny people...Ngaire, Ken an Ralph...standing at the taxi stand waiting for us this morning for their free, all inclusive tour of Westchester County, NY. The tour included a crowded, yet not too uncomfortable 45 minute tour north from the city including such sites as Doug's first home, the GW bridge, Gil's old apartment, the Cloisters, views of the Hudson River, views of the scenic NJ Palisades, Reader's Digest, Bill and Hillary's house (they weren't in to greet us), a shot past Margo's old neighborhood, and down through the Clinton's Chappaqua, happy Pleasantville and a stop for snacks and beverages at Casa de Agua. After an historic house tour and the petting zoo of the dogs, Toby and Molly, we headed back down to Sleepy Hollow, Tarrytown, the Rockefeller estate (they weren't in either) and Doug's old boarding school. Then our all inclusive non cruise began with lunch on the Navigator's la Veranda restaurant where we could eat outside thanks to mother nature warming up and sending us blue skies. It was wonderful seeing everyone and hugs and kisses were shared all around. Our table at lunch got bigger and bigger as folks got back from their tours and joined. It was great seeing Marcie's family and Tom G's family. Folks said this has been one the best trips ever and seemed ever so happy. We joined them up in trivia, but, sadly, after one or two clues the announcement came that all guests had to leave the ship. We said our goodbyes and it made it seem better that we would soon be seeing some in a couple of months on Zodiac. However, for others, it won't be until 2013 that we will see them again. Such a wonderful day! Thank you Ngaire and Ken for making this happen.
