We arrived yesterday to sunny skies - on 12th floor in tower at Pier 66 balcony views ocean and canals sooo pretty! We visited our favorite dive bar for lunch oysters (think real dive but love it southport raw bar behind hotel)...tried 15th St Fisheries for dinner but mad house so left and went to Bravo (Italian)nearby - they are filming movie on hotel grounds so hectic here - tonight having dinner with granddaughters and family - Sat the ship!!! We brought too much stuff will we ever learn?? Pretty day but may become overcast we don't care - need to find book store, hit CVS and then I hope I can get to enjoy this beautiful pool for couple of hrs....more later can't wait to see rest of group. Tami your great reports have us all so excited!
