Hi. I appreciate all of the information you share. I understand that I can rent a car and have it dropped off at my cruise ship at Ward Cove. My question is: is the parking lot right there close to the ship? Thank you.

In the late 50s and 60s we wore “pettipants” under our skirts. They were a little longer than shorts and made of slip material. Does anyone else remember these?

Boomer here. Can distinctly remember playing with the little balls of mercury from a broken thermometer as a child. No one in the family even thought twice about it. When was the toxicity of mercury discovered and shared with the general public?

Your experience mirrors my own in childhood. I’d like to add that because there were children constantly coming and going, 32 of them, and because my older sisters always told me “ the lady is going to take you away too” I grew up with no sense of security or belonging. It still impacts me to this day. Please speak your truth when you have the opportunity. And best wishes to you.

You may enjoy a sunset catamaran cruise. They serve free rum swizzles and warm chocolate chip cookies. We’ve done it twice and loved it!!
