Setting Sail! The Norwegian Star... Day 2 09/22/19
Today was the big day! We were boarding the Norwegian Star for our Greek Islands cruise! This cruise was booked nearly a year ago, and the day was finally here! It was a port intensive cruise, which I love! We visit a new destination every day. All of these ports are new to both of us as well, so that's even more exciting! When we woke up this morning, it was raining a bit, and much cooler than yesterday. We were very lucky to have had such beautiful weather yesterday and we were glad that today we were boarding our ship. Speaking of weather and rain in Venice, it's the perfect time to mention the devastating flooding that they have been experiencing the past week or so. Every year Venice does experience high tides and flooding, known as Acqua Alta, but this year the flooding has been the most devastating in over 50 years. There has been much damage to buildings, workshops, homes, and it has destroyed property. I have had clients and friends ask me what can be done...
