California November 2008

There was a big fire in California the day we were to leave for the cruise, the freeway into Long Beach was closed, so over 70 people were delayed. The nice captain of the ship was kind enough to hold the ship for most of the people. Instead of leaving at 3:00 we left about 9:00 pm. It was absolutely wonderful being able to leave at night. The reflection of the lights on the water was stunning.

We got into Long Beach a day before leaving on the cruise. We walked all over Long Beach - our hotel was only a few blocks from the ocean. We went to the Long Beach Aquarium and had a great time. The photo above is of a sea horse. It looked just like a plant. I think the seahorse and the jelly fish were my favorites.

We had lunch in the Harbour Village in Long beach. The ships and lighthouse were so beautiful!


Scott with Zoltar the Fortune Teller.....I think his fortune was that he would have a fabulous week on the cruise...it was correct.....We had a great time!
