Halloween in LeHavre

 First, we were going to take a bus to Paris, but it was going to be 10 hours (5 hours on a bus) and we decided it would be too tiring.  Then, we tried to set up a private driving tour of Normandy, but that didn't work out either.  So, we just stayed on the ship and enjoyed the quiet of having the ship to ourselves.
 I explored the ship finding the bocce/croquet green on the top deck.
 Dave read his Kindle on the balcony and watched. . .
 The ships and boats come by.

 The ship was decorated for Halloween and even had a pumpkin carving demonstration for those who stayed aboard the ship.



And, we even had Halloween candy on our pillow that night!

Between Two Worlds

Most of my life, I've considered it fortunate that I was just ahead of the Baby-boom. Generally, the Baby-boomers were born between 1946 and 1964 after the fathers returned from World War II. It was a huge population explosion that has reverberated through American society.

This blog will be part history, part memories, part reflections of a retired teacher, but active "Senior". I have always felt like I straddled two generations forming a bridge. Sometimes I think like a baby-boomer, but sometimes I'm locked into my parents' Depression era thinking. I'm a dichotomy of two eras. But, I'm always ready to try something new---so here I am dipping my toes in the water of Blogworld.
