Cruise to Canada

Truth be told, I've never been wild about the idea of taking a cruise. Call it fear of rogue waves, never ending chow lines (most people love this about a cruise, but it actually gets gross!) and simply being stuck on a boat. I was pleasantly surprised to really enjoy myself and my time with my family. New Brunswick and Nova Scotia are awesome and I'll post some images of those soon. The moment I got on board, I started shooting and could not get over the enormity of the ship. I mean you can seriously get lost, at least for a few days. There is so much to do, that you actually forget that you are at sea. I was quite taken by the views of the city from the boat.

I caught my sister taking it all in from her balcony.

Holy S__T are we going to fit under the Verrazano Bridge?

Then we had a drill about what to do in case of emergency. It was a joke, we were packed in like sardines and couldn't hear anything coming over the loud speakers. I figured that we'd be O.K. since we knew what level to get to in case we needed to jump in a life raft. After all didn't the Titanic sink just off the coast of Halifax?!

Finally, time to chill!
