September 8th we were ported in St. Johns, Newfoundland. This was a particularly exciting spot for me because I had chosen Newfoundland as my Canadian Province to study back in elementary school so I was stoked to have the opportunity to visit it! There was even a Newfoundland puppy to greet us on the pier, so I knew I would like Canada! :) We spent our day touring the port, and found George Street, the North Atlantic version of Bourbon Street. It was raining pretty heavily so we did a mini pub crawl, enjoying live music,drinks and food provided by the wonderful Canadian hospitality. After the rain ceased, we window shopped and strolled thru the rows of brightly colored houses that continued all the way down to the harbor.
On September 12th, we officially completed our crossing as we docked in New York City! I spent the day in Times Square with Freddie. We shopped til we dropped, then ate Chipotle because we missed our "American" food so very much!!!! We had so much fun and had to run back to the ship because we didn't realize how much distance there is between the avenues!!! HAHA WHOOPS!!!
