While in New York, we took the subways over to Hoboken, NJ, to see the famous "Carlo's Bakery" from the show, Cake Boss.
Picture (below) taken on a galloping horse, apparently. Ha!
As you walk in, you are handed a number because of the crowds. I guess it looks like this everyday. Incredible!
Below, one of the sisters, in red.
We had to catch a Broadway musical while in town.
The set of Wicked!!!
Our Ship
Below, the big screen on the main deck. A couple of nights we watched movies out there. It was just like going to a drive-in. They were great comedies...so fun!!
First Port-Stop...Boston.
I LOVE all the historical sites and architecture there!!!
This photograph (below) is from the last time we were in Boston, visiting my brother and his family. We came a little too early in the season to see leaves like this, this time.
Goodbye Boston!
Next Port...Maine.
Portland Head Light, below. I was so happy that the weather was perfect that day!
Again...in LOOOOVE with the architecture!!!
Third Port...St. John, N.B., Canada
Our Tour Guide, all decked out. : )
Charming Canadian Market.
I got a kick out of this T-shirt, below.
I bought "Sebastian" at this stop. Don't forget about him, because I photographed him in all the places we visited thereafter...(another Post sometime).
Each night when you come back to your room, while on a Cruise, you will find a different "towel animal" there. This was my favorite.
Last Port...Halifax, Nova Scotia.
Peggy's Cove Lighthouse. Beautiful!!!
What a wonderful adventure!!!
'Tis the Season...time to pull out all the "stuff"! :-D

wow everything looks so beautiful!!!! I love Sebastian
It sounds and looks like you had a great time. I love seeing the old buildings/architecture like that. Those cupcakes look yummy. Thanks for sharing your trip with us. Looks like you are getting ready for Halloween. :D
Have a great week.
When you were at Carlos' Bakery, you were 2 blocks from where my daughter lives. Every day she takes the Path train into the city for work. Wicked...my favorite musical of all time...did you like it? The New England/ Canada part of your trip looks marvelous! I have been to Boston (sooo much history to see-loved it!) but I've not been to the other places that you and Sebastian traveled..adding it to my bucket list for retirement! Thanks for letting us see all of these great picures ML.
Now-get hopping on your Halloween decorating! I finally did mine today.

What a lovely vacation. You look so relaxed, and I love your "nautical" outfit. That Sebastian is a cutie! I always wanted to take one of those "New England" type cruises. It looked like you had a ball. So many beautiful photographs. I'll keep my eyes peeled for future "Sebastian" sightings! ;)

Looks like a great time. Did you love Wicked?
Fun pictures, Mary Lou! Looks like you had a fabulous time. How did you like Wicked? Carrie and I saw that while we were in New York in 2006 and we loved it!
This post is astonishing to me! I have always wanted to take a cruise, but my husband is not interested at all in the warm weather ones. I've just called down the stairs about yours from NY to Canada. "Hmmmm" he's calling back to me, "Sounds interesting!"
Fingers crossed! Elizabeth
Great photos! Looks like you had a fabulous trip. Thanks for sharing.
Looks like you had a very enjoyable trip.
What a beautiful part of the world!! I love the architecture there as well!! Soooo??? What did you get at the bakery???????? :)
Looks like a fantastic trip!! Isn't the Wicked set amazing? I love that show!!! Good choice!! :)
All great places but I think Halifax would be my favorite. Reminds me of Anne of Green Gables. Looks like an incredible trip.
I have oohed & aaahed my way thru the last two posts! What a totally amazing trip...your New York pics took me back to our visit there in November 2001, amazing to see the 9/11 memorial!! while we were there they were still clearing away the debris!!...Oh & BTW I also have serious Sebastian envy now!!! Thanks so much for sharing!! :)
