Ed!
I hope you didn't think I was being mean, just flippant. So sorry, I didn't
mean to sound like a jerk... I guess my joke missed the mark. We're a little
cold around here lately, and it puts me in a state of mind such that I think
of moving (gasp!) Somewhere Warm. I usually get over it around April.
You're right, the German U-Boat is a fascinating exhibit. My father was
always a boat enthusiast (we spent vacations alternating between visiting
the U.S.S. Something-or-Other and Civil War battlefields throughout my
youth) and so I've been there more than once. It's definitely worth a look.
Regards,
Cecilia
ObSal: Didn't the Old Man, at one point in his misspent youth, spend some
time as a cruise entertainment director or something similar? I understand
that he based one of his underpublished stories "A Young Girl in 1941 with
No Waist at All" which I have not had the pleasure to read) on that
experience.
