I have been to L'Anse aux Meadows, and it is fascinating. But as @mystyhas pointed out, it is nowhere near where this cruise goes. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Lois R Posted January 20, 2023 #15703 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Any of you follow the folk music of the 70s? Still love that genre. Sad day today, David Crosby from Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young died today. His music will live on......RIP. David Crosby. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daveywavey70 Posted January 21, 2023 #15711 Share Posted January 21, 2023 Kumbhalgarh.A Fascinating drive through the Aravali Mountains to visit Kumbhalgarh fort. A Long tailed Monkey landed on the car as we were driving through the Forest, the first of many to be seen that day. Driving through the mountains is like the land that time forgot. People washing on the roadside from hand pumps and even bulls turning water wheels. Approaching the Fort is incredible. I Kept asking the driver are we there yet?, not to be annoying but despite it having a view for many, many miles it is surrounded by 13 mountains so you only see it as you right next to it. These 15th century town planners knew what they were doing. Sitting at 1100m above sea level, the intact 22 mile long wall is second in the world only to the Great Wall of China. The complex contains over 70 Hindu and Jain Temples and has been the scene for many battles and sieges over the years. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daveywavey70 Posted January 21, 2023 #15712 Share Posted January 21, 2023 Udaipur.The day started with a visit to Saheliyon Ki Bari, a small ornamental garden built on the banks of the Fateh Sagar Lake, It was built from 1710 to 1734 by Maharana Sangram Singh for the royal ladies. A Visit to the Royal Palace was next and a wander around the streets of Old Udaipur, it took 22 Maharajas over 400 years to build the palace, I'm sure they had help though. Another incredible place that shows the majesty of these lands. Next was a real treat, a boat trip out to visit Jagmandir Island, an exquisite palace that looks like a floating Palace in the middle of the Jagmandir Lake. Some of the buildings around the lake and a more modern bridge at one end do have a whiff of Venice about them. I Then got to watch an incredible Sunset from my Hotel Terrace. The Hotel is a converted Palace where the Prince of Wales often Stayed, Not the Current one, but the one we don't talk about (Edward VIII)! 8 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare mysty Posted January 21, 2023 #15716 Share Posted January 21, 2023 I would like to ask for Cooler denizen help please. Myster and I will be going to a scotch tasting Robbie Burns dinner at Black Tartan Kitchen on Wednesday evening. As you know the menu is presented in the form of a crossword puzzle. This one is diabolical! The clues all refer to Robbie Burns' poems/songs. The clues follow the order of the meal. For example clue 1 is usually something like a bread, cheese, meat thing. Clue 2 is usually soup. Clue 3 is usually salad. Clue four is usually fish or meat. Clue 5 is the entree. Clue 6 is usually a sorbet-ish. Clue 7 is dessert. The only clue I'm fairly sure about is #4 which I think is haggis. I think clue 5 might be boar. Please help! 😁 Thank You! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

broker1217 Posted January 21, 2023 #15722 Share Posted January 21, 2023 What about oxen for 5–used for plowing. But that puts an X in 7. 1 and 2 are both 11 letters and obviously start with the same letter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm also toying with 1 being charcuterie but that makes 7 even more difficult. It would be B_T_O_______. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
