Rare rafinmd Posted May 8, 2021 Author #201 Share Posted May 8, 2021 I only have one May 8 sunrise. It's from my 2019 Nieuw Statendam/Cunard round trip transatlantic. I slept late May 8 but caught this from my hotel window in Kiel. Roy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare rafinmd Posted May 13, 2021 Author #208 Share Posted May 13, 2021 Thank you @Camgirl and @Host Hattie. My final pre-op sunrise is from a 2010 Blount inland cruise from Nashville to Chicago. Floods cause great havoc that year and I don't know exactly where we were on May 13 but it was on the Cumberland, Tennessee, or Ohio river somewhere between Nashville and St. Louis.

Cunard used to have a building in Chicago, built in 1916 at 140 N Dearborne Street. It was demolished in 1962 to make way for the Richard Daly Center. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
