I’m in New York for a reunion of the people I met on my Antarctic cruise back in January. We chose New York because one of the guys is in a Broadway play here. It was also extra special because it was 4th of July weekend. It was an amazing weekend and it was so great to see everyone again. We had such a blast together and we’re even planning the next reunion(s).
