Kingston Day Cruise - so relaxing

Well, I was off for another day cruise and this time it was in Kingston. I have been to quite a few there but this was different because the boat was enclosed and they served a full meal with live music. It was a solo singer, and the songs were old but his voice was soothing as one person remarked, "his singing, the meal, the boat ride and sun......so relaxing". The singer was also narrator of what we were seeing. Cottages that were once very affordable - no more. There we were both Canadians and Americans learning how the islands were once divided. They had an American and Canadian representative on a boat deciding which island would belong to either. The only stipulation was that none could be divided. That is why there is a ziggly line between us. Imagine that happening now? Perhaps that should be done more often. I also recommend this cruise for visitors and perhaps spend some time to check out the city. The food was even better than the other cruises for me as a vegetarian. I had stuffed peppers which contained protein. Others who had chicken and beef were pleased with their meals. Some one asked for more bread (it was so good and fresh) but it was declined and the server took the last piece with her from our table (why would you do that?). Aside from the missing in action bread, I had small carrots (4) and mashed potatoes (what I loved - So good). For some reason the photos I took of the meal has disappeared. However I do have one of the cheese cake we got. When they talked about the portion of the water going to New York, I suggested we go there, but was out voted. That would have been fun. It was a beautiful day to say bye bye to summer.
