The Azamara Journey pulled into Newport this morning. This is a smaller ship....only about 593feet. They're on a 12 day cruise from Manhattan. Newport today thru the Cape Cod Canal to Boston, Quebec City, ending in Montreal. Gorgeous day in Newport! Low 70s, a little breezy with sunshine.
Gorgeous sunrise this morning! A touch of wildfire smoke made it a bit more vivid. In Narragansett, I like the sun popping up over the ocean w/ a cruise ship moving in. The Lincoln pic looks like a scene from Star Wars. I like the pink halos on the EP & Newport pics.
