The seas are smooth as we make our way back to Baltimore for a Saturday arrival. Yeaterday in Halifax was AMAZING!! Staying adventurous is great. Yesterday's tour stops included the Victorian Garden which is the first in North America, the cemetery where 110 victims of the sinking of the Titanic are buried, and the quintessential town of Peggy's cove. And the weather could not have been better!

We had a fantastic day yesterday in St John New Brunswick. We took a tour that showed us the reversing falls, a unique natural wonder only found here in St John. We went at the beginning of our tour and the end of our tour so that we can see how the water reverses. Then we drove our way over to the Bay of Fundy and a little town of St Martins. We enjoyed an amazing seafood lunch and a walk on the ocean floor. Then it was back to the ship for a private cocktail party for our Redstone group, followed by wear white night at dinner. Lots of new friendships are being made, the seas are now calm, and we are having a wonderful time. Today we are off to Halifax. Stay adventurous!

Call us crazy but by special request we have added another trip in November! Redstone is going to New York City via Amtrak from Sunday, November 17 - Wednesday, November 20th! There are only 32 spots available for this trip so don't sleep on this one. Here are the details:

We will meet at the Redstone Greensburg Parking Lot before departing for the Greensburg Station to catch an 8:10 am Amtrak train to NYC, arriving at about 5 pm. Leaving the station, we will walk as a group to our hotel for the next three nights, the Holiday Inn in Times Square. Sunday evening will be free to enjoy on your own. Monday and Tuesday will also be spent exploring on your own, but we will be offering an optional Hop-On Hop-Off Bus tickets to explore the city on Monday (anticipated to be $60 or less) and tickets for the 9/11 Museum on Tuesday ($33 for those under 65 and $27 for those over 65.) Transportation throughout the city is on your own during our stay, since we are traveling by train and won’t have a bus available. Our hotel location will provide you with lots to do if you prefer just to walk about the city!

Trip prices include an incredible Tuesday evening group activity. At 5:30 pm we will enjoy an Italian buffet at Trattoria Trecolori, a Redstone favorite from previous trips. We then have orchestra seat tickets to see SUFFS on Broadway. Suffs is a stage musical with music, lyrics, and book by Shaina Taub, based on suffragists and the American women's suffrage movement, focusing primarily on the historical events leading up to the ratification of the nineteenth amendment to the United States constitution in 1920. The show opened on Broadway on April 18, 2024 at the Music Box Theatre. It received positive reviews from critics and 6 nominations at the 77th Tony Awards, including Best Musical, winning two, for Best Book and Best Score. We are proud to say that Redstone has a connection with this musical, since Shaina Taub is the sister-in-law of our VP for Home and Community Based Services, Geoff Gehring.

An optional activity is also available for Monday evening. We will enjoy a group dinner (most likely at an Irish pub) and then see the show “What a Wonderful World.” This brand new musical will open on November 11th and tells the story of Louis Armstrong through his own music. Price for this dinner and show will be $130 per person.
