Sunrise and Morning at the Manhattan Cruise Terminal (New York City), September 15th, 2023 Our weird first day of our two week cruise to Greenland.  This is the sunrise and the morning on the Jewel as we were docked at the Manhattan Cruise Terminal (Pier 88) in New York City.  On board the Royal Caribbean Jewel of the Seas for a grand 14 day cruise to Greenland (September 14th through 28th, 2023).  The cruise embarks from Cape Liberty (Bayonne, NJ) with an actual stop in Manhattan (a delay leaving NYC caused by Hurricane Lee); Nuuk, Qaqortoq & Nanortalik in Greenland; St.John's, Newfoundland before heading back to New York City.  Was a grand adventure!
