New port of call for Princess Cruise Line

Just listed in a PR, details to follow for 2024 cruises. Princess Cruise Lines to visit Colonial Williamsburg, Yorktown and Jamestown starting in 2024.

This may mean nothing to a few of you, but I spent approximately five of my six Navy years in this area. The birthplace of America in so many aspects. The history. The past. The Forever.

Jamestown has replica ships that sailed across the Atlantic (bunks to fit five feet tall sailors). Yorktown where Gen. George Washington helped the Colonies form independence. Williamsburg - the taverns, the historic buildings, historic walkways and peanuts with ale to satisfy your desires. The Colonial Parkway connecting the three cities. I love(d) this area. Especially at Christmastime with the Grand Illumination.

Per the following PR, I look forward to enjoying a cruise to these ports, once announced.

It was a nice thought for those of that would like to visit. Thanks for the update.

Sad update, I did not realize I initially posted this new port visit 11 months ago. Yorktown, Virginia has decided it did not like a cruise ship docking and visiting. A town of a few hundred was overwhelmed by 2,000 sudden guests. I have spent a lot of my life in Yorktown and the surrounding area. It is, and will always be, special to me. I respect their decision.
