Chita Rivera

We were very surprised to find out that Chita Rivera, who has won 2 Tony awards, would be our entertainment on our last formal night of the cruise. She gave an excellent performance. Really a special treat to see her in person. Someone onboard who had a career on Broadway told us he'd met her years ago and she must be in her late 80's. According to her talking about her life, she would be about 84. Wonder if she stretched the age somewhere. She played Anita in the original version of West Side Story 50 years ago this year. Wonderful.
As for my blog, sorry I've been so lax in adding our ports to it. The last week has gone by so quickly. We are in the final stages of packing about 28 boxes and suitcases. I think we'll be ready to disembark tomorrow! When we get home, I promise to write about our last 4 ports. We went out with a bang with St Bart's, what a beautiful island. I also plan to get pictures online so those interested can take a look. That might take a while to do. Please email me if you want the address for the pics once they are done. kchew3 on aol.com
