Cruise Lore
Tractors
There is typically an area dedicated to puzzles for attendees to put together, and a variety of Ravensburger puzzles were ordered for the cruise. Paul thought it would be amusing to order one of the puzzles featuring a retrospective of John Deere tractors. They received 13 of these puzzles. Paul shares this story in the morning announcements in the opening night concerts. The puzzles were given away as prizes during the cruise.
