As you will notice later on, the Silver Cruise took various modes of transportation to complete. And, it took three days... But, it looks like they all enjoyed themselves.

Just as they were having fun in 1993, let us have fun with it today. Help me identify some of the faces on the pictures.

I will post numbered pictures... about a dozen at a time... It will be fun!
