Mary, the three year old granddaughter of ninety year old
Mitch loved this place on the terrace where she could see the ships and the
cruises. The best thing about this was the story that her grandpa ha told her a million times, a story that never gets old for Mary. A story she would remember for life.

Mary “Grandpa,tell the story”
Mitch with a smile “Again?”
Mary “yes yes, pleeease”
Mitch
“This was not a port 70 years back. It was a small deck, with chairs. I and my friends drank & played cards here. One night,a very pretty girl was sitting alone on the edge of this deck”
“This was not a port 70 years back. It was a small deck, with chairs. I and my friends drank & played cards here. One night,a very pretty girl was sitting alone on the edge of this deck”
with a far away look he said “That night, I fell in love with your great grandmother,
sweetheart”
