"Inner Turmoil" - April 8, 2022

#1

Post by Wendy Walker »

This afternoon I am filling in for our Cruise Director who is busy signing papers.

The answer to this week’s contest crossword is a word that (I hope) describes this puzzle’s wordplay.

Best of luck to all Muggles!

EDIT: On shore! I am posting here to free up a coveted Page 1 spot.

Solved and ashore! There's very pleasant company here already I see - Guinness please?

(Addendum: It's National Burrito Day. Pairing a burrito with a Mexican lager later. Decisions decisions...)

Whew, that was a struggle, but I'm on shore. It took me several passes before the light began to dawn. This is a good thing after I couldn't really do last week's due to traveling, so it's nice to be back on track.

Solved. That was exactly what I thought the answer could be before solving.

And a shout out to my daughter, who has now arrived - she is at Searchlight TV and has been working on "The Dropout" (at 60 down).
