fly,wait, fly wait, fly wait, sail, tour, fly wait fly...2008
As requested, here is a more complete photo journal of the cruise. If we looked stressed out in some shots, we were... but it's all part of the experience. Between the three couples, we killed 3 cameras... so the last leg of the odyssey is burnt into our brains- and cell phones. It was fabulous, but very good to get home to the snowy mountains.

We're home now. But if we knew then what we know now, would we have ventured out? Probably.
The company was great. The ship was huge! The water was fabulous (but not for drinking). Everyone had too much- sun, food, shopping, waiting on lines and travel snafu`s.
We learned: 1-our travel agent hates us, 2-always pack a carry-on with a day's supplies, 3-keep a sense of humor or at least a sense of the ridiculous. 4-Apply the rule of fives, "Will it matter five _______ (seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, years) from now?" - before you speak -even to a stranger... you might see them again and again in some line. 5-sunscreen is a good idea.
Below is a picture of how happy we looked when we found out our luggage would be taking the same trip as us- even if it went by a different route and schedule!
