After a long journey - 2 days in Vegas, flight to Ft Lauderdale, collected car and drove home to Rome, we are finally home safe and sound, unpacked, laundry done. Still no closing date on house
SO fortunate in our table mates - the always charming AgentJ Family and the fun loving Kelli Steele family. Met some other lovely people with whom I will be making contact. Servers were AWESOME this trip (Claudia from Peru and Daniel from Poland.)
Thank you to the folks who left FE gifts, even though we weren't signed up for it. Can I just say I LOVE the recipes and mickey head cookie cutter?
Roaming Mickey Magnet...thank you to everyone who participated in this activity. After I dropped magnet off at the first door on first evening I really didn't see it till it showed up again on my door!
Here is the picture of the signed magnet:
What a wonderful souvenir, Lexa! Wish I had signed up to do it, but we were so overwhelmed by life before the cruise. For the first time, I basically did *nothing* on the cruise except crochet and read. 1 drawing class, 2 craft classes, no cooking classes, no lectures, no morning shows . . .
I really enjoyed the 2011 crossing. Now that being said, this cruise I think had the best service of any of the other cruises I have taken with DCL I think this cruise I truly became friends with some crew members. As a matter of fact I flew up to San Francisco today to see one of them. So yes this was a great trip and I really look forward to next years trip.

I agree with you, Alan, and I've had some good service in the past.
Cartagena was quaint. The port area was nice, pretty free from hecklers except I you wanted a taxi. The nice thing is there's are macaws, flamingos, and peacocks you can see for free. There is also cheap wifi right at the small port terminal. The old town and new town were nice but nothing that we would be dying to come back and see. Plus lots of people bothering you to buy items. The weather started dreary but got better. Now on to the crossing.
I love Cartegena and would like to spend some serious time there. Funny thing about "lots of people bothering you to buy items" . . . I noticed the same thing in Mexido and even Las Vegas the other day!

Richard & Anne, I have a couple cute photos of you with them if you'd pm your email address.
Will any of you be on the 2014 WBTA or the follow on Southern Caribbean from San Juan?
Happy Day, all!
