Okay, I have been faithfully lurking on this topic and the 9/28/02 topic as well.
First of all, I hope all is well with everyone. To all of you leaving next week, please have a great cruise and warm the ship up for me. John and I will be going on 10/19 with another couple to celebrate a 50th birthday, not mine!!
Second, we are considering this cruise for next year, but will not decide till spring, so we are maybe's.
It's been a little tough this year, physically. I had back surgery in April and cataract surgery in May. I guess I needed a spring tune-up.

All went well. I hope all of you are doing well but Papa, I was sorry to hear how you were feeling. The cruise should be good for you.
Take care and I promise to not lurk but post more.
