Thanks to everyone that responded and gave me insight into the ports of call. I am very excited. I think I was just in shock and overwhelmed at the suddeness of it because he had kept the contest quiet from me for almost a year so I knew nothing about it. He must have planned this all along because I usually am privy to information like this.

I have the best boss.
Alexandrew,
I am a compulsive planner and I was really shocked by the offer. It has sunk in now, dh just received approval for the 8 days off and I am already starting to think about what to pack.

I hope you dis'ers do not think I am an ingrate...the offer was so sudden and I had no clue it was coming. I never have considered myself "lucky" in the gambling sense of the word...never win contests or lottery etc but I am so fortunate to have a wonderful dh, great dsis and dbil, wonderful friends on the DIS board and a great boss that appreciates his employees.
Heidi,
I will be sending you a pm in a month or so to get some more info on excursions. Thanks for the offer.
Nancy
