Modlin,

I keep looking at the weather for Alaska...my daughter and son in law leave in less then a month for Anchorage...I know it doesn't get as cold there as where you are though....I stocked them up on L L Bean super warm stuff for Christmas..

To everyone who is getting ready to leave..safe travels!!! We leave 6:30 am on Friday...yuck...

If we don't see you at the port somehow, I will see you on Sunday!!

I am sure all the warm stuff will help them acclimate to the winter in Anchorage. I take it they are getting stationed at Elmendorf? You will have to go visit them. Alaska is gorgeous in the summertime! Land of the midnight sun.

Good news! It warmed up to about 0 degrees today. That is warm for here! Pretty sad, isn't it. I cannot wait to feel that warm Caribbean sun...

Woohoo, we got a package from DCL today saying that our next cruise was just around the corner. Now we can start planning our June 1 cruise before we even start the January cruise.

Good luck everyone on getting to the port. We'll see you there! I expect we'll be the last ones on this board since we aren't leaving until Saturday morning.

Well, there is now a winter warning up for the Raleigh/Durham area for tomorrow. Here's hoping it stays away long enough for our flight out. I am never flying down the morning of a cruise again!!!

Hi Guys,

We made it home OK as well, tho, I had to park in the road as I had to snowblow the driveway before we could get in. We had 14" of snow while we were gone (along with the cold).

Amy, if I could, I'd like one of the group pictures. I'll PM you with my address.

Thanks,
Brett
