The world cruise is over and I am typing this on the 2nd day. In other words the day after Fort Lauderdale. What a difference and quite sad that there are so few I know on the ship. Only 33 passengers continued and I have seen about 11 of them. A lot of staff are the same but there are a lot of new ones.

The crowd is a little younger but mostly couples. I have not seen that many singles. I was exhausted and losing my voice so I went to bed right after dinner and did not go to the single event. The Barrys were at our table and a new couple who are very nice and quite witty. I will get their names soon.

Before dinner I met a gay couple Craig and his friend and enjoyed talking to them. A couple of Aussies. We have about 600 Canadians. I also met a Canadian couple who are fun names Paul and Ann. So I am meeting new people. I also met a young man who is traveling with extended family including aunts and grandparents.

Tonight is a formal night so it will be interesting to see if everyone dresses. We will have four formals. In all.

I received a bottle of champagne, chocolate dipped strawberries and two dinners at the Pinnacle so I combined them and will invite someone to join me.

I have lost my voice again and hopefully will have it back soon.

  1. Hi, Judi --

    Where are you headed to next? Is the ship making its way back to Seattle area?

  2. I am not surprised you are making new friends, but I know the first day or two after FL was strange. I hope you see the Duchess of the Stairwells in San Diego. I assume you'll be on until Seattle --- and home again, home again! I am still quite green with envy that you've had this marvelous trip. Don.

  3. Judi, just can't get off the ship can you. After all the places you've been this year a trip along Mexico will seem old hat. Enjoy and hope you feel better soon.
