I haven't been to sea since 1980. Should be interesting. Hope there will
be enough to keep me busy during the times at sea. Hope my mal de mer
follows previous trips and settles down after 24 hours. Hope for calm seas.
My trips for work were pretty boring during after work hours. I am
particularly interested in leaving and coming into dock, and will find a
good spot to watch that. One that I can see the pool from at the same time,
too.

Or is that ship? Anyway, a BIG boat.

Hope you have a great time, Steve. I'm thinking of surprising my wife
with a Disney Cruise this fall. I'm hoping Disney will have an Alaska
cruise soon.


Linblad has some great cruises in concert with National Geo.
Real ships, too...not those wedding cake cruise ships.
Also, for a real cruise on a real ship...try cunard's queen mary II...it
cruises the carib.
