PAID!

The payment was due in September for the cruise.  This made it for REAL.  We have spent hours looking over the cruise itinerary and port of calls to decide what excursions we will be taking.  It is becoming more exciting with each day.  We are now two months away.

And the clothes requirements are the next challenge.  Lots of formal and semi-formal nights to figure out clothing and then all the different excursions.  Need to loose a few pounds before the cruise.  People ask aren't you concerned about gaining weight?  Actually on cruises we are really good about taking the stairs and exercising so the delicious meals don't catch up with us.  Even more important when you pack for a cruise like this - don't want to have a problem with clothes not fitting!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Purpose

I'm starting a fresh blog for our 2012 World Cruise. The Cruise is on Cunard's Queen Elizabeth leaving January 18, 2012 out of New York City. This is a 'bucket list' trip and also a celebration of our BIG 65 & 60 birthdays. Lots of thought planning going on right now. And of course, the second deposit is needed by Cunard on June 1. There will be more details posted here as things start coming together.

Starting this blog - makes it real!
