Denise...I'm planning on a photo opportunity for "little fish" AKA Marika and her proud parents. I know we're going to have so much fun!

We had a beautiful start of the day, but before noon we ran into stormy weather. Showers for most of the afternoon and the seas are a bit rougher but nothing that bothers us...it will be interesting to see if the dining room is a bit quieter tonight.

Sadly, they asked for our disembarkation forms TODAY...more than a week before we leave, but we must see immigration in Honolulu so perhaps that's why - who knows.

I met with the Guest Relations Manager about our day off and then on the ship again. While they won't tell us very much, evidently a company has chartered the whole ship. They can't seem to tell us much more, but they will store all of our luggage and even will take everything on hangers on a cart so I don't have to worry about that. Unfortunately we have to leave the ship by 9:15 AM so may need a place to hang out until our ride to brunch arrives. I'm sure we'll figure something out. I asked if we could just stay in one of the lounges, but evidently Customs insists we leave the ship so that they can inspect our carryons/offs

We are still having a wonderful time - rain or not - the lectures and nap time seem to be carrying the day! Off to dinner now with Wendy and Frank.

Bye,
