Sorry I have been absent from posting but it has been a big undertaking to have this event. Seeing light now at the end of the tunnel. Clay, Brooke, Ken and I are going in two days early to be sure all the arrangements for the welcome dinner at the Kimberley Hotel will be well organized. We will be providing bus transfer to the ship for those staying at the Kimberley and we will be having a welcome lunch in Compass Rose after embarkation.

We are getting close to being ready. Taylor has been working non stop with all the details and we are bringing gift bags for everyone. FOUR 34" SUITCASES are FULL. Shipping these suitcases directly to the ship, they will be picked up on Friday.. A big push here to day Taylor has got a lot of the administrative staff helpiing with the final printing and packaging of all the "stuff"..

We do have CHEF JEFFREY KOLLINGER onboard a well known chef who will do cooking demonstrations and cooking a special lunch for us being served in the Compass Rose on a sea day. Should be wonderful. He will be active in the KLT programs onboard. Super nice guy located in Dallas and he sent the KLT staff a wonderful lunch which we all enjoyed.

121 guests on the April 10 sailing and 60 on the April 24 sailing. Dining with people every night and every lunch and looking forward to connecting with those we know and meeting new people as well.

Been a lot of work and now we are almost finished and can just look forward to a wonderful cruise with lots of fun with all the KLT guests.
