Where are y'all - I'm missing you! Come back - please! Was it something I said?

Michael and I have had a few mishaps trying to stay on board. Our housemaid was told we were leaving in Seward so put on the 'time to go home' thingy on the bed, they cut off our internet and phone, gave us our tags, cancelled all excursions - need I go on? Bit of a disaster, but in spite of all their best intentions, we're still here!!

I'm minus my 'eyes' so all is a little blurred - no I have not been drinking (not today anyway). Hope I don't make too many typos!

The ship seems lost without you and like Betty, I've been seeing you all over the place.

Last night we apparently had some rough seas but apart from watching the waves in the dining room, don't remember too much about it. Now if that lasts for the rest of my cruise, I'll be one happy camper!

We hired a car in Seward and went for a drive to "Hope" but apart from seeing some lovely fall leaves, it was a case of 'now you see it, now you don't". We did enjoy the wild life centre there though.

Kodiak was a great surprise - I really enjoyed the tour I was on. We finished up at a school where a group of kids played the bongo drums for us. Absolutely brilliant! Of course nothing will touch Hubbard Glacier but this was unexpected and different.

We've been warned about the loss of the internet once we reach Japan, so don't think we've forgotten you if, after we get there, you don't hear from us.
