Not here yet in San Diego.

No dancing going on here in Williamsburg. Are they coming regular mail or Fed Ex? Can't remember, its been too long since we've been on a cruise.

Ours came Fed Ex

None in Midland

What a difference a day makes. I've got my doc dancing shoes on!

Darn. Still waiting here!!

FedEx delivered yesterday. Nice leather folder for Regent's 25th anniversary and 4 leather luggage tags.

Our Docs arrived yesterday by Fed Ex. Getting close now but we have one short cruise to do at the end of this month and then start getting our stuff together for this one.

Hmmm?
Still nothing??

same here, nada.

well the Eagle has landed and we have docs. Digging out our dancing shoes.

OK. Guess what arrived today!!!!

Wonderful! When will you start packing?

What do you mean start?
Almost finished.
No. Just kidding.
We have been known to pack the night before
we head to Billings to catch the plane.
Pretty much have an idea just need to wait and do it.

One month from today!!!!! So ready. Can't wait to see and sail Explorer.

Jim, please update our suite # - on advice of Ngaire and Clay, Pat and I upgraded to an F suite some time ago, to #926. We were on the Explorer over Christmas, but never got to see a G suite, so we don't know what we missed.

We're staying at the Embassy Suites at the Miami airport, and expect to have a full-size car (a Taurus) if anyone needs a ride on the 25th. We turn it in that night after the party and get a Regent transfer to the ship the next morning, so no help there.

See y'all in two weeks!

Done.

Getting very excited about the cruise. We leave for Miami a week from tomorrow. For what it's worth, I took a look at the weather (high temps) for the cruise. Basically, 80 in Miami, 70 in Bermuda and low 60's the rest of the trip.

Thank you too much Tom. This is very helpful.

Tom G, Thank you for sharing the weather for our cruise, it will help with packing. I am guessing it will be a a little cooler on the Atlantic. Angie

Miami bound next Saturday.

That soon, already!!!! I guess we will need to start packing Thursday or Friday.

See everyone soon!!!

I've been putting this off, but we're so sorry to say we've had to cancel this cruise. Jerry has been ill for a while and the doctor says no to travel. Can't say how disappointed I am, we were so looking forward to seeing everyone. We'll miss you a lot, but please send sea mail!

Oh Peggy. That is terrible news. Please tell Jerry to get well soon.

Hi Jim B - just to let you know that I do visit here occasionally. Checked to see if I could stay logged on. The system still isn't working well, but after 3 tries, I stayed on long enough to post.

See you next week

Jackie

Peggy, we're not on this cruise, but I just wanted to say I'm so sorry that Jerry has been ill and you had to cancel. Hugs to you both!

Oh, Peggy. I am so sorry. Was sure looking forward to seeing you all again. Give Jerry my best. Hope he is better very soon.

Peggy

Was looking forward to having you in the next cabin

Take care

So sorry to hear Jerry is not feeling well. You both will be missed.
Carolyn and Don

Oh Peggy - So sorry to hear this, we were so looking forward to seeing and cruising with you two again, been awhile since Azamara. Sure hope Jerry gets better soon.

We leave a week from today.....getting excited. Have been organizing things and will start the actual packing first of the week. See everyone very soon now.

So sorry to hear this Peggy. You and Jerry will sure be missed. I hope Jerry will be feeling better soon.

I join the chorus of those sorry people who will miss Jerry and Peggy on this cruise. Particularly since I have cruised on many adventures with them in the past several years! Best wishes to you, Jerry, for a speedy recovery!

So sorry to hear about Jerry. Peggy please give him our best for a speedy recovery.

I was hoping he would recover enough in time and we will miss them both for sure. They are "icons" of cruising. As I mentioned at Rodeo Jerry and Peggy were on the VERY FIRST GROUP TRIP I ever did. It was on the Song of Flower in the Med, and MANY trips since then.

As most of you know, you rarely hear from me unless we are ready to board a ship! Well, here we are, and we will see you Saturday!!!

Thanks for all the good wishes. Hopefully Jerry will be on the mend soon. In the meantime, I'll be living for the seamail -- keep it coming.

Let the packing begin!!!!

packing - packing - packing.

Oh oh. Now if we can only get the lid closed! LOL.
