👋Hello gymfreak! Thanks so very much for your very sweet compliments. I'm truly thrilled that my blog has made you extra excited for your cruise next month. Enjoy every moment!!! I'm sure you will!😃

👋Hello again AnyWayIsGood! Yes! As you said.. go big! Great idea! Treat yourself!🤩 I'm not sure my husband agrees with me on this but I will work on that. A funny friend once said "if you don't fly first class your children will." Also.. nothing better than a strong tail wind.. it's funny how a flight time being even just a half an hour shorter makes the cheerful meter bounce up! I have Mamsens on my list for next time.👌 Wow.. didn't realize what you were talking about RE the Invitational cruise.. must have been very emotional. I have seen videos on youtube about the incident. Yikes. Glad your suitcase caught up with you in Barcelona! I always try and check to see where the luggage is on the Delta app and then breathe a sigh of relief when it says "on the plane." Thanks about the departure pix. Usually we cruise in the fall and it's dark out when we are getting ready to take off. The flight to Athens left at 5:20 so it was a pleasure to have all that daylight to try and get a good plane pic. And I agree 100% about taking pix thru the window.. sometimes it's all about the smudges and there is nothing you can do to make it better. Other times they come out crystal clear as in the Swiss Alps pic on the way home.. like I was sitting on the wing phone in hand.😁

Hellooooooo to all the Viking fans on the board! We are just back from an absolutely fantastic 7 day "Ancient Mediterranean Treasures" sailing from Athens to Istanbul. Just flew home yesterday and the smiling has not stopped. Although exhausted and jet lagged.. I am truly anxious to get started on the incredibly happy tale of our absolutely SKYMAZING seven days on the Sky. It's 2am here in New York.. Due to the 7 hour time change and the fact that I couldn't make myself stay up past 7:00pm last night I'm up and ready to write! Come sail with us!
