CynthiaRI Posted July 11, 2018 #26 Share Posted July 11, 2018 Just ordered my copy from Amazon. Apparently it was the last one in stock. Suspect all the others have gone to readers of this thread :D LOL! You're probably right! I ordered yesterday and it shipped out that same day. Crossing fingers it arrives by Tuesday. I didn't pay for extra shipping, deciding to risk it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Germancruiser Posted July 12, 2018 #27 Share Posted July 12, 2018 It is all mentioned, it is all written- but don´t forget - simply doing " nothing and nothing at all" can be heaven. Let your soul drift look out to the sea and enjoy...! One thing though, once you have crossed the pond on board the one and only true ocean liner- you are spoiled for any other ship that is doing so and will be most probably disappointed!

Aquaphobic Posted July 12, 2018 #28 Share Posted July 12, 2018 Bring along a copy of John Maxtone-Graham's "The Only Way to Cross" (the copy in the library will probably be gone by the time you get there), find a nice proper deck chair and unless it's pouring with rain, sit outside and savour the subtle pleasures of a good book, the damp salt air of the North Atlantic and the most sublime of all destinations: mid Atlantic on an ocean liner. Your post has caused the level of excitement I feel for my upcoming back-to-backs in August to go up a notch. Several notches, actually. I need deck chair therapy NOW!

tommy k Posted July 12, 2018 #31 Share Posted July 12, 2018 I am getting my copy off of eBay. It will be arriving next week. My back to back - NYC - Southampton- NYC sails on Easter Sunday. M909A. I am looking forward to the book, read it now or save it? I am trying not to start packing my bags as yet. Antsy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaxcad Posted July 12, 2018 #32 Share Posted July 12, 2018 Hi Katie We'll be on that sailing and we will have our 17 year old with us too - he is so worried he will be the only teen on the ship so happy to hear he won't be! Read all the great tips - lots more to do that we thought! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fourmile.ranch Posted July 14, 2018 #34 Share Posted July 14, 2018 Our copy arrived today also! Like-new condition from Amazon. For $5 we may leave it for an extra copy in the library. Thanks for the suggestion Kohl57! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
