Liz and Darec - I'm very late in wishing you a very warm welcome to LCT!!!! So glad to have you join in. Ray said it so well (he always does!) about you both being into saving lives. Kudos to you both!!

Liz, I'm looking forward to meeting you at the May 1 Queen Mary Brunch. I love all your critter stories. We've always had cats. Our last 4 have been either rescued (abandoned or lost) or adopted from the animal shelter. It feels so good to help out a furry critter who needs a home so badly.

As for your upcoming cruise. . . as far as I'm concerned, you'll have the best of both worlds - the Navigator (my first ship) and Tahiti (will be my new love in May!). I bet you can't wait!!

Darec, I want to thank you also for your past service to our country. I take my hat off to you. You have definetly earned some fun on the PG in Sept!!! Where and what ship was your first cruise?

Welcome to both of you!!!!
