So sorry to hear that Howard. Yes, isn't our Marsha wonderful? I too have avoided this thread, as I have such mixed feelings. Neither of us amoke, but it sure has not kept us from spending time with people we like. It has really never been an issue for us. Maybe because our friends on Regent and at home are so considerate. This really is a shame. Joanna, I think I told you on Fjords, that compared to good friends of mine that are full time smokers, you don't really have a smoking habit. Just a coctail thing I think. Howard, I truly hope you enjoy your cruise on Celebrity. Take care.
