Hi everyone.

Well we are off to a nice start. WONDERFUL weather, seas calm and the sun is shining. Nice to see Captain Dag again we have not sailed with him for a long time.

Ken's brother Richard and our sister in law Lori are on board and we had a family dinner tonight and enjoyed it very much. We only live about 4 houses away from each other but never seem to spend anytime together, so it was nice to have this time this evening. A fantastic dinner tonight of lobster and beef wellington.

I have met almost everyone now, Cindy came over tonight and introduced herself and her husband David, so I only have a few left to meet. There are quite a few on this trip that I have never met before.

Lovely to see Ralph and Carol, Pat and Ray, Frank and Wendy again.

We taught Frank and Susan to play pooch today. Both Susan and Frank are on Dragon so they will ready to take the Pooch challengers on when we have some time on the Vietnam trip.

Bobby and Marti watched but did not take the plunge yet. Somehow I missed getting in touch with Pat and she loves pooch, I have barely seen her since we boarded but we are having dinner tomorrow night. The cruise is young we will be sure she gets her pooch fix.

Another surprise for us was Gerry the entertainer from the Diamond who used to be one of the stars in Don Vitos. He is a really fantastic entertainer and is playing in the Observation lounge. He is amazing with the sounds that he makes into the microphone. You would swear a trumpet was being played. So we are really enjoying him in the evening.

Tomorrow Geiranger and I hope the weather holds, it is truly one of the most beautiful spots in the bright sunlight.

Be back later.
