God Ngaire - hope things work out and your get your luggage, well Ken gets his -- been there done that and spent the first night crying!! We were on Windstar, and everyone was so nice, shared stuff with us, the staff found stuff for us, but I felt so weird without my own clothes. In the same situation I would have happily shared with someone else. Anyway, we got lucky the luggage arrived the next day, and the ships hostess went to the airport and picked it up for us, and we were sitting at the bar, when half the passengers came up and started applauding and let us know our bags were there. I was so happy to see my own clothes, in spite of very generous passengers and staff.
Take care - have an asesome time/cruise.
