Thanks for that report Pat. We drove around the island and saw the Four Seasons resort, thought about coming over to day hi to you both. Sounds like you scored really well with that room. All things were working in your favor on this trip it seems.

So glad Prime Rib won. Those top three were so good as was Pablo. They all deserved to win really.

If they do a video PLEASE someone buy me one and I will repay you. I know the proceeds go to the crew fund so that makes me happy as well.

I heard from Franck they gave the crew a big party afterwards that made me smile. They sure deserved it. Best entertainment I have ever seen.

Continue to keep the Mariner fires burning Jim and we look foward to future posts so I can continue to sail along with your through your blog and posts. I have not read your blog since I got on the ship need to go back to that again.

I wish Ken and Sheila a nice trip home to Noosa and the Jim and Pam have a wonderful time in Tasmania.

Miss you all
