Marcie, I am to board in Whittier and stay on to Tokyo. I have asked to begin in Vancouver as we have many people starting the entire cruise there and I think it would be important to connect up the whole Pacific Coast experience. Barry will begin there as well. Starting two weeks earlier - in time for MUSH - may or may not be possible due to other projects scheduled for me in the office. No doubt it would be fun - like a big family reunion! We just need Hans!
PS - What's the pretty black kitty's name?
