Peggy, we, too, wish you had stayed on to Montreal. It would have been wonderful to see you. I'm surprised your cruise is full since it is a repositioner. NYC to Montreal is DEFINITELY sold out. We've received a dozen offers to switch. But that isn't in the cards for us since we will be cruising for the first time with friends of 30+ years we've never traveled with before. At the end of the cruise we're going on to Toronto and Winnipeg to visit friends. I'm glad you have Jerry tamed!!!!
Glad service and food is up to standard! We haven't cruised for a couple of years (land trips in Vietnam-Cambodia and Northern India), so we are really ready to indulge.
Another Kathy, we'll definitely post some sea mail, particularly if something newsworthy comes up. My guess is most readers of this board have already done NYC-Montreal. So "newsworthy" might be hard to come by.
