Peggy, passports just delivered! Brazilian visas dated 9-24 so we are good to go! India is there as well so that problem is behind us!

Now that I'm more calm, things don't look so bad. The "strike" at Lufthansa was last summer...guess I'll pay more attention to the date on the web page! And, we will just take our luggage with us. Only one large suitcase, the others are smaller and manageable with some room for "stuff".

I think it will be a "martini" tonight...have had the 2 year grandson all week and his parents get back tonight. We'll save the champagne for getting on the ship.

See you in Mumbai
