I raise my glass in a toast to all CROSSERS!!!  I'm also dancing because I finished up all my transactions at work today, not taking any more on because I wouldn't be able to finish them. Another escrow co-ordinator will now take over until I return. I can go in Monday and pick up checks. The best part, of course. Got lots to do around here, but should be pretty stress free and that I can handle. Hip Hip Hooray <img border="0" alt="[beer]" title="" src="graemlins/beer.gif" /> Shirley

Fabulous, Denise. You got them! Yep, that pouch is beautiful. That soft grey bag will no doubt hold a pair of my shoes. Do you think we are getting excited? And, yes, there is always a reward for hard work. This is it. <img border="0" alt="[bounce]" title="" src="graemlins/ubbbounce2.gif" /> Shirley

Nini What a great idea to cross both ways. We did the eastbound crossing on QM2 a couple of months ago and loved it!

I'm going to have to experience a few more sea days before I commit to a crossing. I've had at most 2 I guess, although we had several partial sea-days as well on both Voyager and Navigator. We have 3 seadays on the PG next year, if we go, 2 on Voyager this December. So we're just practicing!

Hi Don,
Thank you for your good wishes.
It saddened me to hear you were not coming with us. I was looking forward to meet you and Diana and taking part in your "Murder Mystery"!. So I'm also :mecry: .
But I trust that in the not too distant future I'll be able to share with you in a cruise or on a land GTG.

Can you guys believe that we are almost ready for the big "CROSS"? One week from tomorrow (Sunday) I will be packing and probably getting frustrated trying to stay within the weight limit. If you see me twice in the same outfit, "Oh well."

We began "Packing Central" today.
Shirley, No need to worry. You'll look marvelous regardless of whether you wear a different outfit a day or the same outfit numerous times. It's a given that I will be seen more than once in the same, or very similar, outfits. It really doesn't matter, does it? ;)
We're all almost outa here! :bv:
