New news, you won't (well, maybe you will) believe... we were finally freed from our anchor mishap on Virgin Gorda at 5 pm yesterday, Tuesday. On to St. Bart's, our favorite port from our Caribbean cruise on the Navigator last year. While sitting on beautiful St. Jean's beach at the Eden Rock, where we had visited happily last year, my boyfriend of 4 years popped the question and presented me with an eye-poppingly gorgeous diamond ring. He had been waiting since San Juan, with ring in pocket, planning on proposing in St. Bart's ... the unexpected stay in Virgin Gorda had him a bit worried, but all worked out just perfectly. How's THAT for an eventful cruise? First the SUPERBOWL, then the inadvertent extended stay in Virgin Gorda, and now a partner for life!!! This is better than an Eagles victory!!! Stay tuned ... who knows what will come up tomorrow????

PS Ngaire .. we met your colleague and her delightful daughter at Don Vito's this evening. She's lovely... thank you for letting us know that they were on board.

WELL congratulations!!!!! That is so exciting. I bet he was bursting at the seams with the delay to St. Barts.
Yes, Jann and April are both lovely ladies. It is amazing how on a ship full of people that individuals meet that have a common bond. It seems to happen all the time. Jann has worked with me for years and is truly a lovely person. She doesnt even mind that I am always too busy to talk to her but every morning she gives me a happy " good morning".
We love your reports keep in touch and drink some bubbly for me to celebrate your engagement.

Terri, I add my congratulations as well! Wow, what a trip! I will never forget being on MINT with Masaki and Amanda and others in Signatures and hearing their big news about Amanda expecting a baby. I was so happy for them that I shouted it across the room to the other MINTER's. All those things in life happen onboard as well as off, but just seem more special. Good wishes go out to you and your intended!

Terri...this is one memorable cruise!
How romatic your guy must be, planning such a special way to "pop" the question. Best wishes to you both on your voyage through life together!
