Hey Everyone, Thought I retire the "from the voyager" thread and start a fresh one the each segment of the WC. After a great sendoff, we are now at sea for six days. I miss Colleen and Ted but look forward to getting to know Marcie and Tom better. The seas are calm and the weather should warm up as we keep heading south. LA was cold. There is an early reception tonight for the Full World Cruisers in order for them to get there WC pins. I got mine last week on the precruise segment. Dinner will be with Marci and Ted. I cant wait to hear how she liked her first day.
Later, PAUL

Hi Paul
So glad you checked in. With all those sea days before you, do you have plans to do something special. Maybe you could take down your Christmas tree.
Get the post coming.

Well great suggestion but our Costco faker is still up - why not??? no water no needles - Paul we look forward to seeing you in Feb - Joanna

Paul,

Thanks for your post on the new segment. New adventures and new folks to meet! Love reading all about it. Keep them coming, please.

Betty

We miss you, too Paul. I actually had to cook my own dinner tonight and even clean the dishes. Yuck!

Colleen, the worst is when you come home and no one is there to hand you a glass of champagne!

Reality bites, doesn't it Colleen? Welcome home. Really enjoyed reading your posts!

Good hearing from you, Paul. I hope you have a fabulous time on the World Cruise with Marvelous Marcie and Terrific Tom, Beautiful Betty, and all the other great cruisers! Sorry, I've forgotten names.

Truthfully, the scale says I need to scale back (HA HA) on the champagne. Four pounds isn't so bad considering I ate about a month's worth of food in 17 days and easily drank about 6 months worth of alcohol (I usually have about a drink, maybe 2, each week and I had, counting wine with dinner, about 5 a day). If I was on for 4 months I would have to learn to say "no" or to get to the gym more.
