I am going on yet another two week Alaska cruise tomorrow morning, this one on a small luxury ship to use the future cruise credit we received from the cancellation of the Amazon leg of our Antarctica cruise just before the pandemic. They never notified me I had it until 30 days before it was going to expire. I think we are both all packed.
The ship is Seabourn Odyssey, and it does now have included internet, so I may very well visit the clubhouse daily.

Good morning and happy Saturday! Happy holiday to you too, Dean. And thanks for offering to sub. I appreciate it. I don't want you to feel you have to but I am sure they are glad you want to. Luke is turning 7! How does it happen so fast?! Also I am going to Vegas in September for a wedding so there will be a few days then too. I am also going to see Barry Manilow there and I am beyond excited. I am going to Fanilow the heck out of that show. And Juju, I try.
