Cruise 2009 Wednesday
We left San Maarten Tuesday evening and would spend all day today cruising to our last port of call, Labadee. The sun was out, the sky cloudless, and our next port was not very far away so we cruised at a slower speed keeping the headwinds very tolerable. In other words, another perfect [...]

Saturday- Ship Ahoy!
Larry had already gone down to the gym to work out by the time I woke, nothing unusual in that. When I finally got moving and down stairs, he and Jon were having coffee. As no one else was up and around, I went to the gym to get in a workout before [...]

(I know. You though I’d be updating every day, so did I, but since Larry didn’t bring a computer and internet access costing $1.00 per minute, it just didn’t happen. Deep regrets and all that but here we go back 8 days in time.)

Well, I’m starting week #11 of 12 and am still alive to tell. It’s been hard. Big Time hard. I think Ransom said it best when he was here last week.
Ransom, 20 years and fit as a fiddle as they say, (how fit is a fiddle, anyway? Perhaps it should be Fit as a Marine, [...]
