Hi Mark - Many thanks for keeping us posted, wondering if you get CNN on board. They are covering the storm, and Baltimore is a real mess! Actually the whole NE coast is. Great pics. you posted of the angry sea, I think in your previous life you must have been a sailor !!!!

Stay safe, and thanks again.

So very sorry to hear of the Spa hot stone ''treatment'' and sending happy, healing thoughts. Glad you had it checked out, now lets enjoy this awesome cruise!!! The pictures are so spectacular, I can hardly wait till you are on board. Will be glued to the Port Fever cameras for your sail away. I will be waving, and here in sunny southern Saskatchewan, Canada we are in a SNOWFALL advisory.

Have a blast, we sure will.

Hi Bill and Maryann - So glad you are doing the Disney cruise following your awesome World and sharing with us. I checked the Disney Wonder site and surprised to see it offers so many 'adult only' dining areas and pools, and of course bars. We are anxious to hear if you take advantage of them and your impressions. Once again thanks a million for doing this, love, love it. And you.

Hey Bill & Maryann - the Disney Wonder has just departed, woo hoo, still following you after the full circle world on Amsterdam (whew) and have loved every minute..mile.klm..meter, whatever. Enjoy your last 2 weeks, will for sure be a younger crowd you are with. Have fun!!! I know I will. Thanks so much again for sharing.

I have, dear friend Mark, loved every minute of this cruise with you... as usual. Great pictures and such a gorgeous, beautiful ship she is. Felt rather sad when I saw your latest 'position of the Quantum' and realized this cruise is almost done. Boo Hoo. Anyway, a hundred thanks for taking the time from your vacation to keep we poor land-locked followers happy. Luv ya. xxx from dm
