COUNT DOWN

WOW    I knew the time would be going quickly about a month ago, Well, It is only two weeks and we will be flying off to Sydney to catch this big ship.   There have been some hiccups along the way with the state of the world as it is-hopefully they will be nice as we pass them by.
Really excited about what we are about to see, some I have seen on a previous trip, but things change and it will be lovely to see Rome again.     I don't think Bob realizes the extent of all this, but he has been working really really hard the past 3 months in particular, so he needs the break.  3 1/2 months will be quite a journey.
We have excursions in each port, except India's two. They wanted us to get a Visa at great cost and we weighed it up and said No.  We have kept the excursions as booked, maybe the cruise line will arrange something like a group visa-can't imagine how many people would feel as we do.
Harry is glad that the wait is almost over, with a small trip to Perth now. By the time he gets back it will be TIME.   Raelene and I are busy now starting to pack to see what we may get in just a suitcase each , will really have to be conservative with shoes. At least we will not have to worry about the cool weather clothes as it will be Summer all the way, except maybe Bergen,Norway.
I will sign out now.  We will be thinking of you......

  1. 17 days, 20 hours. Not long to go.
    I still think you should have paid for the visa to do the India excursions. You may never get another chance to do it. And remember, you can't take your money to the grave. :)
