Murphy's Law -- well, could have been!

Down to 5 days and yet so much to still do. Have the house almost ready for our housesitters. They are in Florida now and will be staying at a place temporarily until we leave.
Had a beautiful brand-new piece of luggage for the trip. Filled it up to capacity and as I lifted it up onto our bed, it burst at the seams spewing our clothes everywhere. Can you imagine if that happened at embarkation, or in the airport terminal? Glad it happened at home. Remember, do not buy luggage at an outlet center. That's probablly why it was sold at an outlet.
Thought I would lose a few pounds before the cruise, but I actually gained a few pounds (aargh!!!). This doesn't bide well for me. Hope this is not a sign of things to come. I do love to exercise, so maybe the weight is muscle (LOL).
Have a one-way car rental to take us to Port Everglades. We pick up on Tuesday, the day before departure.
Have made lots of friends on this cruise already. found them on www.cruisecritic.com. Great site for folks who love cruzin.
Speaking of cruzin, this will be the longest cruise for us. Only other "long" cruise was 15 days around South America. Loved it.
Well, time to go. Maybe my better half will post something.

  1. I have not had any luck with adding an email subscription device to my blog for this cruise so friends can sign up and automatically be notified when we post. Any ideas? are your followers being notified?
