The Group of Eight
Well this will be the last post for a little while.
It was a wonderful cruise and we are so very glad that we went.
We made new friends and had a wonderful time.
Here is a big thanks to our table mates.
The Fabulous group of Eight!!
We Disembark
Well we are home.
I can't believe how quickly we got home.
The disembarkation went so smoothly.
We waited in the wheel house bar until it was our time to disembark. We saw Bill and Linda and Marion and Joan there but we did not see Gordon or Barbara
.
As soon as our group was called we proceeded to the gangway and about 15 minutes later we were in a Taxi headed for Kerri's. Everyone was super effecient. We were met by a porter right away and he helped us find our suitcases, he loaded them on a trolley and he took us to the taxi area and hailed a van for us. That was the best ten dollar tip we could have spent. It was so easy and we did not have to lift a finger.
Soon we were at Kerri's. Leo had gone down for his morning nap but Emmie was awake and so we got to visit with her. We were shocked by how much she has grown. She chatted with me and was ever so pleasant.
We headed home with Wayne and Carol in the back seat and again our luck was great. There were no tie ups and we were home in a flash. We delivered Wayne and Carol to their door and then we were on our way home again.
When we arrived at the door there was a parcel waiting for us.
Someone was oh so kind and they dropped off an old Television to add to Ken's collection.
I don't know who you are but I WILL get you.
This cruise began with lots of smiles, continues with more laughs than we have ever had in a 2 week period and ended with a good laugh as well. Thanks Matt!!

Well our last day was busy with packing and saying good bye but having fun none the less.
It was raining and the wind was blowing and it was cold. Actually it was quite nasty but since we had to pack it wasn't so bad.
Our dinner on the last night has the parade of the chefs and the Baked Alaska which is traditional with Princess. We enjoyed our last dinner with our new friends. After dinner we gave our tips to the waiters and said our good byes. Service was exceptional and they really did deserve the extra tips.
After dinner we went to the Internet Cafe where Carol tried to help Barbara get her boarding passes printed. While they were on the computers Ken and I presented Gordon with 2 bottles of beer inside a pair of Princess Mules. Teasing him about the perks of the Black Card.. So much laughter was had this week.
Next we went to the theater for the evening show. We finished the evening in the usual way by having a specialty coffee at the International Cafe. That was the end of our card. We had timed it just right.
Tomorrow we disembark:-(
