We're Off

We're off.........out the door on Nov 07 & on our way to George's sister's place in Olympia, Washington, where we will leave our vehicle until we get back. We fly out of Seattle so they will drive us there & drop off our vehicle for us when we are returning.
First cruise ever for both of us......very exciting!
Trip to Cecelia & Nick's went without a hitch. We had dinner with them before our flight & we were off. American Airlines, let me tell you, doesn't hold a candle to Westjet. They were not available, not helpful, seated us 'apart' on the plane, just gave us a general 'un-cared-for' feeling. We had a small window in San Francisco to make our connection & found no help at all.....we just made it on time......phew!
The 07th was a very long day.......left Seattle at 8:15 pm; arrived in Miami at 7:30 am (with one connection). We couldn't get on the ship until around 1:00 pm so we occupied ourselves playing dice at Burger King with toothpicks holding our eyelids open. We boarded our ship 'Caranival Valor'.......had some lunch......a wee nap.......then up on deck to watch our departure and we were off..!
