Our Beautiful World

While Kate is busy writing all the quips and one liners - I'm starting to get a little more retrospective so indulge me for a minute - or close the page, whichever works for you.

A funny thing happens on Day 15 of your vacation. You start to get real relaxed and real comfortable living this simple life....breakfast, lunch, and dinner are provided...take a tour sometime during the day....soak in a hot tub....read your book...find a quiet spot on the ship where no one will find you.....check email if and when you want to....check your bank balance online to be sure you can still be away from work....stroll through the shops.....sit and have a drink...wander out on deck and stare at the ocean...life is short and we all need to slow down and just look around - the world is a magnificent place if only we would take the time to notice.

We have had such a great getaway and we really feel like we have seen and experienced lots of Alaska. Forgive us when we are daydreaming a bit next week - you know where our heads will be for awhile....Betsy
