One of the greatest joys Pat and I got from the various chat lines was to visit some the members . A few years back we drove to East coast and met with , PhilB,King Tott,Bobgggg, Big Jose,Sneeky37, David Giles, Ottawa Mike , Puzzler,Doodles. and we were lucky enough to be invited to there club nights. this year we are doing the same only a little longer . to celebrate our 50th Wedding anniversary we are taking a cruise to Alaska where I hope to meet with Dor and or Missjudy ( I will email them separately)then on to the Grand Canyon about the first part of June . From there we will visit Las vegas , over to Louisiana , Florida, New york, Cape Code for a game of cards , Nova Scotia to visit my Younger Sister,onto Ottawa to visit with "Happy Jack" and "Ottawa Mike" then to Toronto to have A tea with "Glorian" In Hamilton I hope to meet up with "Doodles" and D1Stamper" then home (Whew) I would love to stop and have a chat and a "Cuppa" with anyone on our trip. Let me know ,I will try to fit it in .

If you want to paddle the Atlantic and Meditterranean, the Falafel will be waiting ! Or maybe it's not en route...need to check !  Seriously, have a great time. I think most of those names you mentioned will be foreign to members here but even so..... Londonbus1....looking for my atlas !  |

Is your Alaska cruise starting or ending in Vancouver? If so, then how many days (or hours) are you planning to visit this great city? |

In America there is a poet who said that if you are young, do not go to Alaska, for it will ruin your sensibilities, but if you are old, then you are prepared for the wonderful sights. I think I am just about old enough. :D
I am glad you had a great vacation Mr. Djd. |

I sailed with Norwegian as well. It was the final voyage of the "wind" My only complaint was that the ice cream bar was shut down. Lol. I'm younger and was in awe of everything I did and had seen up there. We had gone crab fishing, canoeing to glaciers, and salmon bakes. |
