AN ISLAND A DAY

Angie writes,
We have just completed wirlwind tours of St. Croix, St. Kitts, Dominica and Dominican Republic in the last 6 days and are on our last leg of the trip to Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. It doesn't seem like we have been on the ship for 21 days. I would like to update you on the fact that Blaine has spent the entire 21 days in t-shirts that were bought from different ports-of-call because he still does not have his luggage and does not know where it is. He has been an extremely good sport about the whole thing.
Mark is doing quite well considering the fact that he has had a serious lack of "American Hershey bars" and stated last night at dinner that when he gets past customs he will sprinting to the nearest shop to get a Hershey's Chocolate Bar, or two or three.
Chris is starting to strongly consider purchasing a motorhome to travel the US, and I suspect one of her motives is the ability to take Rosie along on her vacations.
I would like to say that even though we had quite a few problems and criticisms regarding this cruise in the beginning, we have had a great time and experiences to talk about for a lifetime.
Thank you Chris and Blaine for being such good traveling companions. Having had little or no contact with someone for over 20 years and then spending every day together for 3 weeks really is a trial by fire and I think we came out of this with flying colors.
