Hi Bill,

Barb and I just returned from a week in London and a 17 day cruise to Norway, Faroe Islands, Shetland Islands, Iceland and Nova Scotia.  The highest temperature was 56 degrees and it rained slightly for two days.  Therefore, we were unable to use our balcony until we approached Fort Lauderdale. The cool weather was one of the reasons we took this trip and the others were we had not been to these places and the East to West trans-Atlantic cruise allows you to GAIN hours of sleep as you head home.  The ship was the Grand Princess which we had been on twelve years ago, nothing like the mega ship Oasis we were on in May.

Our next cruises will be on the Allure on January 9, 2011 and the Epic for the week of February 20, 2011.

Till then, I'll be hacking my way around the golf courses in South Florida.

Hope you are all well.

Regards,

Bailey
