So glad you have had so many fun experiences while you've been there, and am especially glad for you that you and Wild Eyes will be heading back to sea in just a few hours. I know that is where you want to be! <br /><br />Will be looking forward to lots of pix now that you have some additional cameras. Every photo is special and makes us all feel very close to what's happening on board! As always, safe sailing........<br /><br />GO GIRL<br />Blessings,<br />Janell in Oklahoma, USAJanell in Oklahoma,USAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11954628086457829425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1578399656308603032.post-28453974147830559852010-05-19T23:31:05.285-07:002010-05-19T23:31:05.285-07:0005-20-10 @ 02:31
