Jan 18th: Sailing the South Pacific

Our days at sea are packed with activities! I'm not sure how we fit everything in during the days when we're in Port! It was smooth sailing from Hawaii, and fun times were spent with friends. Tonight, we had dinner with Cynthia and David, who live in Edmonds! Is this a small world or what?! They are both retired Principals & Administrators, respectfully, from the Everett School system. After dinner, we went with Catherine, Tom, Jason & Fernando to see performer Lindsay Hamilton from London's West End. Her voice and dynamic stage presence are fantastic!

We continue to meet wonderful people! So far, this has truly been a highlight for Julie & me. Talk about a small world, on our 1st leg of this trip, we met folks from Baton Rouge, Louisiana, who know of the Saurage family, who are related to Julie's maternal grandmother! They left the tour in LA, but Julie just got an email from them. They sent her the contact information on the family so that they can get in touch with one another! Such kind and thoughtful people!!
