Day 19: Good Morning Santa Barbara

It’s 7:45 AM - I slept in this morning - Look at the last to photos and you will see why. We are happy to report my CPAP machine finally made it to our room … From losing it on Day One at the Atlanta, GA airport. Then on Day Two Delta calling me to say they found it and emailed instructions to have it shipped, From there it took some time to have Delta get it to UPS - Then UPS sent it to our friends in Carlsbad - We were hoping to spend time with them in LA, their plans changed. So, they shipped it to Viking at the Port of LA, who got it to our room last night. Donna and I are both happy to have our CPAP machines back. I think that is why we slept in this morning.

One of today’s photos is John a young man here on holiday with his mom, John & I pretty much grab the glass table on deck 8 and call it our home office. Linda likes to come up in the morning and grab a front row seat, Don is on the right taking a photo - We are creatures of habit.

They expect a high of around 65 degrees in Santa Barbara’s …. Will need a light wind-breaker on shore today. Back home is Connecticut looks like a warm front is coming in at 45 degrees.

We have dropped anchor off the shoreline and will be tendered on to shore for our excursion, Tonight is the huge welcome party in the Star Theater to welcome the new passengers onto the ship.

We will have four sea days to get to Hawaii - I plan on getting caught up with some blog posts & photos I have missed - Let me tell you — “Cruising is hard work.”

Well breakfast is served, Time to post this entry, Please enjoy today’s wake up photos, from the the shore of Santa Barbara, California,
