Have a look at this

Yes, yes I know that last night's posting was supposed to be a farewell note but...when I was cleaning out the email box I found a link to a YouTube video of the cruise itinerary:

so you can follow around Norway with us. Between that and the last minute flurry of finding contact emergency info for the ship for the plant and at $12 per minute I am talking major emergency here....I also found all kinds of shipboard info as in 'fresh fruit in your room you just have to ask for it' and the weather forecast for Norway should you like to see that we're being showered on while it's a beautiful sunny weekend in North America. And speaking of which here is the Grand Princess webcam link which you can check for progress:

Looks kind of foggy in Scotland. I'm assuming she's repositioning from the Mediterrean and awaiting our arrival in Southampton. So two links to take us until we connect with the ship:

A wiki from Keflavik for Friday:

The return 12 days later includes (weather dependent) a hopeful hovercraft trip to Isle of Wight:

If you can't plan and talk about it on your return, what's the fun in traveling eh? Hasta.
