- They saved the best event for the end – the Black and Gold Ball! A good time for all . . . and I got to wear my Michael Kors golden sequine cocktail dress!
- We return home tomorrow. It’s hard to believe. Bill’s downright “giddy”, knowing he gets to sleep in his own bed tomorrow night.
- To the folks at home: we’ll see you very soon!! To the folks who’ve read my blog and been supportive, a big THANKS!! It meant a lot to me (truly). To the folks who didn’t care much for what I had to say, I’m sorry but I can’t please everyone (or drive myself crazy trying). I have taken all sorts of things to heart (e.g., what people say here, on the ship, in e-mails), and I’ve learned along the way.
- I wish for everyone the great experience of seeing the world . . .
- Over and out. (Until home, anyway.)
So happy for you that you got to enjoy the experience of a lifetime! You deserved it!
ReplyDeleteSondra- The gold dress is my all time favorite. You looked more rested, healthier, happier and absolutely radiant than at any other time on this trip. (Personal opinion). As they say "All's well that ends well"! Good bye. Liz F.
ReplyDeleteWelcome home! I hope in the end you feel the cruise was worth taking, even through the travails--and at least the diversions were a success. We readers certainly appreciated the time and effort it took to blog!

I just hoped Bill paid attention as to the manufacture of towel "animals" so you can relive at least some of your memories! Glad you are coming home as I'll bet your pups think you have been gone forever! Are you going to make a book of your trip and blog? At the least some of your photos would look quite nice framed in a larger size! Grandma is ready for a visit!
ReplyDeleteThis blog does not handle punctuation well...
DeleteThanks so much for sharing your trip. It was a long time to be away from home, so I can totally understand why you are anxious to be home (I just wish you were away for another 365 days, haha). Enjoyed your blog & wish you all the best. Thanks! And I still think your little boy with the rooster should have been a winner. You should definitely enlarge that for your own & label it 'regular people's choice'. Thanks so much & all the best!
ReplyDeleteWelcome back home ... and thanks for taking us along. Despite the "warts," I hope you overall have positive feelings for your adventure. As time goes by, the warts will fade away and you'll remember the moments you enjoyed the most; and those will stay with you.
ReplyDeleteSondra, the gold dress is awesome, and so is this blog. I will miss reading it every day, hope to see pictures of your puppy reunion.
ReplyDeleteMaybe start another blog to cover your new home search and your life in general.
Thanks again.

Sondra & Bill.... WELCOME HOME!!! We had a great cruise with you both, even if only by your blog and photos. Great Job, sometimes we need to realize how fortunate we are to be able to cruise at all. Good Luck in putting your practise back together, I wish you all the success in the World!! kiss the pups!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Sondra for posting all those wonderful photos. I have really enjoyed reading all your posts from around the world. Will have to find some other way to sate my travel bug as we wait until next year for our next cruise. All the best. L.H.
