The excitement is building! We are down to the final week before we leave and their are clothes laid out on the bed and lists, lists,lists! One of the items is to check out the blog post and see if I remember how to do it :). Since I may not be able to post while on board ship, I’m hoping to write them and then post when we find WiFi. If all goes well, I’ll post this from the airport as our trip begins.

And here we are in Vancouver. Thank you thank you Mike Bednard for passes to the Maple Leaf Lounge. David has his Guinness and I my glass of  Sauvignon  Blanc. Thank you thank you to our very special Alaska taxi service, Lazzaro Express for getting us to the airport so very very early this morning.
