We're Back!

Yep, back to Seattle yesterday and here sits Gene as we wait for Aime to pick us up. It was a fantastic time for all of us although Gene had some rough times with his equalibrium. The food was fabulous and plentiful, the service absolutely superb at every level! I am in awe of the friendliness we found in every single crew member we encountered. I could have cruised forever. Our bed was made, clean towels each day, those cute towel animals with candy on our bed, room service. Ho hum, life will be very dull again in comparison, LOL! The day of departure was a gorgeous day and we sat on the pool deck as we headed out. I wish I could say the weather held for the rest of our trip but it didn't and we had clouds, rain and wind. It didn't dampen our spirits though nor keep us from heading off the ship at each port. Skagway was miserably cold and windy but we still managed to walk into town and hit the quilt shop, yarn shop and a few other stores as well. As the days go by I will try to share a little more of our trip and pictures too. Today we have Jaiden and she's spending the night with us. She helped me hull the strawberries for dessert using a straw and did a great job. Love that little trick! It is warm and sunny here and finally feels like summer will arrive :-) One more day off and then back to work for me. I admit I was thrilled to indulge in my own coffee this morning and real coke this afternoon, LOL! The ships coffee left a lot to be desired and they serve Pepsi, not Coke. Very minor disappointment when everything else was beyond my wildest dreams. Definitely hard to return to the real world, hahaha!
