Getting Closer





Yesterday we made our airline reservations. It will be 3 years since our last world trip on the Pacific Princess. The voyage is 107 days and will stop in approximately 40 ports along with transiting the Panama Canal. The ship holds 680 passengers and contains 200 balcony cabins. We are staying in the same cabin we had in 2008. There are two specialty restaurants, one a steak house, the other Italian. Some of our stops include Easter Island, Tahiti, Auckland, Sydney, Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Mumbai, Dubai, Seychelles, Durban, Mozambique, Cape Town, Ghana, Dakar, Madeira, Casablanca, Gibralter, Barcelona, Monte Carlo and Portofino, with the trip ending in Rome. Figuring out what to take for 4 months without going over 2-3 suitcases will be the next hurdle. Things like bath soap, toothpaste, contac lens cleaner will have to be packed in cartons (1-2) and shipped UPS before we leave. I learned to date everything we use to see just how long it lasts so I will know exactly how much we will need for 15 weeks. The pictures are of the Pacific Princess and our room.
