Finally Here

Our plane left at 7:30 in the morning.  We could have allowed ourselves a little more time as we left the house at 5:30 and made it to the plane as they announced "final call."  The security line took us about 35 minutes and I was the one chosen to be scanned.  It was a beautiful flight and after a lovely lunch at the "Bimini Bistro."  we finally boarded the ship. We found friends that we met on the 2008 trip and caught up over coffee.  By the time we unpacked it was very late and had just a snack for dinner without changing our clothes.  I had been up since 3 AM and was exhausted.

The following morning I went to the gym to work out.  They had all new equipment complete with tv's on each treadmill.  I was able to get the FOX news station and was very happy.  Afterwards, we had breakfast then had a relaxing day at the pool.  Met a lovely lady named Alecia who is a Holocaust survivor.  She was in the Warsaw Ghetto for two year and was 8 at the time.  She told us some amazing stories.  She and her husband will celebrate their 59th wedding anniversary tomorrow.
