Just a week to go!

Well just a week to go to begin our new adventure.
Next week we fly to Fort Lauderdale where we spend a couple of days acclimatising to US time and will attend a pre cruise dinner at the Ritz Carlton the night before embarking on Regent Seven Seas Mariner.
Naturally we are beginning to get a little excited now most of everything is organised.
Just waiting for our final documentation and then the task of packing our cases and getting to Brisbane for the flight.
Right now as we post this we are about to experience one of many summer storms expected over the next couple of months.
May be they'll stay here and not remind the old fellow in the Caribbean and around South America.
Stay tuned folks its going to be a big one!!!!!!!
