Serenade of the Seas

Thank you for all your kinds thoughts and words regarding the loss of Zoe. I do miss her.

It certainly put me a bit out of sorts this week - I didn't really feel I got the things done that I wanted to do. I had a couple of packages I wanted to send off - and that didn't get done and will have to wait now until I return home.

We are leaving for our cruise tomorrow morning!! How exciting. Jim's brother and his wife (Barb and Bill) were out a couple of weeks ago and saw a cruise ship leaving port and took these pictures.



If you click on the picture you can see the ship - off to the right is Stanley Park and the white sails behind the trees is actually the Cruise Ship terminal -- Canada Place.

Here is a close up of the ship - it is the one we are going to be on tomorrow. Serenade of the Seas. They were taking pictures of the actual ship that we are going to be on tomorrow.



And tonight around 7 PM the cruise ship Radiance of the Seas went sailing by our house. Our ship sails out tomorrow about 5 PM - so there is a possibility that we will get to see our house - from a distance as we leave tomorrow night.

I don't think we will be on the internet much while we are out to sea. So I might not be back to the blogs until we get back next week. We will be back next Saturday - and my birthday is next Friday - so this is my very special 50th birthday!

I have 4 quilt shops in Alaska to go see -- two in Skagway and two in Juneau. I am hoping to get an Alaskan pattern or two - and maybe a bit of fabric. I don't think I will go overboard buying fabric - but I should support the local economy!! Andrew is coming to spend the week at the house and Jenny is going to spend the week at the Dog sitters - with her friend Lilly the Golden Retriever. It should be a great week!!

  13. Have yourself a wonderful time. Oh, I cannot wait to read about your trip. Don't forget to take pictures of the quilt stores (if they allow). The next best thing to being there is having a friend tell you all about it! Have fun! Hug!
