All Our Bags Are Packed 

We're Ready To Go

Well all 8 bags are packed.  A few last minute items to be put in the carryons and we are ready!

It was a huge undertaking I must say.  Bill I think has taken more than me. When asked "how do you pack for 109 days" his answer was you empty your closet.  And I think that is about what we did  When we took our first Crystal Cruise almost 10 years ago Bill was not thrilled with all the Black Tie Formals and Semi Formals.  After working on Wall Street all those years he wore a suit all the time and we went to quite a few black tie affairs.  When we moved to AZ our life became more casual and Bill really enjoyed his jeans and cowboy boots and hats.  We have both come to realize that we don't mind dressing up for dinners on the ship and that we kinda miss it. And it does make it more special.

Well this is it we leave on Tuesday January 13 for our overnight in Miami at the Four Seasons Hotel.  We board our home away from home the Crystal Serenity on Wednesday Jan. 14 for the World Cruise Gala and set sail at 8pm on Thursday Jan. 15.  I will miss all of you and wish you all a great winter.  Bidding you all adieu!
