WestPac cruise...Heh. I have to giggle over that one.

When you were in Hawaii, did you get the chance to make your way up to Kane'ohe or Schofield? They definitely got the prettier half of the island, but even Hickam is another world compared to Pearl Harbor. What is it with the Navy & overhead steam pipes, anyway?

We have met someone famous. Remember?

Gave some of your sister's black forest cheesecake to Peter Mayhew (Chewbaca) and his wife (Mrs. Chewy) @ Con-vergence it's first year. And we rode in the elevator with them - twice. "We've got to stop meeting like this. People will talk." lol
