Spent my 40th birthday in Disneyworld wearing a tiara and a t-shirt saying "Today is my birthday, feel free to treat me like a princess"

You all seem to have had so many more adventures than I!

Trust me Donna, a dinner cruise sounds pretty adventurous to me... arrr, a pirate's life is not for me.

Keep'em flying

Mig,

Based on your description of you and water in the above posts, remind me not to invite you sailing next time you're in HNL.

Cruising on a lake is great. Especially when it's your honeymoon and people are buying you drinks left an right. Now the ocean, a small boat (smaller than an oceanliner) and I, well let's just say that those three things don't make a good combination. I could tell you stories about the almost fishing my family did in Manzanillo a few years ago . . . .

I should add one more from the other day. I saw the most amazing rainbow silhouetted by a desert mountain with the sun shining all around. The rainbow was lower than the mountain so it appeared to be almost a part of it, the rain was just a spray really and the cacti were visible behind the rainbow. I've never seen anything like it and so wish I'd have had my camera but I was on my way to work.

Donna because I suffer terrible seasickness I eat nothing but crackers when out on the water. However once, I did throw caution to the wind and actually had dinner on a boat (actually it was an ocean liner). But because the Queen Mary is permanently moored (set in concrete) I'm guessing that doesn't count as dining at sea.

Keep'em flying

Mig,
Too bad you don't enjoy the ocean. Some of my most exciting trips have been crossing a body of water in a storm. For you I would suggest you never cross Lake Michigan from Wisconsin to Michigan. Or take the trip from England to Ireland cross the Irish Sea.
On those routes I have been out on the deck enjoying the elements while my fellow travelers were green around the gills. I must have some sailor blood in my veins.

Coyne if you call crossing a body of water in a storm exciting, then you not only have some sailor blood, but a sailor's stomach too. BTW, I'm not alone in my queasiness, Julius Caesar, Charles Darwin and Admiral Nelson (Trafalgar), all made trips to the rail. (not bad company)

Keep'em flying
