As a desktop, that glorious ocean and wonderful wake will ease my waiting for our next cruise - nothing I enjoy more than standing at the stern as the ship plows along - sometmes I think I have salt water in my veins!

HAPPY HOLIDAYS.................

I wish everybody a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from the cold Finland, in Helsinki we have about 30 to 40 cm's of snow and minus 10 to minus 20 degrees celcius, so it's pretty chilly!

Merry Christmas and happy New Year to all.

The picture is great. I like being nowhere near land. Can't do anything about anything.

In north Florida, it's supposed to get cold. Highs around 50. We will have to pick our crop of two oranges or else they will be frozen orange juice.

Thank You, Joe, and a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to you and yours. Also to all others who read these memo's. May we have peace on earth for us all. And lots of cruises to look forward to. I also must have the sea in my blood, I can watch the ocean, lake, river, etc. for hours on end. I just live in the wrong place. No shore near by. I love the picture. Thanks again........

Thanks Joe, makes great wallpaper.
Malcolm, by the time your Santa's finished jumping up and down on those brochures you asked for, you'll have some great squashed prices.

Thank you Joe. And thank
you all for putting up with me this year. I'm surprised I have'nt been
"Crowned" yet for all the

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all. I must say that 2001 has been a year of change for all of us and I am excited at the prospects for 2002.

Enjoying a nice sunny day in Vanocuver - temperatures around 6 degrees C (sory guys I can't do degrees F) and no snow - but the crocuses (or some other bulb plant) are coming up :-)
