THANK YOU ALL!

I had written a very long response to you but it 'went away' somewhere in cyperspace.

Anyway, you all have been a wonderful life line for me. Both he and I have found out more about the Norway's 'goings on' from you than he does from NCL.

With luck, my 26 days on board (starting the 11th) will not have to change. The prior transfer he was supposed to have before dry-dock, with devine help, will not come through when he arrives in Miami. NCL changed 'his' plans, 2 days before arrival at the 'fix-it' shop.

I am soooooooo looking forward to this time on the ship and all of you have helped me get the info that he could not give me. I don't know how to thank you.

(oh no, I'm going to cry - gotta go) NCL will not even tell me what time today the ship will 'arrive' at the dock.

So, what's another MISERABLE HOUR OR 6.

Pollysmom
PS: Maybe I could let all of you Norway fans know what the 'changes' were/are and if you really can tell the difference. Let me know!
