Okay, what I've been up to.....

Dear Marilyn,

Yes, I am glad to know where you were, and also glad that you guys got to go on what sounds like a very interesting vacation, I can't wait to see pictures.

I would gain at least 10 pounds on a cruise. With food available 24 hours/day, and good food at that, they would be rolling me off the boat. How nice that you didn't have to cook for a week, got to relax and see new places. Sorry it rained though!

I got seasick when I went to see my cousin off on a boat. As soon as I stepped onto the dock, my equilibrium went south. Then I took a windjammer cruise and was determined not to be sick. This was before the patch came out. I was sick the first day, but by the second day, I found my "sea legs," and was fine. I had the same reaction though when we landed. I don't remember how long it lasted, but it is a weird thing if you don't expect it.
