More meanderings from a proud father buna

My biggest dream about taking a cruise has now become even stronger, after reading your thread. Talking about a cruise that will take more than 10 days. It is my economy that makes me have to wait some years until I can afford it

One of these cruises is to take a trip across the Atlantic and back.

Did you manage to get both video filed Steve?

Cruising is by far the most relaxing way to travel IMHO

Yep. Had the volume cranked up for something else and the horns nearly shattered my eardrums.

According to Mike Pinder, Thinking is the best way to travel.

I'm currently writing about my time at sea for my kids, and yes, being on the ocean for days at a time is quite relaxing.

Had a discussion with my little sister about my goal

-Do it have to be a room with balcony?
Insider is much cheaper

-No! It have to be a room with balcony, so I can sit and have a dring and a smoke and enjoy the beautiful ocean.

And you have to understand that I have to pay about the double for a room, as I travel alone.

@Steve - I've never had Yahoo Toolbar install itself via Firefox or any other program - and it does come with just about everything out there!!! Nor would I have it. But if it did it is easily got rid of.

Back OT - You're right about that horn, bloomin' loud. Bet the neighbours are glad that Eurodam doesn't arrive daily.

I believe they use the horn to scare icebergs away when they're in Alakan and Canadian waters
