Transatlantic Crossing

Now 3885 nautical miles from Southampton and only 665 from NYC. Closing days of trip being spent comfortably aboard QM 2 in spite of at least one night of rough seas. Enjoying “old” friends from the Queen Victoria - the captain had a party for the 240 of us continuing on to NY from England (there were 750 on the QV portion of the world cruise). Not spending as much time in the gym/spa here but enjoying the opportunity to play golf on a simulator. Tomorrow I’ll be playing the Maui Kapalua Village and Bay courses! Also spending time going over the close-to-final copy of Dear Coach. Then, of course, it will be time to pack for one more time. Looking forward to seeing friends at home.

Hi Lois! You must be feeling eager to get home yet sad for this wonderful journey to end!! Some good news is it will be 83+ degrees through the weekend in NY and Lancaster...so though you left in snow, your arrival brings us a long awaited heat wave! Thanks again for taking all of us along with you through your blog and wonderful photos! Welcome back my friend!
