cruise differential

At sea. ocean calm, weather cloudy. Territory? where U-Boats harrassed merchant ships during WWII. Ship with high end amenities but like any cruise except for its destinations. Of those on board, 750 are making the whole world cruise, like me. Meet QM2 in harbor at Fort Lauderdale tomorrow.

underway

Learning my way around the Queen Victoria, finding spa and food hotspots, getting used to the motion. People mostly in pairs but interesting folks. No children. No land, either. We're somewhere off the coast of SC I suspect - still not warm enough! Left NYC in snowstorm. First lecture by Rick Senat, former EVP of Warner Bros - maybe get some tips about getting Dear Coach into a movie - THAT would pay for the trip.
