Packing, packing a packing we will go!

It is 9 days until we leave on the cruise and two days before our boxes will be picked up for pre-shipment to the boat. They hold all our toiletry items needed for 4 months at sea. Much more of a challenge then I thought it would be.  We didn't want to be looking for shampoo in Vietnam or Thailand so we figured we should send ahead!  The large box carries my formal wear and shoes.  Still one box more to pack with Keith's formal wear and shoes and then 4 suitcases too pack that we will bring with us!  We are getting so excited!

Boxes packed, sealed and labeled for shipment

Welcome to our blog!

This trip is the brain child of Keith.  He has been looking and researching world cruises for 5 years.  He was very particular about what part of the world he wanted to go to and finally in the Summer of 2011 he found this cruise on Holland America.  It was the perfect compliment to what countries we have already ventured to.  We have already visited 28 countries and with the 26 that we will see on this cruise (absolutely no duplicates) we will have 54 countries under our belts.  Pretty nice!

                                           This is our itinerary!  115 days of pure adventure!
