Your trip sounds wonderful, especially that "Freestyle Crusing" part. The last time I toot a cruise it cost me a small fortune. Going free is good!

And I don't understand the fuss about your weight; you look great. I know Jim is a stone or two over, but he's not so bad either. Do they weigh you before you get on board, or when you disembark?

Wish we were going with you!
