In case you want to know

I will be off line for a week as I take Mommy and Mama on their first cruise. We are going on a big, big ship. It looks like a lot of fun. There are kid activities and a kids pool and all kinds of things to explore. We leave on Sunday the 13th of July and return on the 20th. We sail out of New York City, so we will be sailing right by the Statue of Liberty! We will be making stops in Saint John, New Brunswick; Halifax, Nova Scotia; Bar Harbor, Maine; Provincetown, Massachusetts; and Newport Rhode Island. Canada will be a new country for my passport. It will actually be my 13th country. I'm excited about everything, but mostly I'm excited about being able to spend some relaxing time with Mommy and Mama. No dishes, laundry, or other such responsibilities to distract them from play time! I'll write again when we return.
