11 That's All for Now, Folks!

So ends our Easter cruise adventure for another year. I keep pinching myself to see if it really is just a dream. The annual getaways with NCL have become so much a part of our lives for such a long time that I can hardly express in words what they mean to me. The chance to be a minister in such exotic settings has been an unbelievable personal blessing to me and a wonderful and relaxing getaway for us both. We can only hope the tradition continues for a long time to come. Stay tuned, as we look forward to inviting you back once again to share our next adventure. Till then, to each of you, we wish "fair winds and following seas." Currently, we are planning to visit Israel and Egypt in the Fall. The Norwegian Jade wil move back to the Port of Rome in October, and offer itineraries that include two new Mediterranean ports (Alanya, Turkey, and the island of Cyprus) in addition to two days in Israel, followed by two days in Egypt. This trip will fulfill my lifelong desire to visit the Bible lands of the Sea of Galilee, the Jordan River and the Old City of Jerusalem. Come follow along with us on yet another travel adventure.
