For the record, I did not get a blog posted yesterday.
Other than for some cruise pictures, I don’t have very much today. I have posted the pictures that Bernadette took of our class of 65 dinner onboard the NWS Pearl. With Larry Bullinger (Kramer 65 Grad) there were 7 us. It was a very enjoyable evening. Our 3 and a half hour dinner slipped away quite quickly.
Of the 1,200 or so crew members on board to serve us, 80% were from the Philippines. Of those 60% were from Cebu. They were so happy to see us and of coarse especially Bernadette being able to speak their language.
