Thanks, Terry. I will arrive on March 12 and leave late on the 23rd. I'll be staying at the Hilton Americas. Not sure if those first few days (13th/14th) are too late for the rodeo.
Those cruises sound fabulous and I am so glad for you that you enjoy your retirement, Dave. You have earned it so you deserve it.I'm back from a two-week Mediterranean cruise. Barcelona, Rome, Athens, archeological ruins in Turkey, pyramids and the Sphinx in Egypt and the structures of almost 6,000 years ago in Malta. Egypt, Turkey and Malta were new adventures for me, so I had an awesome time.
I checked in on TUG only once while I was gone because the Internet connection on the ship was lousy.
Next up is a 10-day bridge tournament in Houston, followed by a two-week cruise in the Caribbean - both later this month.
As I stated earlier, this first year of retirement is a year of travel, making up for not taking as many great vacations as I might have liked during my working years.
However, lest one thinks I'm made of money, all of my hotel stays and most of my plane tickets are paid for with FF miles and hotel points (mostly Marriott) accumulated but never used over the past 28 years since those programs began.
... Then back for three days before another two-week cruise. ...
... I'll finish off my cruising frenzy with a three-week cruise to Antarctica next January...
I'll finish off my cruising frenzy with a three-week cruise to Antarctica next January. Meanwhile, I'll find more time for TUG than I have in the past four months.
