Morning Maw and ramblers all. It's a beautiful day here and it's going to be very warm! I'm not complaining.Oh wow...I am TV'd out! Two nights of having to record and juggle the schedules around finales! My favourite Five-O left me hanging!!I spent most of yesterday deep cleaning around the house. The older I get the more difficult this job becomes! Wish I could have a weekly housekeeper come in to do these jobs but I'd rather plan another cruise with the $$$$ it would cost me. We do have someone clean the outside windows though.Maw...for Alaska...We were there in late May last year and it was wonderful weather. The only rain we experienced was in Ketchikan. I hope you are as fortunate. The only way to pack for Alaska is to think layers...that way if it's chilly you can add a layer and if it gets warm later on you can start peeling off layers. Pack a couple of long sleeved tees or blouses and a couple of long sleeved ones. Take one warm sweater or light weight fleecy jacket/hoodie/sweathshirt and some kind of windbreaker that is also water resistant. A small umbrella may also come in handy. I call my umbrella my insurance....if I have it it doesn't rain...if I don't it pours. Always remember there is a gift shop available (on board and off) where you can pick up an extra something if you need or want it. Wish we were going on at least one leg of this cruise but having just done it last year and with our European adventure coming up later this summer it was just not to be. I know you are all going to have a wonderful time!Donna...your remarks about the Kindle Fire made me smile! I would never have thought that I would be so attached to all things technical...but I find I am! In one room is my Mac...in another my I-Pad and in yet another (and often my pocket) is my I-Phone. What ever did I do without these devices? Yes I have my Kindle too...and I can read it in every room in the house even when it is sitting on my night table!Well...I'm off to a lazy day at the scrapbook table and probably a little time outdoors while the weather is soooo perfect.Have a wonderful day everyone. Stay safe and be happy in it!
