Great video JJ
Sure liked to blow it's horn.
Was it difficult following in the car?

Loved the picture with your dog and Gem in the background. Did he/she accompany you all the way?

Only two weeks and I will be aboard

Have now checked out the internal photos, See what you mean Ally about needing sunglasses indoors. It's a little loud in places. Some very strange looking furniture too.

It was easy following the Gem but a nightmare to find parking space near the different locations. Sellie is alone at home for a couple of hours every Monday to Thursday so I refuse to leave her alone on weekends.

Norman, I will be on the Atlantic crossing as well, so probably we will see us there.

The thumbnail of one of the pictures of the GEM under construction caught my eye. It was a stern view with about half of the skin not yet applied. Until I enlarged it, my thought was, "That's a big bus!"
