12+ years of marraige, 9 years with my current company, and my Wife and I have never had a vacation that didn't involve children, buisiness, family get togethers or some other distraction that didn't let us be totally selfish. tomorrow morning we shall depart for new York where will will board a princess cruise boat for 6.5 days of fall leaves, deep sea fishing, cooking classes and R&R. I am excited. the cell phone is said to be dysfunctional in the north atlantic and I imagine I'll forget to turn it on when we hit port. The cooking classes are the best part. Seafood galore and lots of ports. Halifax, New brunswick, bar Harbor, Rhode Island (deep sea fishing day), Boston, and Back to New York Harbor. I've never seen a whale, and never seen the statue of Liberty. additionally, I have never caught a swordfish, or fished the north Atlantic. My wife and I both love to cook, and we both Eat almost anything that swims in Saltwater so the cooking gig ought to be awesome. Maybe we can do a lobster bake for the AC picnic after I get some training and practice.
