And the cruise begins!

We bid adieu to Montreal as we boarded out ship, the Maasdam! The weather was perfect for our departure from the city. While Halley and Dan got their stuff (and I mean stuff…. Magazines, DVD’s, CD’s, cross stitch supplies and project, meds, mini-DVD player, the list goes on… I swear, that girl brings more stuff than anyone I have ever known… been like that since she was a kid) all put away in their room, Jerry and I went exploring on the ship. It’s smaller than some of the other ones we have been on, but not by much. Eventually, we too settled into our room and had a chance, before dinner, to sit on the deck and enjoy the evening breeze as we sailed away.
Dinner was superb… H and D were 30 minutes late… grrrrr… you can’t tell that kidlet anything… she said she knew where we were having dinner & so we said we would hook up at 5:30. We try so hard to give more freedom, but, always seem to have to become the nagging parents.
The evening closed with a wonderful show by Michael W Smith, Jeremy Camp, Audrey Aussad, L’Angelus, author Frank Peretti and a great comedian, John Branyan; we were laughing like crazy…. Each gave just a taste of what they will be singing and doing the rest of the week…. As Annie, from the broadway show says: “I think I’m gonna like it here!”
Tomorrow we wake up in Quebec City….
