Well, welcome back to you too, TC!! I've never seen Santa Fe. I kinda lump all those Western sounding cities together, Tucson, Phoenix, Santa Fe, not to be insulting to anyone. I'm just very poor at Geography.

You may have climbed 8000 feet, but I battled evil with Spiderman, and soared through space with the Jetsons and went back to the future with that weird professor. I rode over rapids in Jurassic Park and took a jungle safari through the wilds of Africa chasing poachers. I'm exhausted.

I also relived my childhood through Disney cartoons. I wonder if everyone else was as affected by Peter Pan and Snow White and Fantasia as I was? One of the dining rooms on the ship is called the Magic Palette, and the walls go from black and white to colors as the meal progresses. They show a wonderful collage of Disney clips, and by the end I was weeping in my little palette-shaped plate.

We did have a laptop with us, and CW has an 800 line but he hogged it when we finally got to a phone in Orlando. I knew also that if I got on, I would stay on and jeopardize my relationship with my family. I did wear my SI t-shirt around the ship hoping someone would come up and say something. But probably no true addicts are crazy enough to place themselves in the middle of the ocean for a week without Internet access.

EVeryone hates Californians anyway, and Texans they just think of as beerswilling, ignorant good ol bubbas who got rich only becuase they struck oil while digging a new outhouse.
