I am soooooo out of here!

My mother wanted a Carribean cruise for her 80th birthday... and don't you think 80-year-olds should get what they want?

Normally a cruise wouldn't be our usual style of vacationing, but right now it sounds just lovely.

So tomorrow morning we're off on an 8 am flight to San Juan, Puerto Rico, where we board the Celebrity Constellation, bound for seven days of fun and sun with nine family members and 2,000 of our closest friends (and no connectivity)! Then we'll spend a few days in San Juan, playing tourist.

I'll be the guy in the chaise lounge with the funny drink with the umbrella in it...

Happy Holidays to all of you - see you in a couple of weeks!
