Ten minutes to write. Less time to read.

There are 1500 crew members, all trying to please the guests on board the Regal Princess.  I acknowledge some of them here.

Thanks to the crew member who found my sweater and took it to Lost and Found.  It is now back in my possession.

Thanks to the crew member in the laundry who got indelible ink out of Earl’s favorite shirt. Would that person be interested in coming home with us?

Thanks to Adrian, the TV technician, who managed to hook a headset to the flat panel TV in our stateroom so Earl could listen to his beloved Fox News and I wasn’t subjected to it. Adrian doesn’t know what he did to enhance the cruise for both Earl and me.

Thanks to bartendress Wendy, who told me how to order a 007, which is like a double Absolut without the double price.

Thanks to everyone in the International Café.  They all know how to make a latte that rivals the one I get at Martin’s on Tuesdays at home. And at half the price.  Would they want to emigrate too?

I’m sure there will be more kudos to offer, since the staff on the Regal Princess, and all the other cruise ship we’ve been on, is committed to making every passenger wish a command.
