It is hard to believe we have had such a long, long winter, but we have. Tomorrow, April 3, we begin our journey from the Detroit airport to the San Diego airport to the cruise terminal to take off on our trip through the Panama Canal. We are really looking forward to warmer weather, and are pretty sure we are going to find it. I am also hoping for smooth sailing. Time will tell about that. We have talked about what we can do to keep from gaining too much weight. One thing we usually do is take the steps. That burns some calories. We try not to do the buffet. This time we are thinking we will share a sandwich at lunch time and leave off the french fries, or maybe ask for a vegetarian meal. We will be making lots of stops along the way so I hope to share a bunch of pictures with you. Not quite ready yet.
