Hey Leslie,
Do we get discounts for new recruits? I can't wait til next March. Yup, Cindy, the passports are no joke cost wise either. They get ya coming and going. Cripes, you have to have a passport to re-enter from Bahamas now. Oh yeah, I also had to track down my birth certificate to get the blasted passport because my last passport was when we moved to Spain when I was 7. Talk about some scary polyester early 80's/late 70's pic. YIKES! Now, how to park all these cars in my neighborhood and fit everyone in my parent's SUV with luggage to get us to the ship....
Hugs,
Barb
