We're 3 days from sailing, and final preparations are being made. One of the biggest challenges this trip was that our primary credit card was compromised by some miscrit at the start of the week, and this required issuance of new cards and a delay in making certain final trip related purchases. My replacement card just arrived today.
In addition and on a more happy note, this trip we have a family of gnomes stowing away in our luggage. They have their own blog page which will be updated throughout the trip. It also gives a little history about how they came to be.

Here's the family all prepared for the trip with their tiny sized flotation devices.
