Did you have an oppurtunity to use your "Sweet Adeline" skills to sing along with Garrison and guests while cruising the fijords on Holland America? We kept thinking about you while listening to the re-broadcasts back at home in the US of A and trying to visualize your experience. Looking forward to hearing of your "tales of travels". PS Have you memorized the words of the "Sons of Knute"?
