Thank you Rich, Jacqui, Vanessa, Ann, Debbie, and Dixie. Three great days to celebrate and may we get more research on Thalassemia. I like the quote. A great day in WW2 history. I visited Da Nang in 2012 on the Zaandam. My pictures would be much like Quartzsite Cruisers from the Citatel. I’ll pass on the meal. My alternative is Fruit Salad with Yogurt and Honey, Orange and Radiccio Salad and Beechers Macaroni and Cheese which would have been my choices April 22, 2014 if I had not dined in Canaletto. Summer heat will be back today. Aliaschief’s video brings back memories of several great safaries, mostly with Rovos Rail but also a simple one while I was in Cape Town in 2014 between disembarking Crystal Serenity and boarding MS Amsterdam.

Kushiro was the first Japanese (and actual first after Dutch Harbor was cancelled) on Amsterdam's 2017 Grand Asia. It is on Hokkaido, a small island in Northern Japan. When I was there is was kind of a foggy day. The port is at the mouth of a small river with an interesting bridge: I did find one tall building, possibly the library, with a nice overview of the city: As usual there was a farewell greeting as we set sail: Roy

Today's sunrise is from my 2017 Crystal Symphony Panama Canal cruise from San Diego to New York. On May 7 we visited San Juan del Sur. Roy

Thank you Rich, Jacqui, Vanessa, Debbie, Ann, and Dixie. May we find better treatments for Cystinosis. I’ll pass on the other 2 days. I love the Lennon quote. I visited Kushiro on the 2017 Amsterdam Grand Asia cruise, This is a great day in electronics history. I’ll pass on the meal. I have never been on a BHB between May 6 and May 13. Today’s alternative menu selection is Melon Trio and Chicken Cordon Bleu which would have been my choices on MS Amsterdam April 16, 2014 if I had not dined in the Pinnacle Grill. Should be a quiet day in Central Maryland. Roy

Just one photo from my 2015 cruise visiting Bar Harbor. This is my ship, Blount Small Ship Adventures' Grande Caribe: The strange looking bridge is so that it can be lowered to the deck below to pass under some very low bridges on New York's Erie Canal. Roy

I'm not expecting them this year. We really got them in 2021, Roy

Thanks Dave, Leanne, and fellow addicts. Roy
