The Love Boat heads to the scrap yard

The " Love Boat" was our first cruise together in 1983 - they were filming at that time - sad to see its demise but she started us cruising. Give her a salute. Yes her accommodations and passenger cabins were bare but it showed us how unimportant the cabin is - the entertainment is meeting fellow cruisers and seeing the world.

We watched all the Love Boat shows and all the reruns for years.

 

Starting in Septrember, there will be "Love Boat" reruns on Antenna TV which is available on cable in many parts of the USA.

 

See http://www.antennatv.tv/affiliates/ for information about a station in your area.

 

I do not know what day(s) and time it will be on yet.
