February Cruise Pictures

I finally completed my picture site from our February Cruise. Check it out and let me know what you think.
I used iWeb to create it and, unfortunately, iWeb and Firefox 3 do not get along well. So you need to use Internet Explorer, Firefox 2, or Safari to view it.
Enjoy!

Added 3/22/09: Andy's pictures and Katie's Pictures.

Our Next Cruise

Thanks to a timely one time payment from DTE and a tax refund we have our next cruise lined up! This time we're headed to a part of the world neither of have been to before - Northern Europe! It's Baltic Sea cruise on the Emerald Princess, departing Copenhagen with stops at Stockholm, Helsinki, St Petersburg, Estonia, Poland and Oslo.
It is actually quite surprising to me that we can afford another cruise this soon after our February anniversary celebration cruise with the kids. This one is actually a true Anniversary cruise since the ship sails on our actual 35th wedding anniversary!
After this one, it will take quite a while to replenish our vacation fund, but the deal was waaaay too good to pass up and it is a cruise we've both wanted to take at some point and by doing it now we are saving several thousand dollars.
Now to watch the airfares and hope to catch a good sale to Europe in the coming weeks. Northwest has one going on now, but you have to fly by May 31st. So I'll keep checking....
That's the update for now. More to come as well as a February cruise picture page once I get a few pictures from Mary.

Cruise Pictures - NOT!

I assembled a nice set of cruise pictures and use iWeb to publish to my Travel Mobile!Me Apple web site, only to find that the site does not work with Firefox 3!
It's also a bit incomplete as I neglected to take pictures at some stops, but once Mary gets her pictures uploaded I may borrow a few of them.
Anyhow, a site is coming, but you won't be able to view it using Firefox 3.
