Counting down the days

We can finally use our fingers to count down the number of days until our Round the World extravaganza begins. Ten days from now, we'll be boarding an early morning flight to Auckland. This is the first leg of two flights that'll get us into New York for a series of business meetings.

However, it's the 14-day Caribbean cruise that follows that's got me most excited.  Above, you can see the awesome itinerary. We'll visit a total of 12 ports (i.e. 12 nations) by the time we're done. This is something that Garry and I have talked about doing for decades.  It's hard to believe we're about to make it a reality.
