Two roads diverged in a wood, and I-
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

Re-live the Magic of Embarkation

The SAS Videographer put together this clip of Embarkation from the Bahamas last week.

I thought he did a great job of really capturing the moment and emotions of when we left. Truly, it did get quiet and surreal on the ship, and after the  noise of the horn and the screams of the crowd, a noticeable hush hit did us as we realized the gravity of the situation.

Awesomely, I am in the video!! There is a close-up of me waving the Maryland Flag off the front of the ship as we pulled away. The pic is about 55 seconds from the END of the video. I know you'll enjoy it.

Here it is:

Congratulations on being invited to be part of the Intercultural committee of the Ambassador’s club. They knew what they were doing when they asked you -- you have a knack for making people feel comfortable. I know you'll do a great job.

I love reading your blog -- I laughed when I read about 'THE NOISE', because, of course, I knew it wouldn't bother Chazz.

The embarkation slide show is cool, and you haven't looked silly at all, yet.

Thanks so much for writing this. I know it's a lot of work, but I certainly appreciate it. Have fun in Spain!!!! Lori Anders
