That\u2019s it, that\u2019s all that\u2019s left. Looking at it like that, it doesn\u2019t seem much does it? and chronologically, by strict measure of the calendar, it\u2019s really not. But when you take into account that 18 of those days are sea days, and all that has to be done, plus the fact that \u2013 due to a family emergency \u2013 we are now down one major team member. That list might start to look a little longer. We have a lot to fit into a short period of time, but I\u2019ve no doubt that we can do it.<\/p>\n

The I-95 was alive with rattling wheels this morning as the new members of the crew came on board, and the over-sized crew elevators were jammed with huge crates indicating the arrival of the new shows that have come on board with our new production cast. As much as I loved our previous cast, I\u2019ve been looking forward to the arrival of the new one simply because I know the F1, whom I ran into in the hallway this morning. How well I remember that bewildered \u2018how on earth do I find my way around\u2019 look from when I first came to the flagship. The last ship this cast was on was the baby of the fleet, the flagship isn\u2019t a lot<\/em> bigger, but she\u2019s a totally different layout\u2026bound to be a bit bewildering at first.<\/p>\n

So we\u2019ll be breaking them in for the next few weeks.<\/p>\n
