please, do us a favor and refrain from calling other people 'land lubbers' until you feel like actually working on a ship and not doing 'token chores' from time to time. Remember, you are a tourist on this trip.

^ It seems one rather bitter commentator is apparently unaware of just how much like hard work writing a blog really is, even while on a ship.

Mr. Calamai - I must admit I felt a tad guilty today after reading your articles - Earlier, I was trying to decide if I needed to put on my fuzzy warm slippers to go out and get my newspaper approx. 10 feet (sorry,3.048 meters) - the temperature had fallen below 60 degrees here in sunny Connecticut....

Your warmer(temperature and personality) cousin, Bob.....

PS, I want to send you a picture - what email should I use?
