This is so much fun - Worst thing though is that the best sound system I have with me is my laptop. Luckily I can watch "free movies" on netflix.

Any suggestions for in bed (by yourself) entertainment?
JP this is TD hope you are feeling better My back was still sore when we left on our cruise, but continues to improve. We must agree to never lift a 7000 again

Thanks Tom. I'm doing much better.

My wife and I were supposed to be on a cruise - sailing south from LA - the week I had the surgery. Glad I bought trip insurance.

Where did you cruise?

We sailed from Ft Lauderdale to San Jaun and spent the evening at Senior Frogs (big mistake) then to St Thomas, Antigua, Tortola and back to Nassua. It was an eight day cruise. Our first night at sea they served creme brulee for desert, doesn't get any better than that !!! We took the behind the scenes tour of the ship, it was incredible. The entire ship was spotless. The meat freezer was as big as our house. I love being at sea especially when the ship doesnot carry a USN designation. We were on the Carnival Freedom she is 952 feet long and is 110,000 gross tons, top speed of 22.5 knots.

JP: forgot one thing, the ship tour also included the bridge. The view was spectacular. The bridge was a very comfortable, inviting place. Nothing like a cramped, cluttered navy war ship.
