Recruits & a Tough Decision

<p>Nope it's a copy of the REAL DEAL docked in New London...</p>

<p>sorry - a little slow -- the Eagle, as in the CG ship! Much prettier than the Kings Pointer.</p>

<p>Ha that's ok...I tend to lurk a little here to keep an eye on my good friend Jamzmom.</p>

<p>And its a good thing too! I need watchin'! Where were you when I just had wet hands, was barefoot on cement & and plugged in a shop vac? ZAP! My arm is a little tingly..... Duh....</p>

<p>The Eagle beats the Kings Pointer hands down. Our kids mess with drums of oil & equipment while the Eagle's kids are off playing in the rigging. No fair as Jamz once said. I could kick myself. When doing some online shopping I found the Eagle as a ship in a bottle. I can't find the website again. Arrrgggg. Now that free time has come again, I'll have to look. I love the website the Eagle has tracking it in its travels.</p>

<p>Good one Taffy.
This coming summer the 3/c's(my son's group) get to sail on her again; this time for five weeks! Rumor has it she's headed for the Caribbean! What a tough life these guys live! </p>

<p>There are 3 NCL US flagged ships touring the Hawaiian islands with USMMA cadets on board. Tough job, someone has to do it! <a href="http://www.ncl.com/ncla/index.htm%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.ncl.com/ncla/index.htm&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>Nice! Oh to be young and at sea! Instead of old and adrift...LOL</p>
