I work for Portland 9-1-1, not as a dispatcher but as an administrative assistant. It's interesting work. We have 3 grown sons, but no daughter-in-laws just yet. I'm hoping it won't be too much longer as we desperately need more females in this family. So far we've done 3 cruises, one to Alaska and two Med cruises. We're looking forward to cruising the British Isles and meeting everyone. It's going to be a great trip!

I am a single retired teacher who can't get enough travel. I enjoy meeting people and sharing travel stories. I found taking small private tours really enhances the experience. Cruise critic has been very helpful in making those connections. I appreciate all the hard work so many do to enhance everyone's trip. I have cruised a lot mostly on Celebrity and Princess. I'm looking forward to meeting you. I am traveling with Penny Raymond.
