At Sea

The sculpture is of the little mermaid. Hans Christian Anderson wrote a story about the little mermaid that later became a Disney's Little Mermaid movie. The story is the same. The mermaid falls in love and trades her singing voice for her legs. The prince does not know her so she goes back to the sea. Danmark is very much like most Scandinavian towns.

We were in Germany yesterday. I was very sick and stayed on the boat. I have had a bad cold the entire trip. I am taking meds, since leaving, and feeling better today.

We will be in Tallinn, Estonia tomorrow. It was part of Russia and was one of the first to form it's own state. Three million people held hands on the border of their state to show Russia that they were with drawing. Those people formed three states. All of this happen in 1989. Not very long ago. It goes to show that if people really want something they can stand together and achieve great things.

Deb, The ship we are own is a new ship and was launched in July of 2008. It is truly amazing. I love the colors. Pink, Gray, Silver, Black and lime green. All my colors. There is black tile every where with lime green grout. The decor is very make believe and fun. I feel like I am in a Dr Seuss story book with all the horns and shinny surfaces.

Will post photos tomorrow.
