Here we go again: boarding the Sea Princess in 42 hours

Rather than starting a new blog for our 2018 travels, I think it's just as easy to extend our two-year-old blog.  You can check our itinerary on the 2018 tab, above.

That blog came to an abrupt end in Amsterdam because that's where John broke his leg, and thereafter, we were too busy.  His leg did not hinder him from exploring the subsequent ports but it did cause him to lose his independence morning and night.  Once he was up and dressed, he could function normally since the broken leg caused him no difficulty getting about in his powered wheelchair.  But it was stressful not knowing for a week whether we'd be forced by the doctor to disembark.  Luckily, we were allowed to complete our cruise.

In 2016, we also cruised on the Sea Princess, but we only did 75% of the world tour, disembarking at New York.  This time, we are staying on the ship from Sydney to Sydney.  No packing up and moving luggage.  Hurrah!
