The day has finally come! We leave tonight to start our 30th anniversary cruise:). Yea! Yea! We will be traveling to the Jewels of the Aegean on the Oceania Riviera. Well, that really means we’re going to Greece and Israel!! Can you tell that I am excited?
Oceania has been so nice to work with so far. They sent us a very nice itinerary booklet with our names printed on it. It is very customized to us. We feel pampered already!
This is a 5 1/2 star ship that is geared to food lovers like myself. I really am a foodie so I am excited to see what makes this ship known for its dining.
I of course am gathering my travel projects. I would never let 19 hours on a plane go without some handwork. You get me, right? We crocheter/quilters are a keep your hands busy breed!
I figure that now is the time to start (and hopefully catch up) on my peacock bag. Aren’t the colors pretty? They are the originals from the CAL. I love my little starfish stitch markers. They match so well!
I ordered this beautiful yarn cutter to wear as a necklace in the plane. I didn’t even know they made these until one of you fantastic bloggers blogged about it. I wish I could remember who, but I can’t so to all of you, Thx!
I also ordered this fantastic camel hair yarn with thoughts of the Middle East.
It is really soft and pretty, but still kind of smells like a camel, lol:)! I wound these hanks up into two lovely cakes of yarn that I am also going to bring just in case I finish the peacock bag. It doesn’t look that hard…..
I plan on buying Israeli and Greek yarn and fabric to bring home as my souvenirs. Won’t that be fun?
Soooo… I am off to start packing!
SWEET!!!

Have a wonderful time, and Happy Anniversary to you both!

I hope you have a wonderful time! I can relate; I know I wouldn’t be able to make it through a flight that long without yarn!
