This is my 2nd Mediterranean cruise, after the 1st and best cruise I’ve ever had taking the 17-day Aegean & Mediterranean Cruise with the Orient Line 7/18/01-8/3/01 (Istanbul, Kusadasi,Ephesus, Detos-Mykonos,Santorini, Valletta, Sorrento, Pompeii, Rome, Livorno, Pisa, Portofino, Cannes, Palma de Mallorca, Barcelona) with J, Dan,Marc, Mary, Enoch & Ramona. This time, it’s Barcelona, Rome, Athens, Kusadasi-Ephesus-Izmir, Alexandria-Cairo-Giza pyramids-Sphynx, Valletta, then back to Barcelona on NCL Jade 12/5/09-12/20/09. B/c of this, I escaped the 1st HUGE snow storm in the Washington Area (actually, the airport was closed on 12/19/09, just 1 day before we were scheduled to fly back). I also escaped the 2nd huge snow storm with a Caribbean Cruise, leaving BWI airport on Friday 2/5/10 at 8:40am, just 1.5 hours before record snow storm arrived, causing the airport to close for the rest of the day. What a MIRACLE my life has been! A special THANKS and XOXOXO to all the Gods and Guardian Angels for looking after me. The 1st piano piece is from the Spanish Composer Granados, played by my talented son, Marc ( www.mtpiano.com ). The 2nd is also a very “émouvant” song called Eskidendi sang by Turkish singer Sezen Aksu.
