Somewhere in the Tasman Sea

G'day Mates--

I have gorgeous photos but cannot get them onto the blog today.  We are at the bottom of the world and the wi-fi is in and out.  Having trouble uploading anything with more than a byte or two.

We sailed at 8 pm last night from the Milford Sound - in the midst of glacially formed fiords.  Words cannot describe the magesty of the mountains surrounding the sound.  We have sailed through the night and are now in Dusty Sound, coming around to the eastern side of NZ.  The ship is elegant and our stateroom is huge.  Wonderful showers -- amazing.

Today we are sea and I hope to make some progress on my latest needlepoint.  We are also working on finding a Bridge game.  We are having a ball -- all the people are nice.  Lots of French on the ship and they are not happy about having Yankees onboard but we are all behaving.

We get your emails sporatically.  And - at times the texting works.

Now I will press "publish" and hopefully this will upload.
