Congratulations on booking a trip on The Eye of the Wind.  It's a great ship and a wonderful experience.  This year was my second trip on the vessel, 10 days from the Caribbean to Bermuda.  Both voyages were excellent, with more wind and whales on the first one, but just as good a group of passengers and crew on both trips.   I celebrated my 91st birthday the day we arrived in Bermuda, and the captain had both the passengers and crew sing happy birthday to me, all at once but in their native tongues.  I didn't understand a word except for "Bud".
