Yesterday we went from pollywogs to shellbacks, amidst great hoopla and silly ceremonies out at the pool deck. It was an absolutely gorgeous day, blue sky above, blue water below. We were able to take a photo of our friend Greg along for the ride; he had always wanted to cross the equator on the open deck of a ship....but passed away before he couod do so. Greg died on Oct. 11, his 56th birthday, and he crossed the equator with us on Oct. 20, the same day as his funeral back home in Albuquerque.
What a wonderful tribute to your friend. <3
