The Beginning

Two weeks from today I will depart for Halifax, Nova Scotia, and the next day I'll get aboard the MV Explorer, along with 700 college students, 30 Life Long Learners. On August 28 the ship will embark for Cadiz, Spain and then ports westward around the world. I'm now in the process of getting shots, medications a bank accounts all in order before I start the packing process. My daughter, Wenda and husband Gregg will board the ship in Norfolk, VA, on August 24. She will lecture in Anthropology and will be making her forth trip on Semester at Sea. The Explorer sails from Norfolk to Halifax for final boarding
