I will post about the rest of the trip, with photodump, soon, probably tonight, but for now I would just like to say that I am here and happy to be here and especially happy that my luggage arrived with me.

I'll do my best to at least scan my flist but I doubt I will catch up completely, so if there's anything you think I should see (big news, fic, etc.) please comment with a link. Thanks!

Vacation report

So when we last saw our hero, she was heading off to go read a book by the pool, which she did, and managed to not get too badly sunburned in the process. That night was the last BNL concert of the trip, which was, as expected, a great show -- not quite as many true "rarities" as in the Tuesday evening concert, but it was an Ed-heavy set (there are two singers, Steve is the main lead singer and I like him a lot, but I adore Ed's voice and his songs tend to be more my style, although there are of course exceptions), and that always makes me happy. Then luvmoose and I attempted to crash early, but we were kept awake by loud music on the deck above us. A few times I considered getting up and going to watch, but I didn't, and now I regret it because so many people told us that it turned into an absolutely amazing jam session with nearly all the musicians that had come on the boat.

( More, including the story of the luggage. Oh so long. )

So I was going to put up a bunch of pictures but thanks to American's baggage "service" this post is already ridiculously long and so I'll save the pics for later tonight. A few from the cruise, more from yesterday's adventures.

For all my complaining above, it was a really great trip, and I'm so glad I went. Lots of excellent music, and it was fun as always to hang out with luvmoose and her friends. BNL announced on Thursday that they're doing another cruise next year, and though my work schedule and finances may not allow it, I'll go if I can.

Photos galore

So I actually took all of these. You can tell because they suck. ;) Well, okay, they're all right. But they aren't nearly as good as T's usually are. But I still like them

These photos and more uploaded to Flickr. This is my first time playing with Flickr so I hope it works.... Any issues with seeing them, let me know.
