The packing has begun!

The most common question we get is ” how do you pack for 6 months?”  Well, the good news is that the ship does our laundry.  So our answer is typically “you pack for 2 weeks”.

Here’s a shot of the beginning of the packing-we are sending three bags directly to the ship and will bring the rest when we fly to Miami.

Our sons are meeting us in Boston with our liquid supplies and snorkel equipment so we don’t have to pack those.File Jun 18, 3 31 20 PM

It all started in Philadelphia

We walk on the Schuylkill River Banks and one day in November 2013 (before we had even officially moved to Philadelphia), we found out that we had both gotten an email from Oceania Cruise lines (one of our favorites) about a 6 month world cruise.  Each of us got very excited about it and when we talked about it, we decided it was something we would plan! So almost 18 months after making the initial reservation, we are almost ready to say “bon voyage”!
