We are back in the states, and there is an interesting little bit of karma to relate. Beause I had reported my passport stolen, Princess received an immigration alert on me, and we had to be escorted off the boat by a Princess rep and be personally handed over to an immigration officer. This was no big deal, as they just wanted to verify what had happened and be sure that it was me bearing the replacement passport, but it meant we got to go to the head of an hour long customs line. The old folks were foaming at the mouth as we sailed past them. Jene heard several cries of "Why are they special?" and "They aren't using a wheelchair!" Don't mess with retirees in a line. There was a near riot getting back on the tenders in Cannes when a port officer tried to speed things up by creating a second line. Anyway, we had armed escort at this point, and were able to sail through without the character building benefits of the line. C'est la Vie!
It was a wonderful trip, we had a great time, and while we won't do it again soon, we will do it again.

Welcome home Scott and Jene...
I am so sorry to hear about your misfortunes though! Not a nice way to end your cruise! But I must add that you had me chuckling with the catch up blogs..you certainly kept your wonderful sense of humor through out it all! Remind me never to ask Uncle C if he has taken his meds in a resturant..
Can't wait to hear all the details!
Love you both,
Aunt Sue
