Merry Christmas and Happy New Year From Carlsbad

The stockings were hung by the chimney with care .......Brrrrr, it is cold here.The tree And the turkey filled the house with those great Christmas smells.

We ate ourselves silly (Dana, Joe, Meghan)And then we played dominoes! At home we had a few chores to catch up on. Steve trimmed alot of palms


And caught up on some reading. The best part of being home is spending time with family (Anne's mom Sunny and Steve's dad Joe) Anne's sister Lisa and husband Joe

And our great daughters Dana and Meghan We've been to Long Beach where Steve's dad lives on a canal....with boats


His cute California bungalow house is one of the few originals homes left in this very unique community. The window is decorated every Christmas by Anne's mom Sunny.

We visited our hometown of San Pedro, home of the Los Angeles harbor. It was a crystal clear morning with the San Bernardino Mountains in the background.

We are having a great time in California but look forward to being warm again onboard Fine Line.
Ho Ho Ho

Who won that dominoes match? We've got a dunce cap for them! Think we're going to have a New Year's Eve match off here - not quite the same playing with 2 people though. Miss everyone! Have a great New Years!
