We are getting married!

We met on MS Volendam, Holland America Line on a Transpacific and Australia Circumnavigation cruise. Robert claims that he noticed me in the very beginning of the cruise at an early morning stretch class, which I attended religiously. But I haven't noticed him until one day in the pool area of the Lido deck, where I was contemplating on ordering a bowl of Asian soup. Robert approached me and started a conversation about soups and Asian spices. The next thing you know we are both at a ballroom dance class and neither of us had a partner! And we danced away to the end of the cruise.

Next spring Robert came to Maine to be closer to me. And it didn't take long before he proposed. We got engaged. We're so excited to celebrate this next chapter in our lives with you. See you in Florida!
