Hello Family & Friends-- Thanks for keeping up with me as I sail on the 2008 Semester at Sea Voyage. Without a doubt, I'll have stories about working students, exploring the globe, and learning along the way.
Please keep in touch with me. This site is great because you can send emails to me or write on my wall. Also, if you want to send me a letter/card (and I know you do!), click on the "Blog" tab, then "Maryland"...great detailed instructions located there…

Hi Tati, the whole family is missing you so much. We have a snowman calander that keeps track of Christmas. Tiffeney said that you will stay here for 13 days. Is that true??? We are so exicted that you are coming in 4 days. When we went to grandmas and grandpas house the other day, we saw Lemont and Dana. Lemont was watching Batman which i dont like. Uncle Jr. was crazy. Well i have to go. XOXOXO Tracey

Enjoy the remaining days of the voyage!!! I am sure you are ready to get off the ship by now from the last two long stretches across.... but when you leave, you will want to go back on!! Have fun with closing on a ship, re-entry discussions, PACKING and putting together all of the pieces of the journey. I am here for you if you need to talk when you return... I will listen to EVERY Story you want to tell! Have fun in Costa Rica.

Hey U..we were very excited to hear from you on turkey day. Your journey is almost over and we were waiting to read your blog after your subpar experience in China. We love you sister locks, brown skin and beautiful smile and wait for your arrival back to the US! PS...send me an email with your Christmas list of 5 things to choose from.

Hey Tosh!! Well, you are getting ready to cross the internatinoal date line soon, or did already.... hang in there... your body will be all messed up with sleep, I know mine was.... up all night and sleeping all day for a few days of readjusting to being BEHIND the USA now!! Just think, you get another day back to your life to relive again.. how cool!! Enjoy the next two long stretches at sea.... enjoy the ocean, enjoy the students and sharing your experiences. Your voyage is coming to an end soon, and these long days at sea really give you the time to reflect and look back at all you have done and experience. Enjoy life at SEA!! Life in the USA is getting COLD, GAS is dropping like crazy, stock market keeps dropping.... got to love the USA!! Can't wait to talk to you again soon! - Mario
