Pictures (1 of 3)

Ok, it's a little later than I intended, but today is Elaine Stritch's birthday and to honor her I started celebrating early and didn't get around to posting these last night. So, without further ado, here is my pre-boarding picture:

They take everyone's picture as you're about to board the ship, presumably so that if you try to sue them after the cruise saying you got injured, they've got a picture of what you look like beforehand and can see if you already had the injury prior to boarding, then after the cruise they try to sell you the picture. As I mentioned Thursday, I usually don't buy these but this one turned out fairly well, you can't tell that I only got 4 hours of sleep and endured a bumpy plane ride, a bumpy bus ride, and stood in line for almost 2 hours to get to this point.
