Orange Poppy


Today we should be leaving Fort Lauderdale, Florida on the Coral Princess for a 10 day cruise to the Panama Canal. This is one of the 3 places Jimmy and have wanted to visit since we met. We will celebrate our 11th wedding anniversary while we are on this cruise. The other 2 places we are still waiting to visit are Alaska and the Outer Banks of North Carolina.
