It’s my sister’s birthday today and I went over to meet her for morning tea. Happy birthday, sis!
I have a release date for WANDERLUST. It’s coming out on April 18, 2008. Once I get myself organized I’ll put up an excerpt on my website.
And finally here’s a few more trip photos. The first is of the Pride of Aloha, the ship we cruised on. It’s very pretty with its lei of flowers. The ship is moored off Kona on the Big Island. This was the only place where we caught tenders from the ship to get to shore. We moored at a wharf on all the other islands.
This is the view from our cabin porthole when we sailed past the Kaua’i Coast.
And this is me aboard the ship at one of the happy hours at the poolside bar. There were 2000 passengers on board the ship. I don’t know where they all hid because I didn’t see them! The only thing we ever needed to queue for were the lifts. After the first time waiting we gave up and hit the stairs all the time. Hmmm, come to think of it that was Mr. Munro’s idea. The sneak had me in training for that hill climb and I didn’t realize!

Damn it Shelley! I’ve always wanted to go on a cruise and you’re not making my lack of having done so make me feel any better.
Especially those wonderful pictures of … happy hour!!!!! Oh all right, Hawaii. I was there once, but I was just a kid then.
(Love the stair training, btw).

Oh I went on a cruise in the Caribbean for my honeymoon. It is the best I love cruising. I so need a vacation.
Oh and Wanderlust comes out two days after my birthday. That’ll be a nice birthday present to myself.

Ah, I love holidays, but the pile of laundry on returning home always makes me come to Earth with a bump. I keep telling Mr. Munro that there’s more to life than housework and that a maid would solve the problem.
I can’t wait for Wanderlust to come out. It’s a romantic suspense set in India – not quite as spicy as my normal EC work hence it’s going out at Cerridwen Press. I still managed to get a bit of spice in there though.
Amy – I see you’re on the coming soon page.
Lisa – cruises are the ultimate way to relax. You definitely need to try one.
Hi Lucinda. Thanks so much.

Julia – yes, I think I was a bit slow catching on. I’ll be wiser next time
