He is nice to everybody, and has an OK sense of humor, and unlike Stephanie, he does not talk down to people. The email address that I supplied you with may not seem like it is mine, but I got it from my sister. That is her old email, and my new email. I have one more question, I was wondering if you will be on the Splendor as the Cruise Director, if you are i suggest you take your whole entertainment crew with you!

What a rude witch! It is not as if her cabin steward was seated next to her in the dining room! You were ashore relaxing and enjoying some time off.

Did you find a camera charger for the poor couple that lost their luggage? They seem like nice people from their letter.

Welcome to the blog thingy, and thank you so much for your service! :-)Hi John and Heidi, Funny coincidence - last night I was watching a DVD episode of "I Spy" (1960's TV spy show) which was set in Venice. The heroes were ordered to guard a DaVinci painting which was being donated by it's American owner to a Venice museum. They asked why they were given this "babysitting" duty. Their contact said the good publicity from this donation would make up for a lot of "Ugly Americans". Hmmm - do you think your cafe "lady" (and I use that term in only the very broadest sense) could have been in Venice in the 1960's?I have one suggestion for your info sheet. When you mention restoration work, you might want to give a few more details. If I saw the Last Supper with 2 or 3 restorers working on it with small hand tools, I think that would make it even more interesting to me. But the pictures you've shown of the Parthenon practically swathed in scaffolding, well, I'd still go to see it, but it would be a bit of a disappointment, and I would like to be forwarned.Your joke to DWA76 reminded me of this one: Four men were out playing golf on a beautiful day. A road ran near the fairway and a funeral procession was moving slowly along it. One of the men stopped playing and held his cap over his heart until the hearse had move out of sight. His companions were impressed. "Gosh Bill, that was very nice of you to show respect like that." Bill said, "It was the least I could do. After all, we had been married for 43 years."

Hi John and Heidi,
Funny coincidence – last night I was watching a DVD episode of “I Spy” (1960′s TV spy show) which was set in Venice. The heroes were ordered to guard a DaVinci painting which was being donated by it’s American owner to a Venice museum. They asked why they were given this “babysitting” duty. Their contact said the good publicity from this donation would make up for a lot of “Ugly Americans”. Hmmm – do you think your cafe “lady” (and I use that term in only the very broadest sense) could have been in Venice in the 1960′s?

I have one suggestion for your info sheet. When you mention restoration work, you might want to give a few more details. If I saw the Last Supper with 2 or 3 restorers working on it with small hand tools, I think that would make it even more interesting to me. But the pictures you’ve shown of the Parthenon practically swathed in scaffolding, well, I’d still go to see it, but it would be a bit of a disappointment, and I would like to be forwarned.

Your joke to DWA76 reminded me of this one:
Four men were out playing golf on a beautiful day. A road ran near the fairway and a funeral procession was moving slowly along it. One of the men stopped playing and held his cap over his heart until the hearse had move out of sight.

I'm with big Ed...feel free to apologize if you must, but hand her these comments too. I think you handled yourself better than many would have in that situation. I'm quite glad that I wasn't a witness in fact...even at another table...I'm a teacher, and I don't even let children get away with that kind of crap; No one has a right to speak to another human being the way that this woman spoke to you; regardless of their job, appearance, race, class...it doesn't matter...it is just not right. Thank you for being you... Jenn John…
