The reason for the Season

I have found that my sense of time/day/season has been distorted since getting on ships. It was hard to believe that it was December and the holidays were around the corner while I was slapping on SPF45 and trying to get 'bathing suit' ready.

While there were no blustery days, carols being played in the mall and rushing from store to store trying to find all the 'right' gifts, we did get together to raise money for the Children in Panama. After raising the money, decorating the cookies, buying the gifts and wrapping ~ it came time on the 24th to visit the Orphanage and deliver the gifts.

You sometimes get lost in the whole commercialism of the holidays and forget what the season is all about...
