Sorry Jad ,before you get the wrong impression.I meant Eastern and not EASTER. somehow the letter N got astray.

Thank you Jadran for your Best wishes for the year 2013 and for your comments and friendship across the Med, re the Easter Med Cruise mind you it still in my dreams but if it should somehow come into reality you will be the first to know of my intetions in visiting your homeland.Thanks friend.

Thank you very much Emmanuel ... thank you!
From my side, the same very best wishes for the New Year to you and your family!!

I'm looking forward to subsequent exchange of comments in/and throughout the forthcoming year 2013 ..... and maybe we shall even have opportunity to meet ... during your Adriatic cruise the next summer, hopefully!
