I'm back from my cruise upon the sea!! I survived. Just!! Lets see we started saturday in a greek restaurant with fantastic food and great red wine. Then went aboard the boat where the whisky waited. Between 6 pm and 9 pm i tasted at least 9 different whiskies, scotch, irish, finnish and american. The Scotch and Irish were the best. Then i sat down with some friends i hadn't met in a year and talked for a while. In that time i think two beers somehow went down the hatch. We had a little evening meal around 10 pm and at about 1 am i went to bed. At 10 am there was a brunch where i ate copious amounts of eggs and bacon. I was HUNGRY! Then it was time for more whisky. Between 11 am and 12 i sank 7 whiskies, and 3 sherries. Then i admit i rested awhile and then it was time to say goodbye which i did by drinking two glasses of very good champagne. I managed to get off the boat and get home. I was a little tired i admit but miracolously not hungover. The trick is to blend the spirits in a correct, right??
Glad you had such a fantastic time, Kurben.

Watched the movie Salt with Angelina Jolie. An old one now but i was happily surprised that in comparison to similar today it was way better. Jolie is a really badass agent but for which country? Full of action and its nice to see a woman leave a string of unconscious men in her wake (some even dead...). Didn't see it when it aired 20-25 years ago but it was worth seeing if you like a good actionflick.

Sounds like you had a lot of fun. But for whisky I would head straight for Jamisons Irish whisky preferably in Irish coffee. Have you had one of these? It has whipped cream on top.

Reading posts, especially lately, I realize that I haven't gotten to know the fine people here nearly well enough. I can see that there are friendships that have been forged that will last long after this board is gone. I'm sorry I won't get to know more of you that well. My loss, entirely.
:(
that is true for so many of us. But we can all continue to keep in touch and perhaps meet up as we do our own travels.:)

I've heard folks talk about doing exactly that. I wish I'd gotten to know some of you well enough to do that.
We've got one more Con left before we go, don't we? Maybe I'll meet some of you face to face before it's all said and done.
:grin:
