7 hours ahead

but who's countin, right?

so London is 6 hours ahead and we land there rather early in the morning and then we travel through one more time zone on our way to BCN, but at least at that point we stay in one zone for the whole trip. I did not envy the transatlantic cruisers when I heard of not only their rough seas but also there loss of an hour basically every night of the trip.

So I'm back in Chi town this evening and we have a lovely forecast of storm storms and more storms... which means Bill will most likely not be mowing our yard.... which means on top of the high grass tons (literally) of dead cicadas. I have looked up the forecast for BCN and it seems a bit better than Chi town but about the same temp and instead of a 40-60% chance of t-storms it's a chance of showers. Mickey mouse ponchos? check.

Things are coming together quickly i got a few more "gifts" for our exchange since the number has increased since I fist purchased items. For those of you not in the know I am a member of an online chat board about all things Disney called DIS and have been chatting with said DISers about our trip for some time now. Anyway we are doing a small gift exchange on the ship along with a get together or two. It will be fun to meet some people as nuts for Disney as I am.

And with that it's bed time (or for the folks on the boat currently breakfast time).
