First Night Aboard

I have safely arrived aboard the Empire State VI and fortunately we still have internet so I can put up a quick post. I have unpacked my belongings in my cabin and have found that my cabinmate has moved in as well. He has yet to make an appearance so I have that encounter to look forward to. The day has been a fair blur as I finished packing and did some last minute errands today. Right now I have descended into the lower decks and am in the library.

Just looking about I can already tell that I will be spending all day tomorrow straightening out the place so I can make sure I know where everything is. I also need to decide what movie to play for tomorrow. Any suggestions are welcome. I have almost all the major motion pictures that have come out in the last few years. I also have this tendency toward a wicked streak where I will play for them just really ungermane movies for these cadets like maybe "Pretty Woman" or "Beaches." Anyway, I'll let you know what is on tap.

Now what is a bit disconcerting is that while my email seems to be installed, the default password is not working. I am hoping that this is just something minor since from here on out until I get to port email will be my only means of communication so I am anxious about that.

Oh yes, and my email will be jwilliams.tses@seawave.net, not my work email. They assign a different one while we are at sea.

In any event, that is all for tonight. I'll send you an update tomorrow (email working provided).

Fair Winds and Following Seas,
Joe
