For the record, my sea duty counter when I retired stood @ 5 years, 7 months and 21 days. Since I was in aviation, that time was all embarked on US Navy vessels and most of it was underway. So it would seem more than odd that I am actually looking forward to another week and a half at sea.
Yes, the SO and I have confirmed that both us have officially entered the land of the old-timers by booking a cruise this fall here:
On the plus side, this will be the first cruise I make where I don’t have to hide my drinking on board.
