Hi Eric
Rats, I screwed up and now the secret is out. It is a fact that we planted three purple prince flowering crabs in the front yard last spring as a tribute to our fellow midwesterner and I could be heard singing Purple Rain as I watered them all last summer. Yes, you will have to pay to see that.

I'll be in Greece the day reservations open - I hope the Viking Star has good WIFI, We'll be 7 hours ahead so my I can sneak the reservation in at 12:01AM and beat you both!

We were on the Viking Star last Sept. Gorgeous ship. Wifi varied, but found that late night was a pretty good time to use it.

Has anyone recently been offered an earlier date? We are pretty much at the end of March already and are scheduled for June 29 delivery. Getting the chance to move up even a few weeks would be nice. Have been biding our time since the last move up and just waiting for the increased production capability to result in earlier completion dates being offered.

Hi - The last thing I heard from ETI (Tina) was on March 8th where she indicated that "more movement of dates coming in the next six weeks".
So, I guess we're only in about three weeks since that particular email. We're anxiously waiting also so we can finalize summer plans. Hoping we hear soon!

Good to know, I would imagine there are quite a few folks who would welcome the chance to get there Escape a little sooner. We put down our initial deposit in early August of last year so worse case scenario would be having to wait nearly 11 months. I can just hear Willie Nelson singing, "Just can't wait to get on the road again".
