For those of you who don't know, Archbishop Desmond Tutu is going to be sailing with us the entire time. In the past, he has done guest lectures, but never before has he been on the ship for the whole voyage.
What he has to say about his trip with SAS spring 2007:
"I have had and will have again this coming spring the good fortune to be a small part of a wonderful experiment in education called Semester at Sea," said Archbishop Tutu, who won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1984.
"The mission of this grand experiment has been to foster greater intercultural understanding by exposing its participants-young and old, students and faculty-to people and cultures around the world while providing them with a sea-going classroom in which to study and absorb what they've seen and learned."

Hi Jord!
I am so happy for you. All your planning and hard work is really rewarding you NOW!
I can't believe you are with a living legend, as history shall tell. Please try to engage Tutu I'm private conversation and really get to know him if possible. This is one of those very special once-in-a-lifetime oppurtunities.
Please keep us all posted. I LOVE YOU!!!!! XOX
Dear Jordi,
It is 12:30 P.M. and the rain is coming down. Hope you are having a great time which you will never forget. South Africa should be a blast! Take photos to share with us.

Dear Jordi,
We finally could read the comments and add ours once again. We are going to be with Gary and the entire local family to celebrate his 50th birthday this evening. Murray and Linda are joining us at Gary's invitation. We wish that Tova, you and Kathi could be with us. Love you and think of you all the time.
