Pete and Sharon were introduced to us by Dick and Deb. They had all been on an overland trip to the Great Barrier Reef in Australia. Pete is 65 and Sharon is 61. They’ve been married 41 years and have 3 grown sons and 7 grandchildren. Pete is the retired CFO of Carhartt Company and Sharon was a homemaker. They live in Plymouth, Michigan which is near Detroit. Pete is a graduate of Michigan State University.
Sharon is a lover of white wine and drinks a glass every night. Pete doesn’t drink at all but you can count on seeing them around the ship, especially in the evenings, Pete carrying the wine glass with Sharon beside him. He absolutely adores her and they are so much fun to be with. Pete has a dry sense of humor and makes us laugh with his antics. Sharon is bubbly and very expressive and cute as a button. She’s 4’11” tall. She loves to say that her sons didn’t realize she was short until recently; that’s how much of a presence she has.
We’ve been on a few excursions with them and we always have a great time. We’re planning to take a river cruise with them in 2010 and I believe we’ll be lifelong friends.
PS: The picture of Sharon and me with the white-haired man was taken last night. He’s Merrill Osmond, one of the 3 Osmond Brothers (sans Donny) who performed for us Friday night and put on a very good show. He’s a grandfather as you can see. He and his wife are traveling together and are a very nice couple.
