Want a Cruise to Alaska and Hear former Senator Bob Graham :)
Below is a NCL press release....


NCL ANNOUNCES GUEST SPEAKER SENATOR BOB GRAHAM ABOARD NORWEGIAN SUN

MIAMI ˆ May 17, 2005 ˆ Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL) is proud to
announce that former United States Senator Bob Graham will be featured
as a guest speaker aboard Norwegian Sun for a seven-day cruise
roundtrip from Vancouver to Alaska, departing on July 31, 2005. In his
lectures, Senator Graham will share recollections from his almost 40
years in public life serving as a Florida Legislator, Governor, United
States Senator and recent Presidential candidate. His wife, Adele, who
will also serve as a guest lecturer, will join Graham on the cruise.

„We are honored that such a respected, historic figure as Senator
Graham has chosen NCL as an ideal forum to share his insight and
knowledge,‰ said Colin Veitch, president and CEO of NCL. „In addition
to entertaining our guests, NCL has always been committed to providing
riveting, thought-provoking educational opportunities for guests. By
bringing cultural experiences such as distinguished guest lecturers to
our passengers, we hope that they leave with more than they came.‰

Senator Graham will speak on the topic „Intelligence Matters,‰ which
is also the name of his critically acclaimed new book he will sign on
board. Senator Graham, who will become a Senior Fellow at Harvard
University‚s Kennedy School of Government this fall, will also address
America‚s challenges today when he speaks on „Public Service Memoirs
and The Challenges Facing America.‰

Joining Senator Graham will be his wife, Florida‚s former First Lady
Adele Graham, who will speak on „Reflections on life in the Governor‚s
Mansion and in Washington, DC.‰ She will discuss the public and
private challenges she faced in Tallahassee and Washington, DC and the
excitement of being at the center of it all for three decades.

The Grahams are also pleased that the families of their four
daughters, including eleven grandchildren, will join them on the
cruise.

The stunning Norwegian Sun will depart Vancouver on July 31, sailing
to such popular Alaskan ports of call as Ketchikan, Wrangell, Juneau
and Skagway. This itinerary allows guests the chance to explore the
tidewater glaciers of Sawyer Glacier and the awe-inspiring Inside
Passage.

NCL Corporation ("NCL") is an innovative cruise company headquartered
in Miami, Florida, with a fleet of 16 ships in service and under
construction. The corporation oversees the operations of Norwegian
Cruise Line, NCL America, and Orient Lines. On July 4, 2004, NCL made
U.S. maritime history when it introduced the reflagged Pride of Aloha,
the first modern U.S.-flagged cruise ship in nearly 50 years. The
2,002 passenger ship is 100% U.S.-crewed, and sails year-round in
Hawai`i under the NCL America brand alongside Norwegian Wind from
sister brand, Norwegian Cruise Line. The company is currently building
five ships, including two more for the NCL America brand in Hawai`i -
Pride of America (delivery in June 2005) and Pride of Hawai`i
(delivery in April 2006). Norwegian Jewel will join the Norwegian
Cruise Line fleet in August 2005 and two further Norwegian Jewel class
ships are scheduled for delivery in 2007.
