Dear Mr. Schmitt; 
I have just noticed that Iferch 12th. is on 
a Monday, therefore it woriLd be more convenient for us 
to start the cruise on 'hiesday, March 13th, You world be 
welcome to join the ship on the evening of March 12th. 
in time for drinks and dinner, if you would care to do so. 
The whole point being that we would like the 
Monday to get last minute stores and provision, since if 
started on the Monday, we could do no provisioning the 
day before. This is just a suggestion when making your 
final plans . 
Very sincerely, 
/s/ ¥.E.B,ia.cholson
