text: You get to help other people and animals. Before I got here I was a small little town boy, and I really never got to experince the majic hidding behind of being a Seagoing Cowboy. I even got a little of the benefit of seeing Europe and China. I also went to Acropolis in Greece was special. So was taking a gondola ridein Venice, Italy, a city with streets of water. I also got to see an excavated castle in Crete and marveled at the Panama Canal on my way to China.
