Re: The post entitled, How I Came to be Here: what a great surprise I had today when our son Peter emailed me these links to a website with photos and information about the CP Liner we sailed here on, (The Empress of England,) as well as a copy of the passenger list for September 27th, 1969. In the ship's log, you can read about the storm that stopped just short of hurricane force.
The Empress of England
Empress of England Log and Tourist Passenger List, September 27th 1969 (Pages 2 & 3)
Peter, thank you!

Who is R. F. T. Burston? How do you get Paul out of that?
Oh, it is too cool that someone actually looked! :) R.F.T. Burston is Paul's Dad: Ronald, Frances, Thomas. The rest of us are on page 3 of the tourist passenger list. Paul is P.R. Burston, and I am Mrs. B.C. Burston. Paul's mum and his sisters and brother are there, too.
Hey, i looked, too! I thought it odd that Paul's dad was listed as "Mr." and not "Rev." and that you merited initials (B.C.) between "Mrs." and "Burston", but Paul's mum did not. Weird, eh?
P.S. Ron looked too!
