MO & PAT - Cruise Connection

Pat & Mo

We are Maureen (Mo) and Pat Moudakis.We currently reside in Pismo Beach, (yeah! ) in a little casita in the Pismo Dunes Senior Park. If you visit you will be greeted by Flip and Flap-the pink flamingoes the Davis’ gave us when we moved into our first mobile home park in Lodi after 30 years in Burbank. 

Diana and Roger came into our lives via our lifelong Burbank friends Karen and Jim Allison, Duane Davis and Russell Cobb. We think the first meeting came at one of the Allison’s amazing Halloween parties, where we would have been introduced to the creative charm of Diana and the creative-risqué side of Roger. But wherever, it occurred they have added so much fun to our lives.  

This cruise will be our third renewal celebration. The October 2000 Hawaii trip coincided with our son Nick’s honeymoon on Maui so he and Andrea got to spend an evening with their extended family or why they have pictures of Mom, Dad, and their friends in their honeymoon album.   

Our idea of cruising is more kayaking than by ship. Food, means more to one of us than the other. Drinking? Two glasses of wine for Pat, none for me. We do love the dancing part of cruising tho' ! But that we could have done on one of the two other cruises that we were invited to go on in October (three this October, none last October, what's up with that?) So why did we choose this one? 

                                                  Because it’s Diana and Roger!

We have all experienced their warmth, the attention to every detail, the kindness and the caring, the laughter and silliness.  When people asked us about our itinerary for the Caribbean cruise we really didn’t have much of an answer for them because it doesn’t matter to us where we are going or what we are doing. We are going with Diana and Roger and the dear friends we share. 

Congratulations on your 25th and thank you for putting together such a fun way for all of us to be a part of the celebration of a marriage.
