have a cruise booked with Cyndi and Ron…  we booked it in October I think…  lots has gone on since then – Christmas, Mexico vacation with the whole family, anniversary of George’s death and my birthday…

we booked hotels and activities for the week following the cruise a while ago, to be sure we would get the things we wanted…

last week Cyndi and I talked about the excursions on the cruise and which ones we might like to take…

there are lots of options so she is doing more research and checking with Ron to see what is at the top of his list…

I don’t believe I’ve spoken to a single person who has taken an Alaskan cruise who didn’t love it… I am looking forward to spending time with the kids and seeing some wonderful scenery…

today I got to spend some time out on the deck in the sun… finally the temperature was warm enough… I have been sleeping in this lounger (n the house) for the past week in an attempt to help my back…

lounging on the deck…

it made me wonder if I would be sitting on the deck of the ship with a blanket on the cruise…
