Heidi13 Posted August 29, 2019 #26 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Unfortunately, we already have 2021 planned. Winter in Indio, CA then 8 - 10 weeks in Maui. We also must be in BC for at least 5 months per year to maintain our medical coverage, so doesn't leave any time for a cruise. 😢 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom.in.nc Posted August 30, 2019 #27 Share Posted August 30, 2019 Hi, Clay. I see we all made it back fro Barcelona after out fine TA crossing. We are considering the Viking Hong Kong to Alaska for 2021. We, like Jim and several others, are closing the loop after the Inaugural WC. Flying AA from RDU at 1800 today. Any else here on that flight? We will try to post some interesting pictures as we head towards LA. Tom and Sylvia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Avery Posted August 30, 2019 Author #28 Share Posted August 30, 2019 Hi Tom, looking forward to seeing you and Sylvia on our "Waterfront Home" the Viking Sun. Also counting on your input here as you are very good with your travel tales. Maybe you can be the official photographer?🍸 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are considering the Viking Hong Kong to Alaska for 2021. Tom and Sylvia Yes we made it back to RDU about 10 days after disembarking and spending time there and in Rome. We have spent the time sense on a long slow road trip-only took 81 days from Danville, Va to get to the Pacific! We leave Vancouver next Friday on X headed for Tokyo. After a few days there we will fly to China and eventually board Orion in Oct 4th headed to Hong Kong (at least that’s where we are scheduled to disembark 🤞 This will be our first Viking trip with more than one or two ports so hoping we hate it as we can’t afford them on a regular basis! 😂 if you want to see our opinion about Viking in Asia, feel free to follow the link in my signature to the blog. Have a GREAT cruise, I am so envious! Edited August 30, 2019 by Clay Clayton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2oldishcoots Posted August 31, 2019 #38 Share Posted August 31, 2019 We are joining in LA. So glad you’ve taken this on, Jim. Looking forward to following along. We did b2b Amsterdam to London, via Norway, with Vicki as our cruise director. She was wonderful, I’m sure you will enjoy her humour as much as we did.
