debbers5 Posted August 6, 2009 #3 Share Posted August 6, 2009 I'm sailing on the 15th aboard the Amsterdam out of Seattle on a 7 day Alaskan cruise. We're leaving home next Wednesday and flying from London to Seattle where we'll spend a few days both before and after the cruise. We have never been to Seattle or Alaska so I'm looking forward to discovering lots of new things. Enjoy your cruises, eveyone! Debbie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ESummerson Posted August 6, 2009 #6 Share Posted August 6, 2009 Hi! I sail on the Rotterdam on Tuesday from Copenhagen. First however, I have to fly from Denver to Boston to meet up with my mother who will be my traveling companion on the Scandinavia and Russia 12 day cruise. My mother is treating me to a total of an 18 day teenager-free vacation. (Free from my teenagers, that is. I have no problem with other teenagers since I don't have to live with them!) My head is spinning right now with all the details, especially all the different currencies I will need - 8 countries, 6 currencies. I can't wait to get on the ship and finally relax. I've also been following the weather forecasts for Copenhagen, Tallinn, and St. Petersburg. It looks like we are going to be in for some cool rainy weather, so I have to rethink what I'm going to pack. I have learned so much from reading these boards. (Thanks, especially to Big Wally who took the same trip in reverse earlier this summer.) I can't wait! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm getting so excited, the time will fly by. Happy sailing Avril.[/quote']Me too! 8/15 on the Zuiderdam! I am getting very exciting. Last night I was trying to decide what to take for clothing. Layers - tanks, long-sleeved t's and shirts - are not typical for Florida so it's been a challenge! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sanbelle Posted August 6, 2009 #9 Share Posted August 6, 2009 ESummerson, I will be on this cruise also leaving from Boston on Sunday Aug. 9th. 3 days to go. I too have been reading these boards and have gathered so much valuable information my head is also spinning. Are you flying NW? Maybe we are on the same plane.

Sanbelle Yes, we are flying NW first to Amsterdam, then on to Copenhagen. BTW, I checked the weather this morning, and the forecast looks much better for Copenhagen and Tallinn. Actually, it looks like we will have perfect sightseeing weather in Copenhagen. Mostly sunny and 70 degrees. Sounds like perfect weather for a canal cruise!

lrunion Posted August 7, 2009 #12 Share Posted August 7, 2009 I am playing but not by the rules. We leave from Seattle on my first Alaska cruise on the 20th, so technically it is not within 10 days, but time flies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
