We really hadn't planned to take another cruise this year since we we took the South America/Antarctica trip that lasted almost all of January. But late last year John's mother Beth mentioned she'd like to take a cruise. John gave a choice of New England in the fall or Alaska and since she's never been to Alaska the planning started. Of course we decided that my mother should come too. Because I'm low on vacation days we decided on Memorial Day week and there was a Sat to Sat cruise on the Westerdam that included Glacier Bay. Well I let John book the cruise so we ended up on the Oosterdam which is a Sun to Sun cruise and doesn't include either Glacier Bay or Hubbard Glacier. Oh well it's about spending time with our mothers and it makes getting there easier though getting home is a bit complicated.
So John flew to LA on Tue to spend a few days with his mother before the trip while I continued working. They'll fly to Seattle on Sat evening. I'll fly to Portland on Sat morning then rent a car and pick up my mother for the drive to Seattle. We'll check in again from the hotel before we board the Oosterdam on Sun.
