I wanted to post a final entry on the Bermuda trip.
Pre planning Costs: Flights: $20 Used United Airlines frequent flyer miles
Hotel: $75 at Newark airport (typical rooms are $250)
Cruise: $500, amount saved by trading a Timeshare week
Trip: Took a voluntary bump from Colorado Springs and got $800 in free United Airlines Tickets.
Had perfect weather the entire cruise. It was about 72 degrees and sunny.
Had a motor scooter accident and got a sprained ankle.
The sprain force me to relax for the remainder of the cruise which pleased Jan immensely.
Because of my bad knee, I had packed a cane and lots of Percocet, which made the remainder of the trip much better.
Post Trip: Used the $800 in United Airlines Coupons to buy ticket so Spokane for Christmas. Total cost $800.60. Not bad!
The following week’s cruise had some bad weather and very rough seas. On the trip to Bermuda the open decks were closed because it was too dangerous. We sure lucked out!!
I had my arthroscopic knee surgery and I am walking pretty good. My sprained ankle is healing slowly.
So I guess Life is Good!!

Loved reading your report, sounds like a great trip, which is nothing new for you two! How's the knee doing, and the ankle, all good I hope. I need good priced ticket to Seattle/return Aug. 5 and Aug 14, any suggesting. I'm been looking everywhere I know of, but price is high, over $300. Jeez, don't any cheap airlines go to Seattle? If you have any ideas, please let me know. Thinking of you. All the best. D
