30th Anniversary: "We are sailing...!"

**Maya & Inka's mommy** · 08-04-2009, 02:42 PM

This month we will be celebrating our 30th anniversary (aug 18th)!!
We will have a family & friends-party in September!
But this coming saturday, aug 8th, we will be flying to Copenhagen to make a cruise!!!
The cruise is sailing from Copenhagen on tuesday 11th, so we will be spending nearly 3 days in that city!! And....... guess who we will meet there...............................
.................................
Our dearest RANDI !!!! And FISTER !!!!
I am so happy to finally meet her, she has been a dear friend on PT since many years!! Randi will guide us around and show us the places to see; and , she is inviting us to her flat for lunch and we will be able to meet dear Fister!! Woohoo!! I hope that our foreign voices will not scare the hell out of him........!! I will try to talk not to loud

; But yes, I know, I always talk to much

.... . I am bringing him a cat-tunnel, so maybe that will melt him down a bit

On tuesday we will board our ship in the afternoon; sailing is at 5 pm.
First day we will be on sea all day. Next morning we will arrive in Tallinn (Estonia).
Next morning we will be in St.Petersburg where we will stay for 2 days! I hope to see the "Hermitage" and some beautiful palaces!!
Our next town is Helsinki. What a shame that our Niina lives nearly 800 km north from Helsinki

; it would have been great to meet her again too!)
Then come these towns: Warnemünde (Berlin), Stockholm (Sweden), Arhus (Denmark), Oslo (Norway), and finally the cruise ends in Rotterdam (Netherlands). As Rotterdam is close to where we live, we will be taking a train home from there

What a dreamcruise hey!! It is only the second time that we will travel without the kids. They are 24 and 20 now. Indra is working to earn a bit of money, and Jo is working fulltime.

We are sooooo much looking forward to this!! I sure hope that the weather will be cooperating; and I also hope that my health will "behave"! We haven't been able to go travelling for several years now, due to back problems!

I will take lots of pics, and will post some later!!

Randi, see you on saturday!!!!

Lut, I'm so looking forward to see you and Bernard - I had no idea the trip is to celebrate your 30th Anniversary though. CONGRATULATIONS!!

Like I said, I'll come and pick you up at your hotel.

Tomorrow, I'll get to meet another cruiser - one I have not met before, either. It's a friend of Sara's.

So I'm off to bed now.

See you soon, Lut!
