Carry On……

We are looking forward to a family adventure - our bunch is headed to Alaska for a one-week cruise. It should really be a lot of fun…..and give us some time to gather together. We don't get many chances to do that since we are spread from Washington State to Wisconsin and parents are working and grandkids are very busy with school and extra-curricular stuff. The four cousins range in age from ten to 17 and have a wide variety of interests, so we thought taking them on a big cruise ship would give everyone plenty of opportunity to find things to do that they like to do.

Of course the ship is really huge….so if kids or grandkids want to "get away" from the grandparents it won't be too difficult!

Anyway - we are packing and sorting and unpacking re-packing and figuring out what to bring. Dave and I each pack one small carry-on suitcase. And the restrictions keep making our suitcases "shrink" and then "shrink" again. But since we hate to check our luggage we've learned to travel really light. As Dave says…..he's the only one who knows I've worn the same t-shirt four times in one week. (Uh well….this trip a few more people might notice.)

Well I'll just put in an extra scarf - that's lightweight and helps me change-up my "look" for a day.

So we'll carry on…..and carry on!
