Sus, the video was amazing, how wonderul for you to see the tulips, it is beautiul. The museum with all Rembrandts is amazing if you have time.
Keep is posted and make sure to eat a wonderful Dutch full breakfast. You wont need to eat for the rest of the day and try the Hodge Podge:):):):)
Hey Susan, welcome to my country :D And yes, it's a bit on the cold side today, sorry ;) Hope you will enjoy the short stay here and have lots of fun during the cruise. Better leave quickly, it's going to get below zero here tonight :p

Woweeee your off on the high seas!! Wish I could have seen the tulips, one of my most favourite flower. I have a whole lot of bulbs in the fridge as Mum said it is best to cool them before planting but they have been in there about 3 weeks already so best I get them in!!
I hope you are having a fantastic time and can't wait for the trip report!! Ohhh girls I bet there are plenty of nice girly drink cocktails on a cruise liner, we will have to get Sus to taste them all and let us know of any worth replicating to add to the bellini!! Have fun and hope you are back to feeling 100% x
Hi gals! Well it's now Saturday. It's still wintery cold. My illness is into day #16. I think I'll go for some kind of record. With the wind and the cold, I just can't seem to shake this, although it is much better.
Tomorrow is the big day for the tulips. It's the day we go to the Keukendorf. So far it has been a lot of walking very fast with little time to snap pictures. Today we are in Ghent and our guide was the absolute best and we learned a lot and got a ton of pictures. The buildings are magnificent. There has been zero time to shop. We've seen some incredible art work. Also some really cute little doggies. Pray for the rain to hold off tomorrow!
Hugs,
Sus
Im sorry you are still sick but glad you are having a great time.
Lots of pixes if they ever allow you to stop. I'll go look up Ghent so I can see where you are:)
Oh wow, I hope you get plenty of time to really enjoy the areas you are seeing. It sounds lovely to see all the tulips. Must be a wonder to behold. I really hoped you'd have kicked this virus thing by now. :( Hope each day is a bit better.
hugs

Well....it's the last night. Today was tulip day. 70 acres of tulips, hyacinths, azaleas, etc. Mind blowing. It has been a very hard trip. The pace was way too ambitious for lots of us. I did not have a chance to buy one souvenir. Some cities-like Ghent-there was not even time to snap pictures. Very disappointing. Ship is great, food is superb, people are very nice, tour planning needs to be rethought.
Tomorrow is several hours getting to and on the plane, then a 9 hour flight, then a 3 hour drive home....and I won't get to see Bailey until Wednesday. :(:(
Hope you gals are all well, as are the pooches.
Hugs,
Sus
Wow those tulips fields sound divine, that sucks no pics or souvenirs! Still with you being sick it sounds like resting, eating and happy people would have been good for you! Look forward to getting home and the reunite with Bailey, hope he doesn't nip your nose like Flynn does if I have left him for too long! xx
Did you at least have a nice cabin? It is hard to do traveling when you dont feel well. I looked at pictures of Ghent, it was beautiful. I rather pictured you buying Belgin chocolates.:):) How can it be time to come home alreay? Wow, time goes fast.
Fell better Sus.
