Cruisin'









We're back. Mark and I went on a mini vacation. We jumped on a plane on Saturday morning (early, too early, way too early) and flew up to Vancouver. In Vancouver we boarded the Holland America Statendam. Saturday morning, we woke up in beautiful Victoria, BC, where we hiked about and found 9 geocaches. Geocaching is a GREAT way to see things, and notice things that you never would have except for this hobby. We then re-boarded the ship and spent a long day at sea, ending our journey in San Francisco this morning. We had a GREAT time. We relaxed and slept and napped. We took in a few shows, we played basketball, we watched movies, and we met a lot of really nice people.

It was great to see the kids today and we owe a huge thanks to Gramma for watching them while we got away.
