I've been thinking about you since August 19. I am so disappointed that we didn't make this one !! We should be on the Voyager Arctic Circle TA from Copenhagen right now.... It was amazing and wonderful. We had perfect weather!! We miss the Channel Islands due to the scheduling of the Locks in Amsterdam. They have a low water issue right now and the ships have to be scheduled differently. We got back into Amsterdam at 6 pm the night before disembarkation, we got to explore Amsterdam that night too with no set time to be back. We went to Braveheart County and Stirling Castle in Edinburgh, Scotland; Dunrobin Castle in Iverness, Scotland (this was massive and beautiful and we also got to see a falconry demo there (which was a special treat), in Glasgow, Scotland we went to Glengoyne Distillery (bought some 18 year old whisky) and we went to the Greyabbey ruins. We did the scenic tour Belfast Northern Ireland and walked around Donaghadee Harbour, in Cork (Cobh) Ireland we a city tour and had an Irish Coffee tasting, in Dover England we toured Dover Castle (massive - I walked 29 flights of stairs! and we went to Canterbury Cathedral - huge and beautiful!!! and the port was in eye sight of the White Cliffs of Dover (amazing). In Liverpool we went to Chester Catherdral and walked all around Beatle country. You need to do this one!!!

Oh that is torture! We would have been at 79 points after our last cruise but we happen to book it when they were offering double points. We got 8 points for our 4 day Adventure cruise and 14 for our 7 day Oasis cruise. That put us over the top.
