Day 15 and Maybe 16
July 6th, 2010
Steve It is amazing, no matter where you are and what you are doing – stuff has to come to an end. Well, this trip is really close to finishing up. We packed up our clothes (laundry now) and out gifts for families and friends. Each item we packed, brought back some memories of our time [...]

Day 11 – Tallinn, Estonia
July 3rd, 2010

Day 4 – At Sea (Days 6, 12, 14 – same)
June 28th, 2010
Steve With Day 3 being extremely long, having the first day at sea is just what the doctor would order, rest and relaxation. It was a lazy day. On this trip, we were blessed with 4 at sea days. Many would argue that four days is too much. For me, I wanted to get to rest [...]
