Decisions made. Should have a flyer out next week. Ken and I will be escorting both trips,

Going to Europe for just 7 nights is too short and I think combining the Tulip Cruise and the Danube may be a good idea. Of course you can book one or the other or both..

Tulip Cruise - April 12 - 19, 2021 - round trip Amsterdam - Crystal Debussy
Danube Cruise April 23 - 30, 2021- Vienna to Budapest -Crystal Mozart " A double wide river boat"

There are four nights in-between the two cruises. Crystal often has pre and post options so I looked to see what was offered from Vienna in 2019 - they go to Slovenia.

Or just spending that time in Vienna may be very nice I have only spend a few hours in Vienna before it is a beautiful city.

I will need to name these cruises I already have enough people to move forward already from the post and word of mouth.

One pin to cover both cruises would be best. After this holiday weekend I will ask Karen to start a contest.

We are on for the second leg only; we have already spent a lot of time in Belgium and Netherlands. Tulips are absolutely fantastic; make sure you spend a day in Keukenhof. We will be looking at adding a land extension to northern Hungary (where my family is from) and, possibly, Romania.

Marc and Arlene - I have also booked the second leg only. Will hopefully be adding on a land extension to the Czech Republic - the land of my heritage. Been trying to get to Prague for years.

We too are booked on the 2nd leg Vienna to Budapest. We've never been to Budapest and only been to Vienna once about 20 years ago. We'll definitely do a pre/post somewhere.

For now, I’m booked on both legs! Times I’ve been in Amsterdam were not at tulip time! Anyone else on both legs?

Olivia, I'm sure you'll have LOTS of company as Ngaire mentioned that between both legs, she has close to 50 people booked.

Helen, I’m excited as well to finally meet you! I think I saw you years ago through the window on the airport somewhere in South America as you got off the ship and we were getting on? Haha, with a sign, I loved it!

Hah ! Was that you, Olivia? Actually I had a sign at the airport in Ushuaia. You guys were on the following Antarctica cruise. That was a great day since in the ensuing (many) years I have met lots of people who say they saw me and my sign that day! Too fun!

George and I are on the first leg. We have done Danube twice, so no need to do that again, but are really excited for tulips.

Now it looks like we're going to go on both the 1st and 2nd leg. We'll likely spend 4 days in Prague in-between the two cruises (or hang out somewhere loopy)
