Well, things are starting to come together.  In general here is our plan.
We will leave Grand Junction, CO by train and travel for 3 days (and nights, with sleeping accommodations) all the way to Fort Lauderdale, FL.  Then, after spending 2 days there we will board the Holland American ship Prinsendam and cruise to Amsterdam via Scandinavia and St. Petersburg  Russia.

After reaching Europe will will travel around for about 3 months.  We plan to mostly visit eastern Europe, since neither of us has been there before.  We don't have details yet.  (we still have a couple of weeks and we don't want to rush anything ;-)  )

While in Europe we are going to go on a cruise on the Danube.  Then at the end of our trip we will cruise home on a Princess ship via Greenland and Iceland.  I have always wanted to see those places.

When we arrive in New York we will spend some time there, then see the fall colors and then head homeward.

OK, so that is not very detailed, but neither are we.  We are loose and free.

So stay tuned for more info.  Trip starts the second week in May.
