Tomorrow, I am hoping to fly to Budapest to join my group of 22 travelers for a Christmas Time Cruise down the Danube. I say 'hopefully' because 8 of us have a tight connection in Chicago and the local forecast is 'snow. ' It seems as though weather has certainly been a deciding factor in my recent travels after a 3-day delay to Costa Rica due to Hurricane Ike.
In Budapest we will board the Amadeus Amalegro River Boat for a 7-night cruise on the Danube, Europe's second largest river. You can follow our voyage on the map as we cruise from Hungary through Austria, across the Continental Divide to Nuremberg, Germany. There we will disembark and travel by land to Prague for our last 2 days. Besides stops at charming towns along the way, we will view beautiful vistas in Bavaria and the Wachau Valley. In addition to daily sightseeing in local areas, I'm sure we will find time to visit the famous Christmas Markets and take advantage of the strengthening US dollar against the Euro.
Hopefully, my next blog will be from our ship when we board in Budapest.

Your blog looks beautiful and we can't wait to hear from you. We're praying and expecting smoooooth connections! K and K
Was hoping for a posting this morning, but guess you aren't on the boat yet. The brisket was a big success and it worked to cook it at the higher temp. Stephen's finger appears to be ok so guess we won't have to amputate :-) Have fun and can't wait for the first post!
