At Sea
The About Cruises Guide and the About Fishing Guide Cruise Scandinavia and Northern Europe

The R6 was at sea today, cruising between Amsterdam and Oslo, Norway. This was a restful day after 5 days of sightseeing and cruising. Thirty years ago today Ronnie, the About Fishing Guide, and I were married by a justice of the peace in Douglas, Georgia. Sometimes I feel like I've been married my entire life, but I can still remember the day we were wed like it was yesterday! (Of course, after traveling for 5 days, I might not be able to remember what happened yesterday, but that's another story!)

If you would like to follow the Garrisons on our 30th wedding anniversary cruise, check out the table below for links to each day's itinerary. You can also follow my postings to the About Cruises Forum. Click here for link to the About Cruises Forum postcards from the R6. Here are some links to the pictures I made and detailed articles from each port of call.
