Suitcases packed, open on the floor, still thinking about the contents, adding and subtracting. On Friday, May 21, we leave for Denmark: San Francisco - Chicago, Chicago - London, London - Copenhagen. Already three changes to the itinerary, mostly flight times, one flight change because of strike activity by British Airways. If the winds blow in the right direction putting volcanic ash from Iceland out of our airspace, we'll arrive in Copenhagen around 7 PM on Saturday. We spend a week in Copenhagen with the Kohuts, then fly into Vilnius, Lithuania, where we join an Exploritas tour (formerly Elderhostel) taking us through the Baltics and then St. Petersburg and Moscow by bus and train. From Moscow we fly back to Copenhagen for a couple days, then home on June 16. Extended forecast looks like we're in for lots of rain and we are prepared for everything weather-wise, barring sub-zero temperatures. We're excited about the visit with our nephew's family in Copenhagen, curious about the Baltic States, and wondering what we'll find in Russia!
