Karl and Angela Rees

As many of you know, we spent last week on an Alaskan Cruise with Karl’s parents.  Accordingly, Angela spent the week before last making all sorts of preparations for the trip, while Karl worked long hours getting all an application done in time for the trip.   We had the missionaries over for dinner, and we also put in an offer on a house, but it looks like the offer wasn’t accepted, so we won’t bore you with those details.  read more »

We took a cruise to Alaska with Thomas and Karl's parents onboard Holland America's ms Amsterdam from Sept. 12 to Sept. 19, 2008. We departed from Alaska, and stopped in Juneau, Glacier Bay, Sitka, Ketchikan, and Victoria. We enjoyed such activities as whale watching, glacier cruising, kayaking, celebrating Angela's, eagle and bear spotting, showering in the rain, and chasing Thomas all around the ship while listening to everyone comment on how cute he is. Then, we hung out in Seattle with Karl's sister Susan for a day.

These are pictures from our cruise. It was lots of fun. We provide a recap here.
