Hi Everyone,
   Update: Our flight leaves from Minneapolis  # 612 for Chicago Ohare at 1:05 PM,arriving in Chicago at 2:31 PM.
               Our flight # 265 leaves Chicago for Amsterdam at 4:10 PM, arriving in Amsterdam at 6:55 AM Sunday, April 14.
              We will pick up our luggage ,meet at the coach pick up site,call the bus company when we are all gathered with our luggage. Please read the communication that was sent about the bus company and our pick up requirements. We will go to the hotel. It is early so some rooms will be ready, some will not. The ones that are not the hotel will keep them safe while we walk a short distance to the boat dock where we will take a river cruise.
             If you have motion sickness, but a SEABAND , or ask your doctor for a prescription or find something over the counter. It is a river cruise, there will not be high waves.
             After the cruise ,2 or 3 hours, we will go back to the hotel, check in. The remaining of the day is free time for you.
             Please read through the pamphlet that was sent to you for the daily schedule. The bus company will tell us when we must be on board, any wait time we all must pay additional, so we will not wait...please be early.
             You are not obligated to attend any classes or tours. You have paid for them, no refunds. If you rather take a tour or stay in the room or anything please let me know. This is your trip,I want you to have the time of your life. The schedule is set for anyone that wants to join in.
            I mentioned before, this is not a fashion time, for me. I will be wearing the same clothes many times,clean undies...Bring what you can carry/drag up a hill for 20 minutes. We are not going up any hills, it is an example travel companies suggest.
