FLIGHT FROM ATLANTA TO AMSTERDAM
We flew Delta "Business Class" overnight from Atlanta to Amsterdam on our way to our 50th anniversary Baltic Cruise. It was a special treat to have a personal entertainment system and a seat that converted to a lay-flat bed. As you can see, Vi, our daughter Rena, and son-in-law David had a complete row to ourselves.
I've flown First Class a few times, and enjoyed the extra legroom, better meal, and free alcoholic drink, but, at least in the olden days when many flights were only 3/4 full, I used to prefer to get three seats in a row so I could lift the seat separators and lay down flat. However, I must admit, this semi-private arrangement is pretty neat.

COOL ON-BOARD POOL
We were too busy or it was cool for swimming for most of the Baltic cruise. However, Alexia, Samantha and Ira were able to use the spectacular pool on our day at sea.
INSETS: After too many museum tours, Ira has "the agony of the feet" (photo by Samantha, based on her idea :^) A nice young man from Mexico caught the three of us simultaneously underwater.
