Just notified of a cancellation by Holland America Line...

 

I was just notified that my January trip has been cancelled by HAL!  My trip for August 2022 (Boston to Greenland and Iceland) is still "on go" for now according to the agent for the cruise line.

Counting down the days until my next overseas trip to Asia...

I have everything ready for my next trip overseas.  It's in January (2022), and I'm so hopeful that the "variations" of COVID will soon disappear.  As I write this, the cruise line says it's only 136 days until the trip begins.

In 2018 I interrupted my Asian tour with a little time in a Chinese hospital and I missed this segment of Asia.   I was slated for this same trip when the COVID outbreak occurred in 2020.  I'm so glad I canceled as they closed the ports in Asia to Americans.

All of my flights are arranged, the excursions are scheduled, and I've been vaccinated (will soon get #3 of the vaccine).  Let's hope these countries will be receiving guests from the USA.  

I start the trip in Singapore and end twenty-eight days later in Tokyo.  🙏

Chapel of the Holy Cross

One of the beautiful places I visited was the Chapel of the Holy Cross.  Here's a video that provides drone footage of the chapel outside Sedona, Arizona.
