Last week, Lance and I headed up to spend a couple of days with Lance's dad and his wife. It was the first time I had seen their new house since they completed it a couple of years ago. We had a lot of fun! We had some really yummy meals, went swimming and they took us up to Mt. Lassen. Aside from me getting extremely car sick on the way up, and even more so on the way down, it was really lovely. It was a really beautiful day and the temperature was perfect! It was really nice getting to spend a couple of days with them since we don't get to see them very often.
We're leaving for our cruise very early on Monday morning. I'm so excited! I went to the doctor a couple of weeks ago and he gave me a patch to wear while I'm on the boat so I don't get sea sick. I'm crossing my fingers that they work! I'm also going to be bringing some ginger related items with me, as it worked for me the last time I got sick on a boat. We're bringing ginger snaps, ginger pills and dried ginger. I also plan on drinking quite a bit of ginger ale while on ship. Hopefully it will work.
Here are a couple of pictures from our trip up to Lassen. Enjoy!
Manzanita Lake

There was snow on the mountain...in August!
Emerald Lake. I hiked around this in slip-on flat shoes...not a good idea!
There were butterflies everywhere!
A geyser...it was pretty stinky!

Fantastic photos! That lake is so serene looking. I hope you guys have fun on your cruise and that you don't get sick!
Thank you!
Wish me luck...=)
We have found a prodcut called "Sea-Bands" to be very effective for motion sickness. They can be a little hard to find - but we got them in a local, non-chain pharmecy. They use acu-pressure on the wrists.
Have a great trip,
Patti
Thanks Patti!
