It was a long flight, starting with a flight cancellation in Amsterdam (would we be in time for our cruise?), but we finally reached our San Diego Hotel late Thursday night.

Thanks to Mr. Jose Briseno of Holiday Inn On the Bay for providing us with a room on the 17th floor, giving us a marvelous view of Zaandam docked at the cruise terminal.

What is better to start your day? Open the curtains and see that Zaandam has arrived and is docked at san Diego cruise terminal!
