Its a very peaceful way to travel<BR/><BR/>I put together a 'menu' of 'trips' for my parents and let them build a visit plan during the day or so when they were recovering from jet lag when we did local sunchine things.<BR/>The Mariners game was a real highlight for them!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18903763.post-1148673160270696092006-05-26T12:52:00.000-07:002006-05-26T12:52:00.000-07:00Not Sassy!
