Welcome Pam, belatedly, to LCT! Have you posted reviews about Wine? (Maybe I missed it). I'm doing the reverse trip next year (WAVE), and am wondering about favourite excursions. The ports aren't identical, but similar. Did you do the trip to Santiago de Compostela?
Karen, retire? Leave the frozen north? You're too young! You're one of my only allies up here in the near-Arctic!
