Hello from the Ruby Princess in the morning and not the Ruby Princess in the evening. The embarkation schedule was ahead of schedule so I went straight from my cabin up to deck 16 to take my pictures and then straight to deck 7 to disembark.

| It was such a gorgeous morning in San Francisco I just didn’t want to leave. |
I took the Princess shuttle to the airport (less hassle than having to convince a taxi driver to take the scooter) and was at the airport in good time. A sleepy Sunday morning in San Francisco made for light traffic but the airport was a zoo.
My flight wasn’t until early afternoon so I stopped by a restaurant in terminal 2 for a breakfast burrito. Eggs and bacon and potatoes and refried beans and salsa. It was delicious (and huge) so I took the leftovers with me.

| Yummy |
By early afternoon when my plane should have left the gate things were looking like this.
 |
| Still no plane |
 |
| Still snow in the mountains |

| Lucky Peak State Park outside Boise |
And thankfully my daughter and son-in-law picked me up from the airport and took me out for an early Mother’s Day dinner. This restaurant had us cooking our own food at the table.

| Too much food |
Now it’s back to work for a few weeks creating sewing patterns for DebsDaysDesigns before Alaska calls. That’s where I’ll be celebrating one of those big birthdays ending in 0. I won’t blog during those cruises as they won’t be solo trips but if I get to go it alone again, I will.
Thanks for joining me for this adventure, and happy sailing - and sewing!
