Scandanavia

In the summer of 2003, Bev asked her daughter, Kate, to go with her on a cruise of the Baltic Sea.

The cruise lasted three weeks and docked in seven different countries: Denmark, Finland, Sweden, Norway, Russia, Estonia, and Germany.

After the cruise, they spent a few days in London and saw The Lion King.

 

Weakened by chemo, Bev knew she would have trouble walking far. So she bought a fold-up scooter that she could drive not only through the narrow corridors of the ship, but all over the port towns as well.

The only hitch was when the battery ran out in Copenhagen, and Kate had to push Bev on the scooter for a mile over cobblestones back to the ship.
