I'm on the fence about going...much as this would combine my two biggest interests in the world, lighthouses and passenger ships, I already have plans in the works for a two-week backpacking trip to Europe, returning on the Queen Mary 2. So both vacation time and ship dollars are being used up quickly for 2011. And the QM2 trip takes precedence in this case for various reasons.

I'll be making my final decision when the list of possible lights comes out, and I can weigh the costs and benefits. Especially as I'll want to spend time in the Pacific Northwest before/after, which is more time/money. (However, if there were organised lighthousing things going on in Washington State pre/post-cruise, I'd be interested in doing just those if possible, which would be less of a time/money commitment.)

Too many trips, too little time!
