turns out Mickey has a boat

and later in the summer, courtesy of  a phenomenal military discount, we're gonna be on it, cruising the Baltic --Disney Style.   Ports of call include Copenhagen, Stockholm, Oslo, Talinn and St. Petersburg.  We've already booked excursions in St Petersburg, because without a Russian Visa (which we don't have the time to obtain) the only way to get off the boat is to go as part of an organized tour.  One evening I am leaving the boys on the boat and going to the ballet to see Swan Lake --in Russia. How cool is that?!?. 

When we were booking our Russian excursions, the reservations agent said to us: "Do think about going to Cinderella's Ball.  I know it's expensive and a lot of people think it's silly, but when else are you going to get to go to a ball in a castle?"

Um.... really?  been there, done that.  Maybe they should rewrite their talking points?
