A Prairie Home Companion Cruises

It seems in order to get a sense of where you’re headed, it’s good to take a look-see at where you’ve been. With that in mind, we’ve assembled for you a collection of our own fond memories of pretty good times. We invite you to visit these pages while you wait for the school bus or for the pie to finish baking or for the cows to come on home.

2014 Cruise We’ll sail on August 9th aboard the ms Ryndam from the white cliffs of Dover and head off to visit a string of fabulous northern cities, including Copenhagen, Stockholm, Helsinki, St. Petersburg, and Århus, taking along all the usual suspects and our naturalists and some excellent lecturers, as the watery world slips by and we take a two-week leave from our ordinary hectic lives. No texting. No email.

It’s a ten-day cruise aboard the ms Ryndam, and as always we will offer a fine cast of naturalists, historians, and musicians from A Prairie Home Companion.
