Last week we took bus from San Antonio to Santiago. We bought tickets at terminal as wasn't sure what

time would disembark. Easy to use and buses weren't crowded.

I just booked Spain train tickets today. I had difficulty with the Renfe site. I used

http://www.captaintrain.com. It was easy to use and the prices were exactly the same. It was recommended in the Rick Steve's forum.

I am considering a November Rhine River Cruise. I know it will be cooler but will it be too cold? It will be our first River Cruise so any suggestions are appreciated.

We live in the Houston area and so have done several cruises out of Galveston. It has always been slow. They don't have enough staff at

this port. Three times I was told that immigration was checking all

cruise staff and passengers. The last time didn't used that excuse, but

still slow. I have cruised from other ports and never had a wait.
