NHProud

I would decline though I’d be missing out on a great meal and wonderful company.

I did see that after I posted and came back to delete but I was too late. Nice pic . Our deck faces west and we get some spectacular sunsets. Thanks for sharing.

I don’t know if this topic was discussed earlier while I was off cruising and honestly I did not read all that was posted while I was gone. It seems you lobster tail lovers will have to pay $16.99 + tip for every lobster tail if you consume more than one on Symphony on lobster night. It is an experiment RCI will be trying out along with a pared down menu with fewer selections. We ate at Hooked and tried the Taste of Royal on the Navigator and do recommend both.

I don’t have a very educated palate which doesn’t stop me from recommending the Thornton winery in Temecula. Their Café Champagne reminded of Provence especially if you sit facing the vineyards. Pechanga in Temecula is the largest California casino. Joshua Tree hiking is fun. The aerial tram in Palm Springs if you’re not afraid of heights. @Sea Dog You should travel to Scotland especially to the Isle of Skye to sample the scotch. And , the scenery isn’t bad , either.

@JimboJim , so sorry for your loss. Graycie was very lucky to have found your family.

We’ve been gone a week , also , and trying to catch up . Your Jeopardy comment made me stop reading . I’m a fan , also , and if you want to answer every final Jeopardy answer correctly , the day’s answer and recap of the show is on Jeopardyfan.com posted that day . My husband never caught on I was cheating. We went to the taping in Culver City while Trebek was the host. Well , to those of you who need the Internet on board we had satellite problems on the Navigator so no TV , ATM and internet for quite awhile. It didn’t bother me except on election night the TV kept freezing . That was extremely annoying. RC may have given us compensation , I opened the letter and read 15% refund applied to future cruise . It was only when I returned home did I notice someone else’s name on the heading . I hope , I get the same deal. I have not read past the above post so hoping this not insensitive to what is happening .

I felt the same way as you . The laser surgery was painless . All you see is what looks like sparks . The weeks of follow-up eye drops are a bit of a hassle .Now , I have macular degeneration and I wish there was an easy solution to that problem.

We used Allied for our last move 10 years ago. The only complaint we had with them is they showed up with only two men to unload a large moving van . It took five guys to load it . We insisted they call for more help which they did. To showcase your home’s beautiful landscaping and surrounding area you might ask the photographer to use a drone for an aerial shot . The realtor we used to sell one house provided a CD and a color brochure to list our house . That was left inside the house along with cookies and bottled water.

We’ve had a Samsung TV and a Samsung refrigerator for over a decade each with no problems with either one . Lucky us !

Nice photo ! You look fantastic in pastels . My SIL ate at Jean Georges and raved about it . Her sister dined at Tavern on the Green and she gave it a 👍. NYC is my favorite travel destination. I hope , you get to accomplish everything on your spreadsheet. No Broadway play ?

Our friend donated his body to our local medical school . UCSD took care of everything from the retrieval of his body from his home to the cremation and distribution of his ashes in the Pacific Ocean . There is an annual memorial service for the families. It was an altruistic gift . I would have to think really hard about doing this .

@grapau27 Happy birthday, Graham ! I hope , you have a wonderful day celebrating with Pauline . Wishing for you many more .

Congratulations, Jim ! I hope , your Phillies win the World Series . Good Luck !

Water is not a magical elixir that cures all , either . Just like everything else consumption has to be tailored to the person imbibing . I got into a discussion with the chief of urology at my hospital about the amount of fluids I should be drinking per day. He told me 4 glasses and I said 8 . He won by the mere fact he went to medical school . Anyway besides water there’s Gatorade , lemonade, fruit juice whatever besides alcohol and coffee. That’s my uneducated take on this.

I’m sure you have !

Greg and Linda , safe travels home . Great review as always ! Bad Padres game tonight. It was so disappointing after such a great start .

@Sea Dog Did you get a photo taken of you and Linda in your best attire to commemorate your 25th onboard ship ?

Your photos and videos are phenomenal. What an amazing vacation !

Prescient knowledge !

Back to reality, Greg , I hope you are not driving back to KC in one day . My husband scheduled his second knee replacement for late Nov which is six months after first knee replacement. He had a much easier time than you and his knee is clicking when he walks . He’s not saying if he is in any pain .

What a wonderful day you both had celebrating your special day .

Happy 25th Anniversary to you and Linda ! Great review and beautiful photos.

It is 89°F in San Diego and almost time for some baseball.

When is your 25 th anniversary ? I would use your inside cabin as one big closet . There’s a law of physics that states nature abhors a vacuum . That “closet” would not go to waste. There is never enough closet space.

@Luckynana So sorry your cruise ended so abruptly and painfully for your husband. I hope , he heals quickly. Yes , Canadians are very hospitable people . Good luck dealing with the insurance forms. My husband had an unpleasant surprise from a Dallas hospital after being treated there after an incident at DFW airport.
