  1. A lot of condo associations here install heat pumps in their pools. Cools the water in the summer, warms in the winter.
  2. October is B4B , 4th week our free PIN cruise. Then next up B2B on Grandeur in Late Jan. We do have to wonder down to Mia occasionally, I am glad we use a car service to deal with the traffic.
  3. You had better believe I will. If all goes well, we have 4 cruises booked on Adventure starting Oct 7. Shooting for all treatments to be completed and no after effects to change plans. Should be a group of CCers' on the third cruise.
  4. There are soo many reasons to buy the package, none due to the sugar BS. It is not that we want lots of sodas, we get choices that only Freestyle offers. Before the shutdown, my first request was for caffeine free, and hope for the best. Worked maybe 80-90% of the time. I slept much better those trips. Post shutdown, I gave up and bought the cup. Later, did it on the planner.
  5. I want caffeine free diet Coke with my happy hour drinks. Only available in the free style Coke machines since the restart. I don't need all that caffeine. The alcohol is free. So I buy the mixer. Buy it on the pre cruise planner and get the discount.
  6. My throat cancer treatment is finally started, Just had my first chemo. Now waiting for the radiation treatments to get scheduled, This all started when I noticed a lump on the side of my neck on our last cruise on May 20. Went to PCP the next week, who scheduled a CT scan that led to the initial diagnosis. Situation became a series of requirements that had to be completed , one after the other. Each step was with a new doctor. Because the cancer is in my throat, The process included a dentist, an ENT (ear,nose,throat). oral surgeon, GI (gastro) . We are lucky, most are booked solid, but given the situation, they found quick appointments where there were none available when we first called.
  7. Before we got transferred to Ct in 1999, we lived in a more rural area here in Palm Beach County, and there was a vet who mostly treated horses, who would come around with his truck and take care of our dogs and cats. He wasn't expensive at all , especially compared to the fancy vet with her fancy clinic, who found ways to part her patients from their money.
  8. I'll add a couple of notes to your comments. The hand washing facilities are only in place for the buffet since that is the only venue where you serve yourself. The suite breakfast is also a Pinnacle benefit, which I also really enjoy. It is so much nicer than dealing with Windjammer. The only exception is on Oasis class. I still like JR breakfast there. I tried the Chops breakfast there, but enjoyed JR more.
  9. Plus,, as a diamond member, you get a discount on cabins, balcony and up, and a discount on internet when booked onboard.
  10. That would suggest she is going back to Bayonne. Still has the dry dock requirement. Any facilities on the west coast available?
  11. Quantum is due for a 10 year drydock in 2024. Never seen a repo cruise canceled other than that.
  12. Chris Wong recently posted a Youtube video of a performance on Symphony that he said beforehand that is was a non monetized video to get by the copyright issue.
  13. My favorite Pin benefit, breakfast in specialty dining. No more trudging around WJ finding my food , then finding a table. Just walk in, food is delivered. Nice and relaxed. No mob. On Oasis class, JR is my goto for breakfast, didn't care for Chops as much.
  14. I haven't actually started radiation yet. Since the treatment is close to the jaw, i need dental clearance to begin, hopefully next week. 80 year old teeth is an issue.
  15. AMS is the hub for KLM, We have flown into AMS from the States and connected to the smaller plane to get to BCN.
  16. The business cards we have gotten has , I believe , a generic number, like 3700. That I assume would be a general housekeeping number, not a direct line to the actual person. And I have had many occasions where nobody answers.
  17. You might also give JR a try for breakfast. No charge for breakfast.
  18. If that cruise added the next cruise to Australia for a B3B, then that would be legal?
