What a great game! I too am happily surprised!! Now I don’t want them to sack Ten Hag!!

Made it on the Explorer after a not organized bus ride from Venice to Ravenna. Got to the bus station at 10:30 am for 11am departure. Long line to board buses, threatening storm coming and we were out in the open. So, they did move us into a covered area. Don’t get in bus till 12:30 and arrived at port at 2:30. Getting on ship was smooth though!

We are staying in the San Polo section. It has been very convenient to everything. Today we did the Doges Palace and St. Marks Basilica. Then up the clock tower. A little lunch and walked over the Grand Canal to the neighborhood that the Peggy Guggenheim and Dorso Duro district. It has been a great day. Pictures are not uploading very well.

Hello from Venice! We are starting our 3rd day here. Our flight from JFK went off very well and we have had a little rain but still have done all we have planned. Yesterday was an excursion to Murano and Burano. Today DH and I are doing the Doges Palace tour. Tomorrow we meet Explorer of the seas in Ravenna! Here are some pictures.

Good evening all. Just wanted to hop on to let you know that we are cleared for take off in the morning! DH's procedure today (lithotripsy) to blast his kidney stone was a success! Phew! First flight is Detroit to JFK departure time 10:07am so our pickup to airport is at 7am. We have a bit of a layover at JFK as flight to Venice departs at 6pm so we will be enjoying the Delta Lounge. I will check in here from time to time to provide updates and pictures! Ciao!

We leave on Tuesday the 21st and Dave is having his kidney stone blasted tomorrow 😃. We are all packed up! I told him I am leaving with or without you 🤣.

@Luckynana Maryann we had a foggy morning today in Michigan but once it burned off around 11am it turned into a beautiful day so I am hopeful this will come to you tomorrow!!!

OMG this is too funny!!!🤣 A perfect day for you my friend!!🎂

Oh Dani I am so happy you were able fulfill your mom's wish! So sad the cemeteries are not kept up 😞.

So sorry 😪

Thank you all for your lovely comments. Dave went to work today so hopefully he is feeling okay and we can get this stone crushed on Monday! @dani negreanu I will try to do a semi-live report on your thread if that is okay?

Thank you for the birthday wishes! I wish I could say it was the best day ever, but I actually spent all morning at the hospital with my DH, Dave, who had a second kidney stone episode yesterday. So most of yesterday was in the ER, he spent the night at the hospital and this morning had another stent put in. The first round came last December. This stone is bigger and since we are scheduled to depart for Italy and our cruise on Explorer a week from today he is having lithotripsy performed on Monday the 20th. Not exactly the best birthday but that is okay as long as we make our trip. Anyway he is comfortable now and we did go to a Sushi restaurant in Detroit tonight for dinner so it wasn't all bad! 😁

My Lego loving son will love the Legos in Japan! The fields of tulips were sensational. What a fabulous trip you and Marty had. I can't wait for you next one 😉!

It is a little bigger than a cell phone and has an open pouch on the top and a zippered pouch on the side. 😁

I love them all Renee. I got one on my cruise on Adventure last March with Deb and Andy. It is the crossbody with the anchor!

Have the best time on Beyond and have a snowflake martini for @Luckynana and me!!

Happy Mother's Day to all! We have a sunny blue sky day here in SE Michigan and my tee time is at 1pm! @bobmacliberty I did buy myself a new putter for Mother's Day! 😁

I will be praying 🙏! Totally agree! Thanks for sharing it April! I am sure you were quite surprised by that! The match day experience is awesome!

So glad you are a ManU fan! I didn't want to not like you 🤣. Our DS got us hooked on them from here in the US. We have seen them play 3 times here in the US and in 2019 went to Old Trafford for last game of the season. It has been a rough season to be sure. 😪

I would say yes it has since 1975! Good luck with everything 🤞!

I agree 100%! Love Horseshoe Bay Beach and all of Bermuda.

Oh Helen I am so sorry to hear about your accident. I am thankful it was not worse, though. I also think your DH should leave you at the terminal and get your car to pick you up. Good luck with everything and let us know how it all goes on Dani's thread. Celebrity Beyond is a wonderful ship!

Oh no!! Poor Helen 😪

Sure is beautiful!!
