That was where I started as a young one. The first summer I could walk, age 2, my family got to top of the beach and I ran right into the ocean. My parents knew from that moment that I was beach baby. I would play in the ocean for hours😃 definitely is my happy place.

Yes, I was afraid to use nail polish remover in fear it would discolor the brick. I'm thinking I'll try a small spot with white vinegar and if that doesn't work then this week I will call the woman who's company installed the patio. She just did a bunch of hard scaping and landscaping for my neighbor I referred to her.

Perfect. I love a nice dry Riesling😃

I ironed my patio this morning😁 it's looking much better but still have oil residue that soaked into brick. Will let try wire brush and white vinegar later today

I just finished mowing the back and sides. Off to shower, come on over😃

I have a big pot of meatballs, hot and sweet sausage simmering on the stove. Sauce mixture of homegrown Amish paste tomatoes and 2 cans crushed tomatoes. Cut up some homegrown peppers, eggplant and zucchini and put in the sauce too! Off to mow the lawn while that simmers.

Same here. Our last b2b they didn't charge or apply against our vouchers. Same for small hut bar near snack shack. They were extremely busy each time and didn't seem to care.

Maybe they didn't realize they were wedding crashers??? I posted before reading all the other posts. Maybe they just "assumed" it was a wedding open for anyone to join the party?

That's all free for anyone. Special handshake gets you something else😁😇

@Luckynana And laundry bag for $25. Which may be needed for your b2b.

They were better many years ago when each store made fresh donuts every day. Now their donuts are shipped in from whatever plant makes them.

They are beautiful. I have never seen decorated donuts like these. So fun😃

My elementary school had swimming lessons as part of gym class. They had different groupings. Everyone started out as a tadpole and had to use kick boards, this was before kids had floaties for their arms. I forget all the different names for the stages but you weren't allowed into the deep end until you were a shark. By 5th grade I was shark. In Jr High we used to play pool volleyball and do other lessons to learn backstroke, sidestoke, etc. and had swim meats with roped lanes and occasional water aerobics. That pool had a large platform diving board we could use during free swim time. Then high school we had various water sports and swim meats as part of gym class. That pool had 3 different levels of platform diving boards. The high board could only be used by strong swimmers and No goofing around was allowed. I loved diving off the high board. I learned how to do flips and different types of dives. The worst part was the girls never had enough time to shower and do hair and makeup. You know teenage girl stuff. 😁 I remember a lot of times having wet hair that would freeze when I went outside.

Many years ago I was comped a free facial by casino based on our play but have not seen or heard of this being done in a very long time. Stinks the Asst. Host misinformed you. You are now prime up thru March 31st 2024 and hopefully will receive many offers for free or discounted cruises. Along with free drinks and 30% off internet. Check regularly Clubroyaleoffers.com for your offers. We receive new offers almost weekly.

That's ridiculous, you could have opted for online proctor and pd $80 for 4 people.

Yes, you can. My DH is and I always request a table for two. You can so this by phone when booking your reservation, direct with Royal or when within couple weeks of your cruise you can email rcldining@rccl.com and list your booking # and your dining request. Or do onboard first day by visiting the host at MDR after boarding.

Yup, that used to happen to me and my Brother all the time, both blondies. We had green hair on a regular basis from swimming in the pools at our elementary, jr high and high school had as part of gym class.

Excellent review with great photos. Thank you for sharing🤩 Happy to hear your fall didn't impact the rest of your trip.

You board Friday so you can do the test as early as Wednesday. You could do it at 12:01 am as long as it shows the date for Wednesday or after

You can get continental breakfast for free with room service. The only place I have seen to go coffee cups with lids is the lounges or Starbucks on some ships. If diamond you can get nice selection from diamond lounge plus nice free coffee options, lattes, capuccino, etc. They usually open at 7 am.

Your stuffed peppers sound delicious. That is funny thar a college kids chased you off from climbing fence🤣 That is a gorgeous waterfall

When I make stuffed peppers I brown the meat with some chopped onion then simmer in tomato sauce (homemade if I have) with some rice for about 20 minutes. Then I stuff the peppers and fill up the rest of the pan with the meat sauce and sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese on top. Did you stuff your peppers with raw or cooked meat?

Pretty sure you can the standard free coffee at Latitudes. I always get lattes but they cost extra. All the snacks, deserts, Danish, mini sandwiches in their glass case are free.

Yes, I just pressured washed the patio beginning of June. I think I'll try the iron first-line it is oily and then bring out pressure washer, maybe attach the surface cleaner

Your CA GS seems much more at ease in and near the water this summer. Looks like lots of fun😃 I would love a ride on inner tube on a warm summer day.
