We were planning to drive down to Boston on Saturday for the first of our flights to Rio (Logan to JFK to Rio) but expecting a big snowstorm to hit northern Vermont Friday night through Saturday (of course)!
So, change of plans! Driving down tomorrow and will stay with one of the daughter's and hope they just get rain! Lots of intense packing today!!
A frigid day in northern Vermont. Stopped for lunch at the tiny (4 table), Maudite Poutine, on their last day of business as a sit down operation. Going back to their food cart roots. The classic poutine is SO good!
It must be helping or else they have upgraded their version of Windows. The last time I used the computers in In Touch (Quest June 22), it was abysmal.
I have noticed a “slight of hand” with other drinks in the supposed Ultimate package too. To whit, bottom shelf spirits to make a cosmopolitan when I could plainly see. I didn’t comment, but still…
And right after I posted my prediction, a friend posted a video of her tapped backyard maple dripping away! Still, colder weather is in the forecast and I am not regretting my March cruise!!
Even though we too are going through a warm spell, my best guess is that the season won’t begin until March. And alas, we won’t be home to tap our tree this year!
The difficulty is that when they bring you the slip to sign at the end of the meal in the specialty restaurants, there is a tip line, creating (at least for me) kind of an uncomfortable moment. It’s the same in the spa, even though they clearly already add a tip!
Thanks, Phil, that’s exactly what I planned to do, figuring that at least I could get some OBC for booking onboard (assuming I can make something work)! I have another cruise in October, so I’ll try it then 🤞
