@kazu so good you found the foot nurse - I hope her recommendations help.🙏

Yay - a teammate!!

I seldom eat lunch, but will happily celebrate it; I didn't know about Borinqueneers Day - definitely worthy of recognition; have never played Scrabble - am I the only one?🤷‍♀️ Pass on the meal, drink & wine sound good although the wine is pricey, most recent stop in Oranjestad was Feb 2023 but no pictures to post as they're on my computer. I have a bracelet I bought there that I wear everyday. Thanks for the pictures @StLouisCruisers Hugs and condolences @puppycanducruise @Cruzin Terri and @atexsix Hugs and prayers @smitty34877 as your family cares for Tana. There was a shooting at a local high school (Wilmer-Hutchins) yesterday; thank goodness nobody was killed. The person shot is recovering in the hospital. Lord keep our children and educators safe 🙏 Welcome @LambKnuckles and @ORTravelGal👋 @Denise T and I must be on the same wavelength this morning 🤭 using the same Bon Voyage for @AncientWanderer Today is finish the taxes, start a very long survey book I agreed to do, and wait for the yard guy - don't know if he'll be here today or tomorrow, but he's in for a tough job as backyard still has standing water. I will give him a nice tip if he is able to do it all. Also going to read up on the eye procedure that's being done Mon; I think it's just an injection w/the more complicated one starting next week. Currently 59° headed to windy 82°. Prayers 🙏 and positive thoughts for all.

Bon Voyage @AncientWanderer

Condolences, hugs and prayers for you during this difficult time. I hope you do cruise again and think of your dad when you do.

The pictures of the Papantla flyers were awesome! We saw those recently in an episode of "The Amazing Race" and were in awe. And now I'm seeing them here in greater detail 😊

Yes, thanks for clarifying - what I remembered you saying is in your last sentence. As always, appreciate you weighing in 👏

Hi and welcome! How I wish HAL would cruise out of Galveston, but sadly we must go west or east. 🥺 I hope you find a HAL itinerary that appeals to you; they're not perfect, but we enjoy them very much.⛴️

@luvteaching AK is amazing - I hope your cruises help comfort you. Hugs 🤗as you remember & miss your your DSIL. Cancer sucks.

@mrs_hauntedskipper and the larger balcony is great for viewing Alaska. We were portside deck 6 2 cabins aft of the glass elevator last May in Eurodam - no issues w/the cabin or location. Safe travels- enjoy your cruise!

@CruiserBruce have thoroughly enjoyed following your Run for the Sun!! I look forward to your final thoughts - safe travels home.

Not urban myth - it has been discussed on CC threads that ship water does have more salt. I think @chengkp75 can provide details.

You may not even need to tell them you want to redeem the free drink coupon; when they scan your card, they'll know if you've used it or not. I didn't mention it and got $11 off the price of a chocolate martini. That was Sept, so the limit may have increased.

That's a happy ending! So, what had happened, do you know, with the address change request and apparently phony emails?

+1 @kazu

I know someone will let us know about Big Wind Day💨 & Street Children. Big day in space. Pass on the meal & drink, would try the wine if the price is right, been to the port several times, but no pictures to post - they're on my computer. Thank you everyone for DH birthday wishes 🎂 he was touched by how many people he's not met thinking of him. This is the best group of people 🤗 @aliaschief pictures are wonderful - today's look like they're from the pages of National Geographic. Yesterday work was B2B calls w/several double booked; today is 0 calls so maybe I can get some work done. I really enjoyed seeing all the fur baby pictures yesterday - we sure have a lot of cute "kids." Wouldn't they make a nice calendar?🤔 Currently 48° headed to sunny 81°. If we hit that today and tomorrow is as windy as forecast, maybe the backyard will dry enough it can be mowed. Have a fan blowing under the kitchen sink and it's not dry yet. Prayers 🙏 and positive thoughts for all.

WOW @aliaschief once again, your pictures are amazing - thanks for sharing.

Congrats!!

We have used tumblers we brought from home as well as the large coffee ones we bought on board in GDC & Explorations Cafe w/no issues. They have not put coffee in paper cup then had us pur into our tumblers, they fill directly into ours.

It was.

Yes, I did.

Well said - thank you. Agree. And one HAL ship seems to be particularly popular.

Not @Mary229 I classify opening my cabin door resulting in having an unleashed dog run into my cabin and bark at me as an "unprovoked encounter." Surely you don't suggest the mere act of a passenger opening their cabin door to be provocation?

Had to do that for DH and I - fixed our log in issues.

@Nickelpenny Martina's box is lovely ❤️
