Good morning! Up bright and early and getting ready to travel after first light. I would imagine I-10 East will be fairly busy today with holiday traffic. Got the outside spigots insulated and will be leaving the heat up inside the house as wind chill factors are forecasted to be in teens! At present it’s fifty but it’s a coming. So it’s one cup of coffee off to the showers and pack the Lexus. Roy with that positive Covid test are you feeling OK? Hopefully a false positive. Rich thanks for the Report and best to you on the World Cruise. Bon Voyage! May all of you have safe travels, stay healthy and have a wonderful Holiday Season!

Good morning! It’s packing up day and I believe we are bringing most of our house!🤔Fondue pots and accessories. Cooler with Prime Rib, pies, burritos, breakfast casserole, presents for grandchildren and of course booze and warm clothing. We’ll leave early tomorrow morning and will be in Jacksonville around noon. Sports legend Franco Harris died last night at 72! Friday the temperatures in our area will be in the twenties which is pretty cold for us Floridians and fauna! Thanks for the Fleet Report and all who contribute. Stay warm!

First Sail-Away in a long line. Miss the second camera. Thanks for the reminder.

I just realized today would have been my sister birthday and that I lost her one year ago today. Miss you Sis!❤️

Good Morning! Rainy night and more on the way. Have an early dental cleaning appointment and DW told me I’m taking her out to dinner tonight! Terry I’m glad your surgery went well. Amazes me still how they send you home so fast after major surgery these days. Like Redneck Bob I just don’t have much to say today other thanks for the Fleet Report and all your post. Have a great day and for many of you stay warm!

Bon Voyage to all and thank you Roy for stepping in and for volunteering to doing the Sail Away Thread!

And I might add excellent penmanship.😁 We always had a note on Rotterdam cruises.

On those thank you notes from whomever did laundry we have been using the Navigator App to personally thank the laundry crew who did our laundry. Received feedback from front desk on how appreciative they are to be recognized. I bet that sore foot would enjoy a soothing time in the hot tub. Have a great day.

Just stole this one from FB!

Good morning! It’s another cold morning in NW Florida and it appears that will be the norm all week through Christmas. It’s laundry day and a few errands. Today we will have a bowl of home made chili as the weather begs for some spice and warmth in our dining. @smitty34877 Your in many of our thoughts and prayers today for a successful surgery. Thanks for the reports and post. Have a great non stressful holiday week. Bruce

Good morning! Brr! Our first freeze of the year. Presently 32 degrees. We will be doing online church today as we are trying to stay healthy before our family Christmas together. Other then that not much else on the agenda. Might take a ride around town this evening and see some Christmas decorations. Happy Hanukkah to those who celebrate. Have a great day. Here’s a couple of more funnies that my nephew recently sent to me. Thanks for the reports, list and postings.

Si! We are booked again on our April Eurodam from Fla to Vancouver. May you and child bride have a great cruise and joyous Christmas!🎄 PS: I flunked my dance lesson.

Glad you’ve made it onboard. Have a fantastic so well deserved cruise! The Salsa excursion in Cabo is a hoot!

Seeing CD Eric needed to go home has Tony been singing at all to fill the entertainment void?

Good morning! For us Floridians it’s a wee cold this morning at 40 degrees. Having grown up in Vermont the famous debate is always who has the best maple syrup? With fond memories of going to sugar on snow parties. Whether Canadian or Vermont syrup you can’t beat the real syrup. Flew into Guam one time for an hour. Refueled and left. Today is my last day of antibiotics and I feel I’m back to being my ornery old self. Thanks for the report and postings.

Glad you arrived safely in San Diego. Have a great Merry Christmas and thanks for taking us along. Bruce & Sue🎄💐🍾

Bon Voyage!🛳🍾

Good morning! Great morning for sleeping in with temperatures in the forties. Finally some cooler weather and maybe it will slow down the azaleas from blooming. We have been to Funchal several times. It’s a beautiful place. Again not much on the agenda as everything is pretty much done as we await joining family to celebrate Christmas. Lot’s of folks cruising but we have to wait until Jan 5 for our 12 days of Caribbean cruising. Have a great day and thanks for all your post and thoughts.

Received an E-mail being mailed Dec 19. It works.

We live in a bring your own bag society!😊 Seen this on other lines. This fall on an all inclusive Scenic Line River cruise Crown Royal was on the bar menu. Quote “ no matter how many times we have ordered we just don’t get it” Same thing on another major line according to some cruise bloggers. Has to be frustrating for cruise lines and cruisers but the times call for patience, understanding and that one’s cruising experience may not be what we have been accustomed to. Up front honesty by the different lines would be nice. Time will tell but in the meantime we are going to enjoy our cruises and not nit pick over what may not be of what we have been spoiled over in the past. Just saying….

Here’s a link to those free US government Covid test. 5 minutes and they are ordered. https://www.covid.gov/tests

Bon Voyage!🛳🍾

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Enjoy the rest of your cruise!

Good morning! Other then a messy yard and driveway we survived last nights storm. Not so lucky are folks West of us but we did receive a few precious inches of rain. Day is going to be full of errands which many will be at our local Ace hardware. We basically are just awaiting next Thursday when we head for daughters house for Christmas. Should be interesting with two grandchildren under three and the I’m in charge 7 year old. Very happy to hear Jacqui made it out of time and will be able to enjoy the Koningsdam. Have a great day!

Happy Anniversary!💐🍾
