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.- 73 replies

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.- 82 replies

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….

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!- 106 replies

Good morning! Up early after some bad war dreams. Rare but they still pop up now and then but I handle them well other then waking up! We had a wonderful evening out enjoying sizzling fajitas and top shelf margaritas and our designated driver did just fine. We are in line in for what could be some severe weather in the next twenty four hours. We are currently getting some much needed rain. We both had our pedicures yesterday and are proud owners of “happy feet!” Also got a haircut and our cleaning lady left us with a sparkling house. So lot’s got done yesterday and maybe today’s main attraction is watching it rain. Thanks for the reports and daily testimonies!- 108 replies

Good morning! I have been to Philippines on military duty but will do an overnight in Manila on our World Cruise. Our toe nails are starting to snag on the sheets! So we have an appointment for pedicures this afternoon. One of lives great pleasures. Tonight we are taking a neighborhood couple (across the street) out to a Mexican restaurant. It will be nice getting out of house. Thanks for the report and post.- 84 replies

If you would Google “scar treatment creams” there are actually specific treatment creams designed to remove scars. -

Good morning! A mild 67 degrees with another dense fog alert. I need to get out and do some errands today, laundry and refill prescriptions. Haven’t been to Istanbul but have spent many night’s in crew rest in Turkey. Rich you have quite an adventure ahead of you. Enjoy! Graham happy to hear your surgery went well and thoughts and prayers for all those on the Care list. Today’s quote is a hoot. Thanks for the report and post. Have a great week.- 90 replies

Good morning. Getting ready for on line church services. Last night Sue outdid herself and made a so delicious lobster risotto dinner. Enough left over we just may have it again tonight. Might come back when I have more time. In the meantime thanks for the reports and list.- 86 replies

Like all lines there have been some start up issues, supply chain issues but basically veteran Azamara cruisers seem pretty happy. Don’t hear much about Orlando as most exec. Communication is through Azamara President Carol Cabezas. Taken awhile to bring new staff to Azamara standards. We are newbies but enjoyed our first experiences so much we are booked on four cruises and one is a 155 day World Cruise.

Our solution to missing Prisendam is that we are really enjoying Azamara ships. Even smaller then Prisendam in a beautiful boutique setting with a wonderful crew.

Just a note there is no longer “formal nights” and they are now called Dressy Nights.
