While I  know I’m late to the party/discussion of electric vehicles, I’ll put my two cents in now anyway. In February 2023 I bought a Mach E a 2023 Mustang. I love it. And my learning curve was much quicker than I expected. Initially I just plugged it into the wall to charge. And yes, it’s very slow that way, but I don’t do a whole lot of driving now being retired. My son who I live with had a Tesla And a Tesla charger. So now I charge my car using that with an adapter and it’s pretty quick. 
 

 

I love your car! 😍

Oh that’s good to know. I don’t blame you for being very nervous before he was caught. I too would be terrified.
 

On two occasions after midnight I have heard gun shots, the last event was this past Friday. Nothing was ever mentioned on news and didn’t see any police activity but it has made me so nervous. We live in the country slowly being overtaken by the city. We don’t have these things around here normally. The gun shots could have been someone trying to get a coyote but still makes me nervous. 

That's so very scary.

Same here. I know from my parents' pics from a more recent sailing that the ship was completely remodeled inside and looks much nicer than it did back then. I loved it, though.

I have no complaints about my cruise but oh, those wood-panelled cabins! I was happy to see in April that Jade has also been remodeled. I look forward to seeing Paul's pictures of the changes.

I can't believe it's been 10 years since I sailed on Pearl! I look forward to following along and hope you 2 have a great adventure. 😁🥂

And I brought the cooler. Help yourself to an ice cold mango White Claw. 

Thank you. I haven't tried the mango flavour. 😁

Don’t mind me… just setting up my lawn chair and awaiting @TxTeach79’s live. 

Yep, same here. 😁

We have a cruise booked on the Prima for December 2025. A little nervous but excited to try that class of ship. Going to have to sail them to sail the fleet!

That's great! I'll look forward to your review if I don't sail before that. 😁

Will a cruise on the Viva be in your future? I'm very intrigued by this ship and Prima also.

Have a good flight home. Thanks for taking us along, the ship looks beautiful.

@Roscoe13 and I are planning a dinner the night before… then we will probably head to The Spot, because that’s Galveston tradition. 

That sounds like a great idea! We're in.

@SenatorsFan are your flights scheduled? 

No, not yet.

Count me in too! Hope you have a great time. 🥂😃

The Virgin Islands are now under a state of emergency.  Why, you ask?  We have no FG power!!  The CEO of the Water and Power Authority (WAPA) resigned.  Puerto Rico froze WAPA's bank account to pay overdue bills and fees.  Meanwhile, high ranking WAPA employees are driving around in new Teslas (instead of investing in solar) and all high ranking officials have solar.  They poured big bucks into completing the racetrack in time for Carnival--the racetrack is used about 3 times a year... Businesses here are struggling.  Mom & Pop stores don't have generators.  Our generator broke down last night.  Not a happy camper right now!

I'm so sorry to hear this.

Our’s started about 10pm. Thankfully, the wind was NOT 100mph. 

Well, that's a relief!

We're especially looking forward to seeing Bonaire for the first time.

Hey @SenatorsFan what are you up to today? Anything fun you want to share?! 😆

You're too funny.😆 Well, as it turns out, I somehow have a September Celebration cruise to the ABCs booked, thanks to my wonderful cruise travel agent. 😉 95 days and counting, since February is just too long to wait to cruise again.

Beautiful stained glass, @pebbles1102! It looks like a great trip. Cheers.

my last cruise was last October.  My next cruise is end of August.  I have been going through cruise withdrawals for several months.  The only thing keeping me sane is the Live reviews.  Any recommendations for hotels in Miami?  I know some of you like the Brickell area.  

We've stayed at Indigo Brickell, Courtyard Miami Downtown and Intercontinental.

Another option is stay near the airport at a hotel with airport shuttle.  Shuttle back to airport morning of cruise and use the Carnival transfer service. 

Thanks! It's good to know that we have options. 😄

I hope you had a nice relaxing cruise Sid.

Yes, but they are flying in from Canada. They aren’t going to take a car out to Texas or League City and stay to drive back. 

True, thanks, Megan! 🤗

@KmomChicago I hope you'll both feel better very soon.

@dmet0225 well that's not good; sorry.
