Thank you for the Tuesday report, Rich. Miner's lives are both difficult and dangerous but their services are vital. Walt Disney was a real influence on our culture. I love Gazpacho, especially as it was served on a BHB. The quote is very interesting, I think I agree with most of it, but a lot to digest. I've only been to Norway on the Elegant Explorer, but not to Stravamger. The meal sounds nice. My alternative is Spaghetti, Sauteed Veal Piccata, and Tiramisu, my first dinner on Prinsendam's new Canaletto on December 6, 2013.

I don't know if it ever fills up for lunch but a good time to try is when a port is cancelled. They usually start taking reservations almost immediately. Roy

Thank you for the Monday report, Rich. I haven't worn blue jeans for years but will definitely salute volunteers including MANY dailyites. I'll take a pass on Ninja day, but love the Einstein quote. Never been to Mcronesia. Today's meal suggestion is so comprehensive I'll take a pass on an alternative today. I finally got my antivirus situation resolved yesterday afternoon.

And she's gone. Thanks Kathi, Lou & Dave, and fellow addicts. Roy

Several nice toots today. Roy

Anytime NA wants to move forward I'm ready. Roy

Today's sunrise is from my 2013 Amazon cruise. December 4, 2013 was a sea day from Devils Island to Macapa. Roy

Thank you for the Sunday report, Rich. Cheetahs are magnificent creatures, and where would our countries be without our banks. My cookie of choice is oatmeal raisin and I had some wonderful ones on the Eurodam. The Brigham Young quote is certainly interesting. Sadly, I've never been to Tasmania. A patty melt sounds interesting. My alternative is Chilled Blackberry Soup, Grilled Lamb Chop, and Strawberry Crisp as served on MS Prinsendam December 4, 2013. Yesterday was kind of a frustrating day. I have a new laptop and it's my first with Windows 11. It came with a trial antivirus subscription from the same company I use on my existing computers and have a blanket subscription. I tried to add the existing subscription to the new laptop but it would only allow me to buy and extension of the trial. I wasted about 2 hours with McAffee support but it went nowhere because I couldn't get Win11 to allow them to make some changes. I think I have FINALLY resolved the Windows problem and they are due to try again this afternoon. I did only quickly scan yesterday's report so may have missed some things.

Here she is (was), got distracted :after arrival Roy

Missed sailaway. Got tied up on a computer support issue. Roy

Oh no. Wishing you mild cases and a speed y recovery. Roy

Looks like a string of sunrises from my 2013 Prinsendam Amazon cruise coming up. On December 3 we visited Devil's Island. Roy

Bon Voyage! Roy

Thank you for the Saturday report, Rich. I'll celebrate all 3 of the days today and the Angelou quote rings true to me. I've been to Reykjavic several times, mostly Crystal Symphony but also Prinsendam. I think the lips are responding; it may just be force of will power but I did not feel the need for a lip balm between treatments yesterday. It's fairly warm but raining here today; tomorrow will be clear and cold. The next 10 days or so will mark our earliest sunsets; while the equinox is about 12/21 sunsets will soon start getting later while the latest sunrises will be about January 3=10. I'll pass on the meal. My alternative is Chilled Carrot and Orange Bisque, Ribbon Zucchini Risotto, and a Butterscotch Sundae as served on MS Prinsendam December 3, 2013.

Today's sunrise is from a 2016 combination, QM2 Eastbound transatlantic, a voyage on QE to fill a timing gap, and a return transatlantic on Seabourn Odyssey. On December 2 Queen Elizabeth visited Lisbon: Roy

@StLouisCruisers I'm wondering why you're tendering. I've always docked at Manaus. Water levels perhaps, or was the Prinsedam the only BHB able to dock. Roy

Thank you for the TGIF Fleet Report and Daily, Rich. I'll pass on the Faux Fir and don't really see a lot of bartenders since I don't drink but will celebrate pollution prevention. I love the Riordan quote and have been to Lima several times, I think on the Crystal Symphony, Prinsendam, and Zaandam. The Pork Chops sound nice. My alternative is Apple and Pear Gazpacho, Grazed short ribs with roasted garlic cloves, and Key Lime and white chocolate tart as served on MS Prinsendam December 2, 2013. It's too early to tell but I think the new meds are helping.

Went to the pharmacy between 4 and 5 and picked up the meds, an antibiotic and a topical cream. Took the first antibiotic pill and will aply the cream late this evening. Both are for 7 days and if they don't work she wants to refer me to a Dermatologist. Roy

I got an EXCELLENT upsale at a very reasonable price on my recent Eurodam cruise. I would have taken it except that I had specific plans for my cabin. Roy
