Well, not entirely. One of the hallmarks of Crystal World Cruises was a "World Cruise Games" which featured events attuned to the age of the passengers. I was on that segment in 2018 and one of the events was putting. I did not do well but had one moment of glory with a hole in one: Roy

Today's sunrise is from the same trip as the one with the Carnival Fantasy. My brother's reunion was September 20, 2014 and on September 21 I started home mid-morning: Roy

Excellent! Roy

Thank you for the Rich for the Hump Day Report. 3 great days, although it's many years since I've played miniature golf. It's also the last full day of summer in the Northern Hemisphere, although tomorrow is mostly summer. I love the Lennon quote, but have not been to Townsville. I'll pass on the meal. My alternative is an Amtrak Empire Builder chicken entree as served on September 21, 2017 on the way to Seattle to meet MS Oosterdam. Today’s care list: LocoLoco1 recovering from back surgery Western wildfires and those in Fiona’s path Emergency workers, including Maryland Urban Search and Rescue Marshhawk’s friend Jesse with throat cancer and in denial Seriousness of Cruzin Terri’s leak damage HAL Sailer Sister in law feeling too week to meet her brother From the rotation: Sandi’s neighbor Linda Cruising-along niece awaiting a kidney Status of St. Louis Sal (7/1), msmayor (5/20) and JAM37 (7/7) Heartgrove brother discharged but in hospice care Celebrations and Shoutouts: Volendam in Italian waters 3 days for fatcat04 (Nieuw Amsterdam 9/24 to 10/2) Still fight left in HAL Sailer Sister in Law Welcome home aliaschief Rowsby in Hawaii until 9/28 Marshhawk (Ecstasy to 9/22), norseh20 (Regata to 9/25), Oceansaway17 (Adventure OTS to 9/25), Vict0riann (Nieuw Amsterdam to 9/25), sailingdutchy (Oosterdam to 10/10), and Gail&Marty (Rotterdam to 10/15) at sea Staff Captain Sabine - Our first female Staff Captain and HAL’s likely first female Captain(I know this is a repeat but she’s worth it) Roy

Are there any wildfires near you? Roy

Not really belated. Today is the Anniversary of their ceremony with the Rabbi. Roy

I have a sunset today rather than a sunrise. It's from September 20, 2017 taken from Amtrak's Cardinal from Baltimore to Chicago as we chugged along the New River in West Virginia. Roy

Thank you for the Tuesday report, Rich. A nice collection of days; I believe it is also National Voter Registration Day in the US. I love the Dalai Lama quote . I have not been to Trieste but it's become a very important port, and is also the current home of my beloved Crystal Serenity and Crystal Symphony as they are prepared for an eventual return to service under new management. I'll pass on the meal. My alternative is Pasta and Lemon Tart as served on Amtrak's Cardinal to Chicago, the first dinner of a round the world trip on Amtrak, Oosterdam, Amsterdam, KLM, and Prinsendam.

Today's sunrise is from a 2003 land trip to Australia and New Zealand. On September 19 we were in the vicinity of Ayres Rock: Roy

Happy Anniversary @mamaofami. Also a special salute to the Mounties leading today's procession. Roy

Thank you for the report, Rich on this terribly sad but moving Monday. I like @puppycanducruise's comment about Pirates and Butterscotch but I am not a dancer. I like the Alborn quote but have never been to or even booked to Isafjordur. I don't like spicy so I'll pass on the meal.

Sounds like the move was not your choice, and definitely NOT a good move vis a vis motion of the ocean but perhaps some view of the ocean made up for the increased motion and definitely better than having the sea come crashing in on you. Roy

Today's sunrise is from my 2014 Carnival Fantasy cruise. September 18 was our sea day, the last day before our return to Charleston and meeting my brother for his reunion. Roy

I hope that was NOT the official Priest for the cruise. Roy

I just got an email from the Maryland Urban Search and Rescue with several members from my county are being deployed to Puerto Rico. Roy

Thank you for the Sunday report, Rich. I'll take my burger without the cheese and appreciate Wife Appreciation Day and Women's Friendship. One year ago today I was back in upstate New York for my 60-year high school reunion. Interesting point of view by Wilde. The meal sounds interesting, the stuffing is the key. I have not been to Livorno although I was supposed to be last year, bringing the Carnival Legend to Baltimore.

Are you willing to share what system you taught in? Roy

What about in Scotland and I assume not while on extended travels. Roy

With the storm apparently headed North and West of the Aleutians, I see very little likely impact on cruises. There's a Silversea ship headed for Dutch Harbor that might be but I doubt any big cruise ships will see much. Roy

Today's sunrise is another from my 2012 Crystal Symphony transatlantic. September 17 was a sea day from Reykjavik to New York and the day we would have called at Halifax if we had not been delayed by storms: Roy
