  1. Good morning everyone. Thanks for the daily report, recipes and lists. A salute to all African American coaches. There should be zero tolerance for female genital mutilation. I won’t celebrate lame duck day. Funny quote. I think I’ll take a pass on the meal selection today but the drink is always a yes for me as long as it’s made with fresh squeezed lime juice and not sour mix. I haven’t been to today’s port. Prayers for those on our prayer list. Cheers to those celebrating happy events today!
  2. Good morning everyone. Thanks for our daily updates. I think that I could create a disaster with a chocolate fondue! The quote isn’t very nice. We’re about to finish a jigsaw puzzle today and I do go for long walks every day thank you very much. The meal sounds tasty as does the drink. Usually find that one at Chinese restaurants. I like today’s port very much although I haven’t been in over ten years. Prayers for those on our prayer list. Cheers to those of you who are celebrating happy events today!🥂
  3. Good morning everyone. It’s a cold and sunny morning here, 30F. Thank-you for our daily updates. I’m with @puppycanducruise on the days. The quote is interesting but most that make the journey don’t seem to make a return visit, maybe the transition isn’t as bad as we imagine. The meal sounds delicious and pretty simple. Not sure about the drink. I haven’t been to today’s port thanks for sharing all of the wonderful photos. Prayers for those on our prayer list. Cheers to those who are celebrating happy events today!
  4. We used Flight Ease last fall for our return flight from Athens to Boston via Montreal on Air Canada. We were able to snag Dreamliner business class seats for a very good price, approximately what we would have paid for economy had we booked on our own. Our experience was very good although you do give up some control. For instance, our original layover in Montreal was 1.5 hours but was later changed to 4. I tried having Flight Ease rebook to an earlier connecting flight to Boston but it would have been an increase of several thousand dollars, I didn’t like that and we ended up just waiting it out.
  5. Good morning everyone. It’s our first sunny day since in what seems like the sun was invented! Thanks for our daily report, recipe and lists. Lots of nice days to celebrate today, John Singer Sargent is one of my favorite American painters. I like the quote, a precursor to the Monday morning quarterback. The meal sounds delicious, our slow cookers are getting a workout but this is their time of year. I had to look up the drink and I think I’d like it made with diet root beer. I’ve been to today’s port several times, I’ll try attaching a short video I took in 2009, my only photo. Prayers for everyone on today’s prayer list. Cheers to everyone celebrating happy events!

  6. Good morning everyone. Thanks for the daily updates. Looks like the groundhog is predicting a short winter although they haven’t really amounted to much lately anyway. The quote sounds like a bad dad joke. The meal sounds delicious and something I might try over the weekend. Not sure on today’s drink. I haven’t been to today’s port. Prayers for those on our prayer list. Cheers to those of you who are celebrating happy events. Happy Friday!
  7. Rabbit, rabbit, rabbit. Good morning everyone and thanks for the daily updates. Another gloomy day here. A pan of peanut butter fudge would be nice for candy making today. Our car insurance was paid in the fall and I’d rather not think about it until next fall. While it’s a good idea to change your passwords I won’t be doing that today. Interesting quote. The meal suggestion sounds nice but I’ll save my mint julep for the Kentucky Derby. I haven’t been to today’s port but I hope to someday soon. Prayers for those on today’s prayer list. Happy __________ to those of you celebrating today!🥂
  8. Good morning everyone. Thanks for the daily report, recipes and lists. I don’t receive SS for a couple of years but DH gets his first check in March. A Brandy Alexander sounds like a reason to celebrate. Haven’t gorillas been maligned enough already? Funny quote. We’ve been having red lentil and sweet potato pie the past two nights so a pass on the meal but the drink sounds nice. I was in Belfast once but don’t have any photos. Prayers for everyone on our prayer list today, I hope things get better. Cheers to those celebrating happy events like @Cruzin Terri setting sail!
  9. Good morning everyone. Thanks for the daily updates. I would love a chocolate croissant this morning but will have to wait until we sail on the Rotterdam in a couple weeks. My drawing skills would render something along the lines as Dino from the Flintstones, if I’m lucky. We’ll escape to Ft. Lauderdale two weeks from today. The quote is pretty accurate from my experience. I like the meal and drink suggestions very much. We should all be so lucky to have a neighbor like @ger_77, what a gem! Prayers for everyone on our prayer list. Cheers to those celebrating happy events today! Bon voyage to our friends @summer slope, @dfish, @Sharon in AZ, and @Quartzsite Cruiser have a wonderful cruise! 🏝️🛳️🌺
  10. We took the train in October and stayed at the Hotel Abbazia, around the corner from the Santa Lucia train station in Venice. It was so convenient and allowed us to maximize our time there without having to shuttle around to get to and from our hotel and train station. The train station in Trieste was a 15 minute walk to the ship.
  11. Good morning everyone. Thanks to the team for our daily updates. Sometimes I feel like a curmudgeon. Free thinking should always be celebrated. Popping bubble wrap can be addictive. I like the quote, not easy though. The meal and drink suggestions sound good. I haven’t been to today’s port. Prayers for those on our prayer list. Cheers to those celebrating happy events today!
  12. Hello @kazu, please add us to the list for the following repo cruise on the Rotterdam leaving 10/4/2025: 22-Day Norwegian Fjords Crossing. Thank-you.
  13. Good morning everyone. Thanks for the daily report, recipes and lists. Two very somber days to recognize; why are some humans so evil? Chocolate cake can be celebrated every day as far as I’m concerned. Funny quote this morning. The meal sounds good but I’ll pass on the drink, don’t like Campari. I haven’t been to today’s port. Prayers for those on our prayer list today. Cheers to those celebrating happy events. Have a great day everyone!
  14. Good morning everyone. Thanks for the daily updates. We’re having @Crazy For Cats’s weather all day today, a gloomy day. Some nice days to celebrate today but while I can appreciate a dentist’s drill I certainly won’t get jazzed by one! The quote is funny and sensible at the same time. The sounds tasty. The drink is a nice summer refresher or maybe on a warm weather cruise. I haven’t been to today’s port. Praying for those on our prayer list. Cheers to those celebrating happy events today! 🎉
  15. Good morning everyone. Thanks for today’s updates. I had my own room for a good chunk of my younger years and am glad I no longer do. I’ll pass on clashing clothes day. Remembering those who gave the ultimate sacrifice for space exploration. The quote gave me a chuckle. Yes to the meal and drink suggestions but maybe on the weekend. I haven’t been to today’s port. Praying for those on our prayer list. Cheers to those who are celebrating happy events and to those who are doing their last minute packing! 🥂
  16. Good morning everyone. Thanks for the daily updates. Not sure what there is to appreciate about beer cans but ok, what the heck. Belly laughs are good for the soul, the more the merrier! Many of you change your pets’ lives each day. Interesting quote. The meal and drink suggestions sound nice. I haven’t been to today’s port. Prayers for those on our prayer list. Cheers to everyone celebrating happy events today. Happy birthday t0 @Cruising-along.
  17. Good morning everyone. Thanks @kazu, @summer slope, @JazzyV, @rafinmd, and @dfish for keeping us up to date. A good day for upcoming cruisers to measure their feet for a new pair of flip flops. I’ll celebrate pie day on my mom’s birthday 3/14, maybe I’ll celebrate with an apple pie cocktail instead. I’ll work on my handwriting today using the Palmer method. The quote is pretty funny. The meal suggestion sounds promising. I have not been to today’s port. Prayers for all on our prayer list. Cheers to those celebrating happy events today! Happy birthdays to @smitty34877 and @DWAliaschief 🥂
  18. Good morning everyone. It’s somewhat warmer here this morning with bright blue skies. Three important days to recognize. Hats off to our community managers who keep things moving in an organized way. Better business communication is essential, now could businesses do something about their product instructions? I’ll try the meal alongside a protein this evening. I’ll pass on the drink. I haven’t been to today’s port. Prayers for everyone on our prayer list, hoping they help ease their suffering. Cheers to those of you who are celebrating happy events. 🥂
  19. Brrr, good morning everyone. It’s slowly warmed up from 14F when I woke up to a balmy 18F now. Not complaining though because I do like the cold temps occasionally. Today’s meal and drink suggestions sound very tasty although we’re staying away from most carbs until our Rotterdam cruise next month. I haven’t been to today’s port but it’s on our bucket list and probably moved up a few rungs after @StLouisCruisers’s nice photos! Prayers for everyone on our prayer list today. Cheers to those celebrating happy events!
  20. Good morning everyone from a very cold 14F Boston. Thanks for the daily updates. Three good reasons to celebrate today. The meal and drink suggestions sound very good. The quote is pretty funny. I haven’t been to today’s port. Prayers for everyone on our prayer list. Cheers to those of you celebrating happy events and go easy on the cheese!
  21. Congratulations @seagarsmoker on your new job! What a great start to the weekend. I think you’ve made all of our days!
  22. Good morning all. Thanks for the daily report, recipes and lists. I’ll be following @puppycanducruise’s example and brew up a cup of tea this afternoon for my potion. We’re working on a jigsaw puzzle hopefully that helps keep my memory sharp. Hooray for popcorn day! I concur with today’s quote, I try to do something different every day. The meal and drink suggestions sound very nice. Haven’t been to today’s port. Prayers for everyone on today’s prayer list. Cheers to those of you celebrating happy events today!
