Silversea Water Cooler: Welcome! Part Five

[Lois R]

Good morning...…...good one Mysty, wish I could travel forward until Spring.....I am now even more seriously going over my "retirement plan"...…..this gig is just not doing it for me anymore...…..Dec will be 29 years with the company.

 

JP, I just checked on line and they removed that cc from my banking info...….I should be getting a new card sometime next week.  Fortunately I have others I can use in the meantime.

Woo hoo! 

[jpalbny]

Have a great sail, TTS! Just 3 weeks and 2 days to go for us, but it will be painful at work until then.

[mysty]

Greetings Coolers!

 

Safe travels and have a wonderful sail TTS and Mrs. TTS!

 

Today's funny.....

 

 

Have a great day all!

Hi, that looks like a wonderful itinerary

[jillyf]

It’s our 50th Anniversary tomorrow.

We’ve crossed to the Mornington Peninsula to a hotel in a vineyard. Having a degustation dinner with matched wines tonight. 

Tomorrow a family dinner in a lovely house, then having 20 friends for lunch on Saturday. Later that night a family dinner at a new restaurant. 

Playing A Grade!  

It has been an interesting 50 years and we still enjoy having dinner together and travelling with each other. 

Hoping for many more years of travel together. 

[mysty]

Happy Anniversary Jill!  Have a wonderful time celebrating!

YES!!  Congrats and best wishes for many more.  Sounds like fun and exciting activities planned to celebrate.  Three weeks ago we celebrated our 47th and we need to look ahead and consider our options as to the best way to celebrate that upcoming (hopefully) 50th.  

 

THANKS!  Enjoy!  Terry in Ohio

@jillyf Jill, best wishes and wishing you many more adventures together! I hope we grow up to travel as much as you do. We are trying to catch up though we have 26 more years to go!

 

@TLCOhio Terry, where are you staying in the Calgary area? As you may remember, we went to Banff for a long weekend last year. If our destinations overlap any, I'll toss a few last-minute recommendations your way.

Yes, J.P., love from you and/or anyone else to be offering any added tips, secrets, ideas, etc.  For Calgary, one night, July 16, Tuesday: we will be overnight in Calgary Marriott, next to the Calgary Tower downtown. 
 

July 17 & 18, two nights at Banff, Moose Hotel and Suites.  Could not afford the $800 a night at the more historic and famed Banff hotel.

July 19 & 20,  After driving the Icefields Parkway, doing Lake Louise, two nights in Jasper at Sawridge Inn.  

 

Then, July 21-22 from Jasper, two full days on the Rocky Mountaineer rail adventure, Goldleaf Service with an overnight in Kamloops.

July 22, Monday, arriving Vancouver in early evening, staying at Georgian Court Hotel, 773 Beatty St, close to Yaletown district’s restaurants, near Gastown, Chinatown, shopping, etc.  Thursday, July 25, boarding Silver Muse.  

 

Does this help?
 

THANKS!  Enjoy!  Terry in Ohio

Yes, Terry. Those Fairmonts are pricey! But the properties are just gorgeous, and it was our anniversary, so I splurged. And it was only Canadian dollars, so it wasn't a big deal... 😉  Just kidding, mysty. 😄

 

Will you be self-driving in these areas? A lot depends on that. I will try to get some ideas and pictures together for you - though I am working this weekend and it may be chaotic. Stay tuned.

Yes, those Fairmonts are BOTH pricey and gorgeous.  We definitely want to visit and sample the Fairmont in Banff.  Having lunch there and/OR walking around would definitely be more affordable, but still allowing for lots of ENJOYMENT!!

 

We will be driving on Wednesday to Banff in a rental car and have that vehicle till Saturday night in Jasper.  Yes, love to see more and gain added tips from you, etc.

Doesn’t time fly!

Last year, on 3rd April, we booked a cruise. That was 15 months ago!  Now we are finally down to two figures, We leave in 99 days and sail in 100 days .. whoopee!!!

On the bright side ... the price had doubled to what we paid - and it is now waitlisted.

obviously pays to book early 😀

Too funny. DH just asked me yesterday why dinosaurs became extinct.

Now I can tell him that they literally missed the boat.

[jpalbny]

Yet another weekend at work... Haven't had time yet to clean the fish tank. Hopefully today.

 

Have to go upstairs and get ready but the cat is sprawled out in the foyer. 

 

 

Don't want to disturb the old girl. I'll have another cup of coffee and wait a few minutes. Happy weekend all! 

[jpalbny]

A funny for mysty...

 

 

Good night all. Hope I can get some sleep.

Greetings Coolers!

 

Your funny is hilarious JP!  Thank you!

 

I'll see your porcupine and raise you a "senior moment" even though you are not there yet!  🙂

 

 

Have a great day all!
