Rare Lois R Posted June 8 #9053 Share Posted June 8 Hi girls, I am in the middle of trying to decide about a cruise for later this year. I have a Caribbean cruise booked for December but not sure I want to do the Caribbean again. I am looking at 2 other options. Melissa, I am looking at a 2 week cruise starting in Auckland ending in Melbourne. I have never been to your part of the world before. I know it is supposed to be awesome! I also know it is a long, long flight. And my other option is a 14 night TA CROSSING from Lisbon to Ft. Lauderdale. Much shorter flight. But of course 2 totally different type of cruises.

MrToblerone Posted June 8 #9054 Share Posted June 8 Hi Lois ,If you do decide to come down this way for a cruise make sure it includes the South Island in New Zealand as that is the most beautiful part of our country and definitely worth seeing if you come all this way and are only going to do it once. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both Australia and New Zealand are amazing and even though the flight is a killer, it is worth it! I loved Auckland and Melbourne is amazing as well, my vote would be for this cruise!

Rare Lois R Posted June 8 #9056 Share Posted June 8 Hi Sherri, I figured you would vote for that one🙂 It also has to do with the $$$. I will know next week if I can get a lower single supplement on it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slidergirl Posted June 8 Author #9058 Share Posted June 8 Melody - wish the daughter good luck with the surgery!! Sherri - I'm really upset to hear about the money issues you dad is in. Someone taking advantage of an elder is really nasty. I hope there was some paperwork on the "loan." OOTD: a hot and sneezy day (darn cottonwoods). my denim shorts and a Pact organic cotton tank top. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WELDON Posted June 8 #9059 Share Posted June 8 Sherri, Is there someone looking after your dad's finances now? Sorry to hear your dad was taken advantage of. Next month, I have back to back trips. I'll be in Cape Cod for a week and the following week, I'm going on a Canada/NE cruise. No more trips until December. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Lois R Posted June 9 #9061 Share Posted June 9 I got a new tote bag today at Nordstrom Rack😀It is going with me on the girls trip. And best of all, I had a gift card so it was it didn't cost me anything!😀 It is a LeSportsac bag, which I happen to really LOVE. Strong nylon that is very lightweight. It should be perfect. It zips across the top and it will hold quite a bit so my carry won't be extra heavy. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

awhfy Posted June 9 #9063 Share Posted June 9 Karin had been given the ok to go to Hawaii!! She has a waterproof brace & a waterproof knee cover. Doc said her incision is healing much better than expected. She can’t swim but we’ll stand in the water. Les & I leave Thursday for Vegas & on to Hawaii on Friday. Everyone else is on a flight Friday. Melody. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OOTD: a hot and sneezy day (darn cottonwoods). my denim shorts and a Pact organic cotton tank top. It was not any type of loan, Kat. He wrote her a check from a money market type account whenever she needed something. My parents both gave her money whenever she needed it. According to my brother, his account is almost completely wiped out but, fortunately, he gets a monthly pension so he is not destitute.

She would go to him requesting money for attorney fees, court fees, etc for a legal case she was involved in. He would write a check on his account, many checks were for $1500 and up. What I don’t think he realized is often this happened and how much it was adding up to. I think many times, he does not even remember doing it.
