But I was on the Anthem some years back and met a young passenger who was on her free casino cruise. She told us she brings $2500 every cruise, plays it on the slots and gets a free cruise for next time. I would have died if I had not asked her what she does for a living (in very polite way) and she said she does nothing.....she got a big inheritance. I am happy that people are able to do that. No comments from me on that, its her life. We enjoyed talking to her and learnt somethings. I have a neighbor who is a public school administrator.He brings $5000 with him on every cruise and has been on a few casino cruises.I never asked him if he wins or loses.

We booked one of the corner aft cabins on deck 7 that have the extra-large balcony. Had that on Liberty in 2019 and LOVED it. I will be on Adventure for the first time in September, 2022.

Hostess set us up for light picnic lunch and a bottle of wine on the deck (fortunately nice sunny day) and lit the little gas fire next to us. Perfectly relaxing wonderful time. Spent two hours there!! Looks like another great trip, Pat! 🍷 15 minutes ago, singinalot said: semi "cruise" related....my sister is looking at having her wedding in Savannah, GA on a river cruise boat!

It was so different and scenic. They sailed right near the Statue of Liberty, even us jaded New Yorkers were in awe! Congratulations to your sister. That is wonderful .When I got married everyone had weddings in wedding halls.Nobody had destination weddings or weddings like your son.Did the ship that he got married on leave from Chelsea Piers ? On a Sunday in 2006 I was on a HS reunion that left from there and people were there to board for a wedding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is plenty to do, or not, according to your preferences. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saved a video as a gif, of granddaughter twirling her baton in the parade last night. I know if I were to try this, there may have been some injuries involved. Looks like she picked up some of my DW skills. She use to do this with fire batons.😳 I like that you were.able to save as a gif. I am going to try this out. I have made pics out of multi pics but not a video. She looks cute. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Ozark_Kid Posted November 12, 2021 #37342 Share Posted November 12, 2021 Looks like the material came in for the back deck. Weather permitting the plan is demo the old deck Monday and start the rebuild Tuesday. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luckynana Posted November 12, 2021 #37343 Share Posted November 12, 2021 @dani negreanu I love Pea Soup. Just today, I was thinking of making it one day this week. Yum!!!!! I usually use a ham hock, or just ham in the soup. If I don't have either, I'll use sausage. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Search for River Street St. Patrick's Day and you'll see some crazy crowds. My parents also lived in Savannah when my dad was in the Army. We had always heard that Savannah had the biggest St. Patrick's Day Parade, so after we retired, Jim, retired FDNY firefighter, and our friend Greg, also FDNY, we met up and stayed in Savannah for a couple of days, in order to see the "biggest" parade. Jim and Greg always marched up Fifth Avenue in NYC for St. Patrick's Day. I also marched one year with the Hibernians. Anyway, long story short, there was not one Bagpipe and Drums Band, not one contingency of firefighters nor police. We were shocked, since NYC and Boston are notorious for these marchers. We also have many marching bands as well as many High Schools and Colleges. While we enjoyed the Parade and festivities that go along with St. Patrick's Day, we still couldn't believe how much different our parades are. Savannah's parade consisted mainly of Military Schools and then families pulling their decorated wagons and kids riding bikes. When the young boys from the Military Schools marched by, you saw many of them with lipstick on their faces, from girls running up to them to plant a kiss! Too cute! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
