Have a lovely cruise 🥂 Can't wait till its our turn in June Thank you so much, Sue! June will be here before you know it. Meanwhile, feel better with this Virus. I hope your next test will finally be Negative for you. 11 hours ago, h20skibum said: At least our long range forecast is for good weather for our travel day next week. Signed up for our testing appointments at Walgreens, near our hotel next Thursday in Florida. Good to hear you'll be having good travel weather for next week. Excellent that you are scheduled for your test near your hotel! 9 hours ago, Sunshine3601 said: Mojito is always my go to drink when on land or sea. I also like mules with Belvederre or Grey Goose vodka. At sea I like an occassion caribbean mule or rum punch with shot of kraken ontop. Watermelon or chocolate martinis are good too if you want something sweet. I'm excited to try an espresso martini with Baileys on my next cruise. I have never had a painkiller and will try that too! This Debbie does not like red wine either. I like a German Riesling or an Italian Pinot Grigio. Wow! My list keeps growing good thing we have vouchers and free drinks in casino! I'll have to put the caribbean mule and chocolate martini on my list, Debbie! I do love a good red sangria! Oh wait! I just looked at my list, and both of these drinks are on it! 9 hours ago, reallyitsmema said: I haven’t gotten any of the free tests through my insurance yet as we have a decent supply. I did get the free N95 masks at CVS last week. They had them at the pharmacy and at the front registers. I have gotten several of the free N95 masks at CVS, but I find it to be very uncomfortable! I pulled the bottom elastic off of the mask, which made it more tolerable, but it looks like I won't be needing them for the cruise tomorrow. 9 hours ago, Ocean Boy said: Cosmos are my other evening go to drink besides the Espresso martinis with Bailey's. Going on my list, OB! 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't recall EVER having the last place team beat the second from last place team to the mat. We actually rewound the show last night to see how different the sky was between when Arun and Natalia finished compared to when Ryan and Dusty finished. Even though they tried to make it look like Arun and Natalia got lost, we're guessing that Ryan and Dusty were at least an hour after them. I didn’t think to look at the sky, but we try not to get sucked into thinking it was a foot race. Do you remember some years back when a team was still laboring in the dark and Phil came to tell them they’d been eliminated? They knew they were out of it, but we’re determined not to quit. No matter how we’re manipulated by editing or turned off by some contestants, we will never miss an episode!

I hope everyone had a great day. Prayers 🙏 for the good people of Ukraine. Take care and stay safe. Graham. Great news about your anuerism scan being negative, Graham!

Even though they tried to make it look like Arun and Natalia got lost, we're guessing that Ryan and Dusty were at least an hour after them. Early in the race I felt like Ryan and Dusty was going to be last because of how down they looked when they were talking to them about the experience. Those interviews during the race give you a hint. You know they do that either after the challenge or at the end of the race. I couldn’t buy into them being last though because I just couldn’t see Arun and Natalia beating them. We thought when Ryan and Dusty took a break and went to the top to look over, it already looked like the sun was setting. I too think the lighting gave it away. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not yet, the contractor rescheduled for next week. Eric put on a dark red (burgundy) bungee cord to match our shutters and front door so it doesn't look that bad. I kept getting out of my car and walking up to the front door but now used to going into the house through the garage. Would be easier if I could simply park my car in the garage but my convertible and Eric's other car are stored in the garage with car covers on them for the winter.

Remember the other name for it,Crazy Country Club.Somebody wrote a book about it that I bought because it was about the people that worked there and I thought my friend Danny would be mentioned but he was not.

Whenever we sailed out of Miami we’d stand at the rail as soon as we boarded to watch those seaplanes land and take off. Residents of the Bahamas took them to Miami to shop every Saturday.

Rare xpcdoojk Posted February 25, 2022 #49797 Share Posted February 25, 2022 We had dinner at A&B Lobster house. we had a conversation at dinner 8 days in Key West with a wonderful house with a lovely private pool a car bikes to ride, and awesome location for free. The downside is we spend. $200 per couple tonight at dinner. I think K and I breakfast at the French Croissant place was 60$. We cheaped out picking up bread and meats and cheese at Fausto’s with some quacamole I made from avocados from Publix and chips for 4 was about 30. We eat at least 2 meals out every day and the range from 50 to 200 per couple. Cruises are a bargain. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George C Posted February 25, 2022 #49798 Share Posted February 25, 2022 Another great day on our rock and romance cruise, we had breakfast in suite restaurant and drummer for Guess Who was sitting next to us , I asked him if he was playing with the band when they visited the White House while Nixon was president and he was there , I had remembered that they told the band you can’t play the song “ American Woman “ , he gave us details of the visit , very friendly guy who was with the band since the 1960’s, they asked them to play since they had British royalty and the band was Canadian . We then saw the band Ambrosia at the pool then the Guess Who later they were fantastic, they had dinner after the show in the suite restaurant and we applauded them when they entered the restaurant. Will add a few pictures later, long day. 12 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NHProud Posted February 25, 2022 #49799 Share Posted February 25, 2022 @dani negreanu I’ve just read your reply to my query about your trip to Dubai . Thank you for your lengthy reply. I had the same impression visiting Belgium but that was years ago so things must have changed . They were very friendly towards me and offered their help even when not asked. I’ve been watching the news today about Ukraine and wondering if you still have family and friends in Romania . The two countries are neighbors and most likely Ukrainians are fleeing into Romania as well as Poland . Very sad and tragic situation and I hope it ends soon . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
