That really sounds like a great time.  My daughter and her family are headed for the grandkids first trip to Disney.  It appears their countdown is on. 

 

I don’t recall which Disney property they are on, but they are there for a week.  They were able to get all their dining reservations, so that is a plus.  I can’t believe how far out you have to reserve things.  And how $$$$ it is now.  I know they will have fun. 

 

You’re right, there’s so much planning involved in a Disney trip nowadays compared to when we used to go when our girls were little.  We’re fortunate our family goes often enough that if we miss something, there will always be the next trip.  I’m sure they’ll have a great time and that countdown sign is great!

OMG how scary that looks.   Thank god they are Ok.  🙏   So sorry to hear they lost the family dog in the fire.   Poor pup - May he RIP.

 

Any idea what caused the fire?   Looks like maybe back corner of the house where a kitchen may have been ?

I am so sorry, John.  Thank God your niece and her family are safe.  How tragic about their puppy.  That looks like an awful lot of damage to the house.  House fires are the worst.  😔

Thanks...that's a really nice list.  The Krakhattan and the Sea Monster Mai Tai are definitely in my future.

Sorry to see the bad news..... Did they have a fireplace on the back of the house, chimney fire maybe.

 

Edit: No idea why my post went on Debbie's post.....

Glad they no longer tender at either of their private islands in the Caribbean.    

I never enjoyed having to do tenders.     Always awkward to get on and off plus the lines to wait and that wasn't even large ships.

How awful! Houses can be rebuilt.   So grateful the family is ok but the loss of their dog is heartbreaking.

Yes, there are several I want to try even the ink shots.    Tonight we had Kraken dark n Stormy and really enjoyed.

Tomorrow is espresso martini night.  Then I want to make caribbean rum punch this weekend.

I can usually count on you to be watching the same time as I am. I'll be missing next week.
