Where in Rime are you headed? Argentina Residenza (Largo do Argentina). Very central — 5 mins walk to Pantheon, Fontana da Trevi, Campo di Fiori… and Corso V. Emanuele for shopping. Affordable too, 230 € per night, including buffet b’fast and free cancellation. At least 5 other couples from our cruise stay here. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Lionesss Posted June 11, 2022 #60253 Share Posted June 11, 2022 Well. Today was the big day. The reveal. Christina had the neighbor open the sealed envelope and put colored bandanas on her German Shepherds. We all gathered in the yard and the girls ran out dressed in their bandanas. 32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My daughter said there's a place just down the road from us here in Jersey that she wants to go to pick blueberries. I can still taste the sweetness of those berries. 5 hours ago, Luckynana said: How are you feeling today, Bonnie? Heavy pain comes and goes. This afternoon it was bearable. I'm teaching 3 patients here how to play mah jong. Perked me up some. Thank you for asking, Maryann. @grapau27Your food porn looks delicious as does @dani negreanuDani's. Pizza and pasta look superb. Wonderful place to people watch. 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare aussielozzie18 Posted June 11, 2022 #60258 Share Posted June 11, 2022 Just finished two non-fiction books set in Italy. One is an Australian travel writer who decides to buy a very old Vespa from eBay and then travels around Italy on it. Great read. Second one is an Australian family of 6 who move to Italy for a year, then at the very end of their stay they deal with the looming pandemic and subsequent lockdown. The friendliness of the Italians & the amazing food descriptions makes me hope to visit the country one day. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither of us really care for it, but we aren't going to throw it out either. 😃 With the basil and jalapeño you can't taste the rum anyway. Bad choice of muddler, but it was the first one I grabbed. The smooth bottom one would have been better on the basil leaves. I didn't really care because after the first drink I knew the other ones would end up in the blender. 🤣 This is what the drink looks like when making multiples in the blender. Yum. Much quicker and I also add a lot more basil and jalapeño than what the recipe calls for. That green drink looks healthy! 😉 Edited June 11, 2022 by derorim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like you are having a great time. Enjoy! 3 hours ago, bobmacliberty said: Greg - Did you see a more detailed recipe related to the frozen Dark 'n Stormy? I couldn't find this one online. I tried 1 oz fresh lime juice, 1 oz ginger syrup, 2 oz Goslings rum, and 2 cups ice in a blender. It initially looked slushy but then liquid settled out. Maybe more ice? The taste was good though. That was all I saw. Here is a link to a recipe that I think would work. https://www.bonappetit.com/recipe/dark-and-stormy-slushy 1 hour ago, Lionesss said: Well. Today was the big day. The reveal.

Rare Sea Dog Posted June 12, 2022 #60262 Share Posted June 12, 2022 I love my TA and you all know and love him. Just paid off balances on our two upcoming cruises in September and October. He noticed that he could save us $200 and did that for us. He is always at the top of his game. I'm really starting to get excited for Symphony and then Liberty. Should I start packing? 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The speed varies throughout the day. I am looking forward to a consistent 25G or more speed so I can drop my home internet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is real good download but I wonder if you disconnected from your home internet by first going to settings then connections then wifi. Make sure you are off home internet/wifi then test. If you already did before the last test, that is really good speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is really good speed. They must of upgraded a tower near you. At half that speed you could stream 4k movies. If I had that speed I would get a 5G router and do away with my home cable/internet. Check the speed at different times of the day to see if the speed holds up. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
