mets07 Posted August 10, 2022 #67476 Share Posted August 10, 2022 Keeping up with this thread is a whirlwind, especially while traveling. We just completed a 3 week trip from New Jersey to Florida by car with multiple stops and 2 cruises. Explorer of the Seas out of Miami followed immediately by Harmony of the Seas out of Port Canaveral. We had fun. Best wishes to all of you. Here are some photos: Outer Banks, North Carolina Pompano Beach, Florida, where my parents owned a condo for many years. Sunset, Curacao. Aruba from ship: CoCo Cay ..... South Beach.... most people had left to get back on the ship... And (yes) a brief stop on the way home at Amelia Island, Florida. 🙂 23 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also enjoy making grilled pizza with Naan bread. Your recipe sounds delish. Will give it a try. Thank you! Yes, I was one of those people that recommended roasting garlic. I do quite frequently. Love love love but now that I am back in an office they make not love as much as do. Maybe it'll keep people out of my office😁 Toby,both of our daughters and my son in law Eric all make pizza😀 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't know what kind of suite it is when you check in I printed my setsail pass and luggage tags today and noticed it does not say suite, we have a JS for our Oasis sailing. ??

You are right. As hot or hotter at home. And if our son had not watered our plants while we were away, they would not have survived. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is it about a Jr Suite that beats a OVB. Is the bathroom as nice as a GS? I liked being able to eat breakfast and lunch at CK but not enough to pay a couple grand more for it. I also liked the Suite deck but I am guessing you miss out on that too in a JS. The extra space in JS is nice. Extra wide balcony with double windows is also nice. Full tub / shower nice! Dinner at CK. Walk in closet for most. Some JS have full bath with a separate powder room/toilet, depending on ship. I know Anthem has them. I think they are J4s vs J3s. And double points😃 We only get when price is right. We are mid ship deck 9 for our Oasis sailing. I tried for deck 8 for easy access to CP but all JS were gone when we booked a couple months ago.

I was surprised at how many lines were going to the mooring. Usually it's just one. 1 hour ago, Jimbo said: When you hear the first whistle, that just means you can get a closer picture. Go for it! also don't let the first whistle back you off. First whistle just means you can go another 10ft or so. If some official person comes up to you and starts yelling at you about being whistled at, start doing sign language. 😆 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As soon as we got off the ship, everyone was swarming us trying to get us to buy jewelry, get our hair braided, etc. I started speaking French (thank you, high school!) and they all backed off and swarmed someone else b/c they thought I didn't speak English and they wanted an "easy sale". 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grapau27 Posted August 10, 2022 #67490 Share Posted August 10, 2022 Good morning. It is currently 74°F and sunny. Pauline and her work colleagues are currently at the church funeral service of one of their colleagues who died aged 56. Take care friends and make every day a special day.

taznremmy Posted August 10, 2022 #67491 Share Posted August 10, 2022 Wow!! Been gone for two days, and playing catch up. First of all... @dani negreanu Hopefully things have quieted down and you are safe. Happy to hear that the party was postponed for safety sake. Also, are you OK with the title change of the thread? When I first noticed this, I was hopeful that it was at your request. I'm sorry that it wasn't. Secondly... I loved everyone's cat pictures. Makes me miss mine so much, but with all the traveling I am doing right now, not the right time to get another. I'm the weirdo that goes up to people walking their dogs and asking if I can pet them. 😂 @Ourusualbeach I will be in Copenhagen (first time) next month for the Voyager TA. Love to hear what your "must see" list contains. LOVE the photos from your hotel! @DaniDanielleI am so happy to hear that you will all be cruising together. Enjoy your time on Oasis. I'm currently on the Navigator OTS for a short 4 day getaway. I was having cruise withdrawals. 😁 I do a lot of "like" and "smiley faces", but don't post that often. This thread is such an important part of my day, thank you @dani negreanu and everyone here. Stay safe. Stay well. 18 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sunshine3601 Posted August 10, 2022 #67494 Share Posted August 10, 2022 I watched BD Med from Monday night last night. The sacking of Raygan was uneventful, pretty much how she was a bosun. I feel bad for both Dave and Natasha. He really should have backed off. The things he said to her were uncalled for but she also misled him. She was basically throwing herself at him in the beginning. Do we think the new deckhand will be Malia? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it will be Malia. Storm deserves the chamce to prove himself as bosun and I don't think she would fall back into the role as a deck hand after being a bosun. At least I hope it is not Malia. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare bobmacliberty Posted August 10, 2022 #67500 Share Posted August 10, 2022 It amazes me how Marvel can continue to crank out movies and TV series. Just saw the previews of She-Hulk: Attorney at Law. Looks entertaining. I tend to enjoy things where the lead role is a bad a$$ woman. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
