He’s a great cat…very cuddly and lately, a little rambunctious. Teenagers. He too is an indoor cat who likes to watch his “prey” out the window. His latest trick is turning off the lights. Don’t ask me how he figured that one out. He is very talented. Even my Annabel has not figured out how to turn off the lights. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare brillohead Posted October 1, 2022 #72952 Share Posted October 1, 2022 Found out this week that a friend is going to be in Costa Maya on Serenade on one of the days I'm going to be there on Oasis in November. I introduced her to Maya Chan a year ago, and she's introducing her cruise friends to it this time. You know you cruise a lot when you run into friends in ports unexpectedly!

Two spring forwards and two fall backs to get us back on California time. Are people too dumb to just stay on ship time without counting on their cell phones? I really dislike time changes. ☺️ I agree. Did that itinerary in January, and it was SO annoying. So much easier to just tell everyone EVERY DAY to "remain on ship time" than to change four times in seven days! I just turn my phone to Manual Settings when I cruise, so I never have to worry about it picking up a rogue time zone. Why not publish info on how to do that instead of doing all the back-and-forth crap? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check in is 11. I don't expect it to be quite as busy as our July cruise was. October is not usually bad. Here on the east coast we really just had a little rain, and as Ian came across the state, we got windy with the west winds. Our kids on the west coast of the state were north on the bad stuff, and had no issues. They were planning a trip to Michigan to see his family, and with Tampa and Orlando airports shut down, managed to get a flight out of FLL, so they are now in Michigan. This will be the last of our double point trips, but our C&A points will be at 686 when we come home. Since Allure will be going to Galveston soon, our next cruise will be Harmony out of Everglades in January. That will be the ones that will get us to the magic 700. Enjoy your cruises. What Harmony cruise will you make it to 700? 2 hours ago, molly361 said: Power came back 10pm Lost all food but that's okay. My friend is waiting for her son to take her to survey her house.

How many weeks are we sailing, you ask? 5/7 of a week. If you see us in port, don’t be surprised if I flip you the bird. LOLOL. Just kidding. At least we get one cruise with the extra points on top of the suite points. Enjoy your cruise. 7 hours ago, Coralc said: Okay. It won't let me edit.

Condolences to his family and friends. I went to high school with a guy who was in a group in the late 50’s.They released a song on a 45.I spent years trying to find it with no success.I told Fred,owner of KAPE and a few weeks later there was a knock on my door.It was Fred with the record.I was so happy,I did not mind that it cost me $8.It was the worst song I ever heard . Coolio was a very nice guy ,very intelligent .I was so sorry to hear of his passing at age 59. Edited October 1, 2022 by lenquixote66 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BonTexasNY Posted October 1, 2022 #72964 Share Posted October 1, 2022 I very rarely post weather updates but we are having the very best weather possible in the Dallas area. Last week and the coming week; sunny temps in the mid to low 80s. Love it! We made it into the new H-E-B store. Crowded but manageable. I don't know what the hype is. People were on line the night before it opened and waited 12 hours to get in. I don't get it. It's a supermarket. Maybe someone can enlighten me? Smooth sails to those about to embark on cruises. @molly361Ellen, glad your power is back on. In NY, during a power outage, my neighbors decided to have an ice cream party. We brought our ice cream to a neighbor's porch and had the best time catching up. It was almost a let down when power came back on! 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's important that you take the time the next two weeks to get the Allure in perfect condition. Especially make sure the ice cream machine is working. Also let performers know you want them to put on the best shows your 3rd week. Please let me know how it's going. And yes, we will be joining you the 15th. Looking forward to meeting you! Have a fun and safe cruise! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not weather related but similiar.In 1965 I was working in mid-town Manhattan and on my way home only to find out that there was a blackout. I walked to Baruch College knowing that a friend would be there and he would be able to drive me home.I entered the student center and everyone was in a party mood .I hung out there till midnight and then got a ride into Brooklyn. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The most we have done is 4 weeks and it was really rough to come back home and get back to a daily routine of work, cooking, cleaning. 10 weeks would have me so relaxed and spoiled I would have to bring home at least one or two crew members to help get me back into my groove😁 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only downside for me here in Florida is not living near an HEB. Winn Dixie and Publix do not compare. HEB has a great produce aisle, a great bakery (Asiago cheese bread), great meat section etc. My husband was helping some people in Texas a couple of weeks ago and brought me 2 loaves of their bread. One loaf is gone and I am working on the second. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
