It does nothing to get others to see their point of view.😐 Yes I agree. I was brought up by my parents with the mindset if you can’t say something nice don’t say it at all. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare aussielozzie18 Posted May 23, 2023 #94184 Share Posted May 23, 2023 Good morning. Been up since 3.30am. Always seem to be awake for the sail in and it’s always been worth it. Had a lovely relaxing cruise and enjoyed our four ports very much. First time cruising in our Autumn and would happily do a South Pacific again at this time of year. 24 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lenny, there are parts of any borough that are rough. Try walking in Brownsville in Brooklyn, Jamaica in Queens, the North Side of Staten Island. George and I don't need to venture up to The Bronx because all of the places that attract us are in "the city", Manhattan. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Sea Dog Posted May 23, 2023 #94186 Share Posted May 23, 2023 Frustration today in that my internet went out. On the phone with Google Fiber for over an hour trying to reset the router. No good so they will send out a tech tomorrow afternoon. In the meantime can’t watch our YouTube TV or use our computers for the internet. I can only connect via cellular on my phone. So I may absent for awhile until we get this fixed. Ughhhh! 15 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't feel so bad now for not having hot water for 3 days after our water heater crapped out Friday night. At least we had internet. 🙂 5 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helen haywood Posted May 23, 2023 #94189 Share Posted May 23, 2023 @Sea Dog I feel for you with no internet! Since you were having sidewalks put in that made me think of someone accidentally cutting a line. DH did that laying some irrigation pipe…of course, on a Friday afternoon. No internet for the weekend. OK, we watched DVDs. Got ready for bed and realized no internet meant I couldn’t connect my Bose sleepbuds…yikes…which meant he was sleeping in the guest room. 9 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our house relies on having the Internet with our Ring doorbell and security cameras, Alexa for our daily alarms and of course our ability to watch tv. I do have a over the air antenna but because we live in an area surrounded by hills I can only get one channel. Looks like we will be on our phones a lot tonight and through tomorrow. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our house isn’t that big but I love that we have two hot water heaters, two a/c and heating units so if it goes out on one side we can still function. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We traveled yesterday, so that Susan could get together with her four sisters, an aunt, and a cousin. They all travel from Pennsylvania, Indiana, and Illinois, a couple times a year to meet somewhere central to all of them. I was disturbed to read that some idiots blackened the Trevi Fountain in some sort of climate protest. I certainly hope they face some serious consequences. I bet Susan and her sisters, aunt and cousin had the best time together!! Yes, I was so upset when I saw what these ignorant idiots did at the Trevi Fountain. I agree..I sure hope they throw the book at them, since they're in Italy, and not in the US where now a days they would be let free without bail.🫤 8 hours ago, A&L_Ont said: I hope they face serious consequences as well.

I feel your pain! Our internet in our Condo is so unreliable! I can't tell you how often we are without our internet!! We don't lose our tv, but it gets glitchty at times. Jim feels it has to do with the wiring on our floor. (We're on the 2nd floor, and the 1st floor doesn't seem to have any problems with either their internet or their tv) Here in New Jersey, once the Jersey Shore gets busy, our internet slows down..... 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
