Royal Caribbean Cruisers -- How Are Things Where You Are? (was "Routine" ​ 😁 ​day in lockdown... how was yours?)


Recommended Posts

DH & I are having a little getaway to Seal Rocks (approx 3 1/2hrs north of Sydney).  Max is being spoilt again by our housesitters.  We are staying at the lighthouse keepers cottage at Sugarloaf Point Lighthouse.  The weather is beautiful, the cottage is spacious and has views from every angle and having a working lighthouse up close from your backyard is pretty cool.D2B9A9BD-BD58-4D23-88A9-34BA714E1ACD.thumb.jpeg.1df8b79e0872823a52cd2a546f35f0d3.jpeg

@Ozark_Kid  I love the videos of Kenzie.  Not only does she have a sweet voice to go with her adorable face, but I love how gentle she was in handling the tulips.😊

I just hope none of them were posted online, especially of the kids. He needs to be hung by his 🥜.

Same here, Renee. I appreciate the time you took to find the "right" emoji.....😉

I have no doubt. After awhile it becomes draining both physically and mentally. Hang in there.

Agreed.

Charlie managed to stand up from his sitting position on the couch, by himself!!!!

Hopefully, he will continue to improve.  He is having trouble moving his left leg, yet he fell on his right side.  I am just tired.


Some progress, but I understand your exhaustion and frustration.  Hugs sent.

Thank you Dani.   Nothing wrong with your math, it is today.

 

 I have a meeting tonight, for a government board I serve on, so we celebrated early on Saturday night.  
 

It appears that Daryl is alive and well, and he appeared on the cards the grandkids made.

I think our granddaughter is excited about sailing on Utopia, because that was also on her card.  
 

A nice cake.

and a nice meal, cooked by Susan.

Hello,  on our Nassau today. 

 

 Yesterday we docked at PC and went to Cocoa Beach at the Hilton.   Nice area with beach loungers, beach bar and tiki bar.   

I guess I'm out of practice with day drinking.   Perfect Margaritas were very good but very strong.   Had a nice crabcake sandwich.   Hung out till 5 pm.  

 

Food onboard has been good.   We skipped MDR last night and grabbed some snacks in WJ.    Around 11 pm we ordered Buffalo wings and cheesecake from room service.   Both were delicious.

 

Today we are headed to Cable Beach.

Weather has been partly sunny/cloudy.  

 

My neighbor has been sending us kitty photos.  All good there.

 

Cabin on wrong side for sunrise photos....will get them on way back.  Ive been sleeping in till 6:30 or 7 am

Had a very successful poker game , I normally win , but this was a big win, extra money will go towards my casino funds for cruise in 11 days . Bad news was a good friend that has prostate cancer just found out he also has lung cancer we have been playing cards for over 20 years and friends for over 30 and he is just in his early 60’s. 

I wish there was a "hug" button, or at least "sorry to read".

 

@h20skibum Mark, have a fabulous birthday.

 

@Ozark_Kid John,  @Lionesss Sue

Kenzie and Miss Zoey are sweetheart girls!

 

@Sunshine3601 Debbie, continue to have a great cruise.

 

I too, wish Crystal would come back in here.  Her wonderful trip reports set the bar high.

I feel for you. Give Charlie a hug for me. Tell him to hang in there and I am hoping for improvement.

I actually took the time to do a visit to my Symphony cruise thread yesterday. 
Glad I did because this morning at 12am you could start your registration and request your check in. Initially I was thinking tonight. 
 

Anyway the window opened at 12:10 am and we got the earliest time which was listed at 11:30-12:00. 
 

Catch you later. 
 

I have not thought of posting live from Symphony, there have been so many threads about her travels. and it seems the newest ships hold the most interest. 
 

Anyway. 
One never knows. 
 

Be safe.
