We’ll have too many bags I think to take a train. We actually will get off in Portsmouth, then I want to spend a couple of nights there or Southampton, taking the train to bath and maybe Cotswold? Then we’ll spend a week in London before flying home. We’ll skip Stonehenge but will do a day trip out to Windsor. Oooh are you doing the Brilliance cruise? I'm looking at either that one or Independance MIA to SOU Both good ports for a transatlantic and prices are good too. I've never known RC to end in Portsmouth before 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One full day immediately before the cruise and a few hours after we disembark. The rest of the time we are doing a roadtrip of Vancouver Island. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The old growth forests are amazing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DH asked our guide of the Lighthouse when the last shipwreck was. Back in the 1898 was reply, a paddlesteamer carrying 32 crew and 30 passengers. One of the survivors was a baby. She lived until her 90s and her ashes are scattered at the wreck site. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time to put that koala onesie back into my carryon and embarrass the heck out of my kids - with my 🐨 hugs at the airport. Have a great trip and visit with your kids! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Sea Dog Posted April 14 #119385 Share Posted April 14 Second this week our power has gone out on a beautiful day. Don’t know if everyone turned on their AC at the same time but this is getting ridiculous. And our lines are all underground. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My cable did not save earlier episodes with On Demand. We watched it on Hulu which shows anything on fx the following day without commercials. We just watched a very good movie yesterday American Fiction, highly recommend. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes outages happen for no reason, that is immediately and visibly known. Might have been a transformer caught on fire, a car taken out a power pole etc… We had a huge wind storm Friday night here and lost power for almost 12 hours. There was outages all across the province. Our generators fired at all 3 houses and things were good. Unfortunately there is clean-up to do again at all locations. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been very windy here the last 3 or 4 days. Never lost power as far as I know but something tripped the 50 amp breaker on our hot tub. It has happened before and the Breaker has been tripped one other time but that is when the heater element went bad and shorted out. I replaced with new a while ago and has been running fine up until today. After I was finished mowing the grass this morning, I just checked the hot tub by taking the cover off and noticed the control screen was black meaning the hot tub was off...............I thought to myself oh no the heater element went bad again, but nope put the breaker back on and as of now it is running fine and has heated back up to temp. So so far everything is good again. I'm not sure if there was some kind of power surge or what? Also want to add a few pictures of our apple tree this year..............Lots of Blooms this year compared to last year when we hardly had any apples........Last year I think the tree got hit with a hard late frost and lost almost all of it's blooms(frozen). Below: This is how many apples we got from the tree in September 2022, last year in 2023 we only got about 1 of those crates.........So very disappointing.

Yes 4 posters in this thread have that color with some really beautiful furniture. Turned out my painter just painted the walls that color, ceiling white. For such a big price I assumed he was painting everything, but I'm not so sure what it needed, havent been there yet. Brownish grey, it goes with everything. Lol it's very agreeable. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
