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

[brillohead]

Enchantment's boarding time has been pushed from Saturday morning to today at 3pm (departure pushed from 4pm to 6pm). 

I've never gotten to a port so late in the afternoon.... it feels so weird to still be sitting here at almost 11am and not at least en route to the port!

Has anyone been able to see the comet?  We have had rain and cloud cover so far.   Hope to see it when clouds move out in another day or two.

 

From Forbes……

 

Now you have me curious about what we saw last night in the western sky.
I do not know what it was. Extremely shining bright star. Thought it was a plane, since I saw it near MCO area. But it was not moving. And we said it's not moving, so it has to be some star, and left it at that. DH joked it was a UFO. Now I am wondering if it was the Atlas.
I see a lot these stars nearby and get all excited about seeing a new star and then they start to "move" 😉. But the one last night was NOT moving!

Not my picture but this was from Pawleys Island last night.  We did not see it but guess others in the area could.

Hi Lenny, good to see you checking in. What a cool story about the park and being in the movie. It is not looking good for the Mets right now but I hope the next game is better.

Today the Mets have their best pitcher .If the Mets win today the next 3 games are in NY.Nobody expected the Mets to win in 4.

Lenny, I’m not from Brooklyn but my DH is and was growing up there in the 50’s. I don’t know Brooklyn very well but I wonder if you ever crossed paths growing up. I don’t remember exactly where he lived growing up although he showed me a number of times buy I do know he wend to Sheepshead Bay High School. I know he would love to see that documentary when it comes out.

I went to Wingate HS .I had friends who went to Sheepshead Bay HS .

One graduated in 1961 and the other in 1962.

Ask your DH if he ever went to Rainbow Lanes Bowling Alley in Sheepshead Bay.I went there many times in the 50’s and 60’s.

I assume everyone has been having this problem today.  

 

It seems like it has been on and off for a few days.

Same here.  I either get the screen you posted or a 503 (or maybe it’s 502) Server Error.

Yes- I have, and it’s annoying because my brother is here and we’re brainstorming port calls for our Vancouver to Fort Lauderdale trip next October.

 

We are thinking about massages in Cabo San Lucas, which my husband is enthusiastically in favour of.

Yep, same here. I started thinking, what if they did away with CC boards? How would the regulars on here communicate?  I’m not all that vocal, but I am a regular reader.

We had an absolutely gorgeous weekend.   Temps 75 to 80 with lots of sun.   We got lots done.   Trimmed our crape myrtle that is getting really tall at back patio, trimmed our hydrangeas, rose bushes and others.    Washed our cars, shampooed rug in family room, only room in the house with carpet and a little fun...took the convertible out for a ride.

I'm exhausted.  Good night😊

Debbie, I'm exhausted just reading your post! Hope you're able to relax a bit now.  You earned it.

How many days is that sailing? What are the ports?

[BonTexasNY]

@lenquixote66 Lenny, thanks for updating us.  Good luck with the hand surgeon. 

 

Can you be a bit more specific about the Brooklyn documentary?  I know my Brooklyn born and bred brother-in-law would be very interested to view it once it's out.  Where is the park in question?

I am tired of being cold. I need a cruise before next March.

Yes, I was able to get a good nights sleep before a busy Monday at work.  

Getting chilly here, strong cold wind.  Temps expected to be a high of 56 Tuesday and Wednesday.   Burrr..I'm sure Eric will put the heat on, which seems too early.

I'm a northern boy. My recent cold intolerance is ridiculous.

I understand.  Seems every year I dislike cold weather more than previous years.

We love cruising in January.  Get away from cold and relax and unwind after the holidays.
