Yes, yes, yes!  Packing will resume after my morning walk tomorrow!  

Thank you again, Debbie..the fun will begin as soon as I walk onto the ship, and then when I get my first drink on board.  I have a nice drink list to take care of!😉

Any idea what the first drink will be?

I'm planning on trying an espresso martini with Baileys that OB enjoys.

I think I'm going to start with the Miami Vice😉

I'm pretty boring..I mostly drink Vodka and Tonic, Bloody Mary's, Sangria, Baileys, or Beer.

With my list, it's going to open new Horizons for me..lol!

Thank you, John.  I'm pretty excited.  It's been too long!

I really don't know how to post pictures.  I know Graham had posted how to do it, 🤔

I really should try to expand my Horizons..🙅‍♀️

Miami Vice gave me brain freeze. One and done. I preferred Pain Killers for day time drinks.

@Sunshine3601 Except for the Cherry tomatoes, I got my tomato seeds started today!  I am glad I started the pepper seeds earlier.  I have only had a couple peppers pop up so far but I expected them to take longer.  It was good we were not gone long.  When we got back yesterday I checked the peppers and the all the water had already wicked out of the bottom tray.  Good thing the cells did not dry out.

There's not much chatter in the roll call as moment  ,  hopefully it'll pick up. 

Last time I looked on the ports website there was only us and a small ship in Santorini that day which will be amazing. Last time I was there, there was five or six big ships in the bay and Oia was packed

Mykonos, you can buy tickets on the Dock to get the boat over to Delos which is interesting and should still have time to look around Mykonos  

Rhodes I've never been, so we'll probably stay in the town

Have you been to Akrotiri?

We’ve been a couple of times which is probably once too many, but it is a fantastic archeological dig. 
We still had time to tour a winery, but not much else. 6EB18925-87FA-49B5-9922-8E8E62C8199B.thumb.jpeg.433c196db874b453600b45244a773e4b.jpeg

I found that place to be fascinating. That da r that they had indoor plumbing that many years ago. The preserve of the ruins is breathtaking.

Glad you can relax now and get ready for a great time.

@Ocean Boy  One thing I didn’t mentioned but you may already know, my s21 came with a USB-C to USB-C cable but not a charger.  Your phone’s charger now is probably not a USB-C charger.   There are also settings for fast charging and super fast charging.  To take advantage of these settings you will need a charger made for the settings.

The S8 does use USB-C. The cable I have is USB-A on the charger end and USB-C on the phone end. I'll just keep using the same charger that I have. I "think" it is a 25w charger. My S8 will go from 15% to %100 in less than 90 minutes which is fine for me.

 

I do think it rather lame that Samsung does not include a charger. My preorder includes a $150 Samsung credit. I'm thinking about getting a wireless charging pad that I could use for the phone and ear buds. The only wireless charger I've ever used is the one my car had built in to it.

Good thing you got home just in time to give the babies some water.  I plan on getting my peppers started this Sunday.

I will keep her in my thoughts for all to go well with injections and hope she feels better after receiving.

Does she think she will drive after the car is repaired?  Baby steps

Thank you so very much,Debbie.Yes,she will drive.We have wonderful neighbors who have offered to take us to doctors but we do not want to impose on them.
