Rare rafinmd Posted July 12, 2021 #5 Share Posted July 12, 2021 Thank you for the Monday Daily, Rich. Different Colored Eyes Day is kind of strange. Pecan Pie is too rich for me. I like Simplicity and the quote. Never been to San Marino. I'll pass on the meal. My alternative is Fresh Fruit Medley, Parmesan Crusted Veal Loin, and NSA Vanilla Ice Cream as served on MS Rotterdam 10 years ago today, my first modern HAL dinner. Nieuw Amsterdam will pass Eureka in a few hours. Off soon to rehab.

Mr. Boston Posted July 12, 2021 #6 Share Posted July 12, 2021 Thanks for the daily report and good morning everyone. I’ve only seen different colored eyes on a Husky, a little unnerving. Pecan pie is delicious and Simplicity Day honors Henry David Thoreau encouraging us to step back and think of ways to simplify our lives. King’s quote is so true. I’ll pass on today’s meal, I’d want to grill them and it’s raining, again. I haven’t been to today’s port and look forward to the photos, prayers for everyone on our list today and 🥂 to all celebrating a happy event! 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare puppycanducruise Posted July 12, 2021 #7 Share Posted July 12, 2021 Good morning. Thanks for the Daily Report. Interesting collection of days. I don't know anyone with different coloured eyes. Love pecan pie. I try to lead a simple life, but sometimes it's complicated. The meal suggestion sounds good. We visited the Cave Springs winery a couple of years ago - great tasting room. I think I need to go back.🙂 Hope the drink of the day is good too. Another port I have not been to, we've been to a few places in Italy but not Ravenna. Thanks in advance for the pictures. Prayers for everyone. Stay safe. 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have a great day, everyone. 23 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimgev Posted July 12, 2021 #10 Share Posted July 12, 2021 Good Morning. Thanks for the daily. I've seen different colored eyes in the Australian Shepard breed. It seems that it is fairly common in that breed. The MLK quote is so true. I actually made classic Italian Sausage and Peppers last night. It reminded me of my youth visiting the. Jersey shore and getting those great sandwhiches on the boardwalk. Stay safe everyone. Jim 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare kazu Posted July 12, 2021 #11 Share Posted July 12, 2021 Thanks for the Daily, Rich and our Monday smile 🙂 I didn’t know multicoloured eyes had their own day! Pecan pie is delish but very rich. Love Simplicity Day and seeing Henry David Thoreau celebrated. I always enjoy his work: Great quote by Martin Luther King Jr & yum on the Italian sausage. Nice to see a wine from Niagara in Ontario as the wine of the day 👍 Have to admire the strength of these standing up against Elsa. I figured they would have been flattened. We have been to Ravenna and it is really worth a visit. The mosaics there are phenomenal. Beautiful town. The ship “parks” quite a distance from the town. A shuttle is provided BUT it’s a long wait for the shuttle. There just aren’t enough to move people quickly. There are only a couple of taxis so if you see one, grab it. it’s well worth a few euros to avoid the long time standing in line waiting and getting to Ravenna sooner. I’ll take a look to see if I can find some pics. First, I need coffee 😉 Prayers for those on the Care list & for those that need them and 🥂 to those on the Celebratory / Shout Out list. Have a great Monday everyone!! Stay safe & don’t forget your 😷 31 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St. Louis Sal Posted July 12, 2021 #12 Share Posted July 12, 2021 Good morning all! Thanks to everyone who has a part in putting this Daily together, your hard work is much appreciated. Odd collection of days. Different colored eyes gets a day of it’s own? Pecan pie is okay once in awhile, it’s not a pie I ever bake myself. I seem to make things complicated some days 😉. I’m working on King’s quote. I love Rieslings and I think I’ve had a Caribbean cooler, forgot what’s in it. Not a fan of Italian sausage except on a pizza. Banner day for me, 5 girlfriends coming over for lunch! We have not been together in a year and a half. All vaccinated except one (she will be wearing a mask). Normally I’d prepare lunch, but that is not working for me anymore so we will be ordering in from a favorite restaurant. Sending prayers to all who need healing and strength 🙏. And raising a glass of 🍷for the celebrations. Have a great day everyone. St Louis Sal 22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grapau27 Posted July 12, 2021 #13 Share Posted July 12, 2021 Good afternoon and thanks for posting today's daily and care reports. I have never seen anyone with different coloured eyes. Pecan pie sounds nice. In sales I was taught Keep it simple stupid (KISS) and always look for the simple solution first in everything I do. Today's quote is good but nice if you can get a mix of quality and long life. It has been raining all morning and is still cloudy although for now the rain has stopped. Now cruise ships are being banned from Venice RCG are rescheduling to Ravenna which is disappointing. Not keen on today's food or drink. Prayers for everyone on the care list. Good luck with your rehab today Roy. Graham. 19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smitty34877 Posted July 12, 2021 #14 Share Posted July 12, 2021 Good morning everyone. We will be having more rain here,a lot more rain, with flash flooding warnings arriving on my phone this morning. People had to be rescued last Thursday from low lying areas of Yonkers. Fred the faithful dog has one blue eye and one brown eye. He and his Husky friend down the street share that eye situation. My eyes change from green to a light blue depending on colors I am wearing but that is not the same thing. I have never been a pecan pie fan but would love the recipe of the day. We have not been to the port of the day. Here is a picture of our Camilla gazing at her Dad. Terry Will try on my phone. CC is being mean again. 19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CJcruzer Posted July 12, 2021 #17 Share Posted July 12, 2021 We visited Ravenna in 20212 on Celebrity Solstice. Beautiful Byzantine mosaics in this city, along with Dante’s tomb. 34 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruise Suzy Posted July 12, 2021 #18 Share Posted July 12, 2021 One of the boys in my grade school class had eyes that were different colors. A more famous person with this condition is Washington Nationals pitcher Max Scherzer. His left is brown, while his right is blue. The condition is known as Heterochromia Iridis, 1 in about every 500 people have two different colored eyes. 15 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StLouisCruisers Posted July 12, 2021 #19 Share Posted July 12, 2021 (edited) Good morning to all! The sun is shining right now, but it's summer so you never know what a day will have in store for you. Pop up storms are exactly what they sound like. Pop ups! I don't know anyone with different colored eyes, agree simplicity is best, and love pecan pie. True, it is rich but just cut a skinny slice and enjoy. Agree with the MLK quote. I like Italian sausage but today's dish looks like it would be difficult to eat so I'll pass. Thanks to Rich for the Daily today, Roy for the list keeping, and Debby for the recipes and photos each day. Good luck today to Roy at his therapy. I hope you find it helps a lot. I also hope Cat is enjoying Iceland right now. It will be fun to see what she has to say when she's back home. I love visiting Italy but have not had a stop at Ravenna yet. I'll be watching out for an itinerary including it when things get back to normal in the cruise world. Hopefully someone here has some photos to share. Edited to add thanks to @CJcruzerfor sharing their photos as I typed. Have a great day! Edited July 12, 2021 by StLouisCruisers 21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cunnorl Posted July 12, 2021 #20 Share Posted July 12, 2021 Good Morning Everyone from a bright and sunny day at the beach Never saw anyone with 2 different color eyes. Interesting. I like pecan pie bit it is way too rich. Maybe just a little slice! We try to keep our lives simple especially since retirement. Doesnt always work. Have not been to todays port. a big thank you in advance for all who post pictures! Walked the beach last night. It was beautiful. I was looking out at the ships, there were 3. I wasnt paying attention and stepped in a hole someone had dug. The tide was coming in so I didnt see it. Well I fell and was soaked! Not hurt except my pride. Better pay close attention! Off to water aerobics. Stay safe and enjoy today 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
