I LOVE the Brickell photos. The books I want to write aren't going to be picture type books, but real reading type books... You can still buy one though, if you want. I just have to write them still... 18 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't like those biscuits much either. Of all the sumptuous cruise food options available: Biscuits are not a top choice! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare sid_9169 Posted January 18 Author #1730 Share Posted January 18 Just been chillin' like a villain here in the room waiting for the champagne to get cold... Once I pop the top, I've gotta drink the whole thing down in about an hour or it's lose it's bubbles without a stopper... 8 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have a champagne stopper that’s permanently in our luggage just for that reason. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare sid_9169 Posted January 18 Author #1736 Share Posted January 18 I went down to deck 8 to watch sail away from St Thomas... No phone. No pictures. No "review", just real vacation time... I plan on doing a lot more of that going forward this week. At a certain point in life you just have to savor the little things... At a certain point after that, you realize that the little things are the big things... Trying to figure out what I'm going to do for dinner now. I'm thinking possibly Guy's BBQ, since I haven't even walked through there yet... We'll see... 29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare sid_9169 Posted January 18 Author #1742 Share Posted January 18 By the way, if you ever want people to leave you alone while you're drinking, just get yourself a Charles Manson T-shirt... Or, maybe it's just me... 3 1 29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare sid_9169 Posted January 18 Author #1743 Share Posted January 18 One more from Raimund before dinner. After that, it'll probably be just champagne... 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you thought of putting the masks in your suitcase and your dirty clothes in the box? That way the mask have a hard shell to protect them? 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've been GREAT in allowing me to post my daily screed for years now. Honestly, I never had any plans whatsoever to be a "travel writer"... In fact, my mom has been telling me for years that that's "what I should be doing with my life"... (She doesn't even know that I do this at all...) For the longest time, I've been in search of a greater purpose for my life, and spinning my wheels here just isn't getting me to wherever THAT is... I'd like to write real books making real money, rather than try and entertain what amounts to 318 people... I've got at least three books that I want to write and probably "self publish" since I have no "connections" in"the business"... I don't even know where I was even going with all that, but I DO want all y'all to know I appreciate EVERY SINGLE ONE of you here reading today as well as in the past. If I do ever write my"magnum opus" hopefully y'all will read it as well... You know I would put money on your big boss having any connections you may need. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
