So sorry to hear about your cat passing.  Thanks again for taking us along with the new Glory going from across the pond to Her new home port.  We will be sailing a 3 day cruise over Memorial Day.  It was a last second decision.  Haven't been on Carnival in a long time.  

 

Thanks again for your review.

Made it home late Thursday. Got to the Parking Spot and the remote for my vehicle did nothing. Terrific. But I keep spare batteries in the glove box. The remote does have a pop out sort of key so I could open the driver door, but then a new battery didn't improve things. The vehicle battery was completely dead. Thankfully the Parking Spot has a ginormous wheeled jump starter (and compressor!) that they brought out and promptly got the vehicle started.

 

It seems fine now, so I'm not sure why it was dead, but will find out sooner or later.

 

Ordered for next trip - portable jump starter - check!

I suppose this is one way I can look at it, I’m not gaining any weight as I “enjoy” the food.

I see I didn't receive a gold star. I'll fix that injustice...

@BlerkOnewhere are you taking us next month?

Plans have been modified but looks like something is going to happen. Don't want to jinx it. But coming soon.

Today's lunch was basic - a Number 1 from the Deli, a fried boneless chicken breast with buffalo sauce, sans bun, with fries. I was going to ask for a side of bacon but decided to take a break.

 

Does the buffalo sandwich have a spicy coating?  Or do they use buffalo sauce for that?  Was wondering if this would be a good option for a picky kid who just wants chicken tenders for lunch.

I didn't notice any spice to the coating. The heat was in the sauce and I should have asked for more sauce. I thought the boneless chicken breast was crispy and tasty. I think it would work - just tell the kid it is a supersized nugget.

Thank you and thanks to the others. It happens. We have a lot of animals (and land) from large to small. We know we will probably outlive all of the current menagerie, but it still hurts when you lose one. Life goes on. There will be more rescues.

 

Meanwhile the two litters a feral cat decided to gift us with last year before we could catch her (now all are fixed), checking out a new cat tree.
