Being named Elaine, until Seinfeld, was rather unknown. Now I always get Seinfeld references. Guess it could be worse. I could be named Karen, Alexa, or Felicia. 1 19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare sid_9169 Posted May 24 Author #79 Share Posted May 24 With TSA pre check I breezed right through security, and I'm sitting at my gate almost two full hours early. I really wish I could sleep for two hours, but if I can't do it in a nice comfortable bed, there's no chance of that happening here. "C" is already on her flight headed to Ft Lauderdale... 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare sid_9169 Posted May 24 Author #80 Share Posted May 24 I don't think I posted this section already. If it's reruns, sorry... My port plans so far are pretty thin. I know that I want to visit one or more of the beautiful beaches in Aruba, so that's on my list. Also, we'll be in port until 10:00 there, so I may even try to have a nice dinner in shore. This will be my very first time to Bonaire, and it appears to also have some decent beaches, but I don't have a firm game plan there yet. I've looked into a couple of food trucks and beach bars at a public beach not very far from the port. We're only there until the early afternoon, so I don't want to stray too far. I've read that they have a little public bus system that's pretty easy to catch and cheap. As for Amber Cove and La Romana, I'll probably just call it a “sea day”, and enjoy the mostly empty ship. I've been to Dominican Republic a few times, and honestly it's among my least favorite ports. I'd even go so far as to say I'd put it down there with Nassau… 6 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare sid_9169 Posted May 24 Author #83 Share Posted May 24 Just realized that I forgot to add the ending date in the title. Should be June 2nd, not just June. Way too late to go back and fix it now. As careful I am, I'd make a terrible editor apparently... In other news: my chariot awaits. 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm determined to do whatever it's takes for me to make it till quitting time, even if I have to do everything myself... Hey Sid, just grab Chako's broom and sweep all day! On the other hand, all that sweeping and vacuuming may be what's causing his bathroom "mishaps" 🙄 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare sid_9169 Posted May 24 Author #85 Share Posted May 24 One final restroom break, and I took out a second mortgage on a bottle of airport water. The pre boarding scrum is about to commence. 2 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare sid_9169 Posted May 24 Author #88 Share Posted May 24 I'm in the plane, and my carry on stowed... They said it's a completely full flight, so I always stress about not being able to find a space for my bag. Once I do, then I can finally start to relax. "C" is somewhere between Atlanta and Ft Lauderdale now. 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah I say leave it sit, then we can all enjoy thinking of it as an endless summer cruise with Sid and the boys. 😉 1 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare sid_9169 Posted May 24 Author #95 Share Posted May 24 On the ground now in unfamiliar territory. Found my way to the rental car shuttle and I'll be there soon. Apparently "c" didn't bring her credit card, only debit, so they aren't letting her rent the car without it... Looks like it's going to be going on my card, cuz I've gotta get to Miami somehow. 21 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a good place to come to get away from traffic it's always horrible here in SoFlo no matter which way you're heading. Safe travels! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare sid_9169 Posted May 24 Author #100 Share Posted May 24 A few twists and turns later, and I finally made it to the hotel in Brickell. "C" went to find her hotel and get settled in. Pretty soon I'm going to need something to eat and drink. 24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
