It's good that you have a couple days at sea to rest. 😊

Which resort did you go to in Nassau?

Oh no, that stinks. Like you said glad nothing is broken but this sounds painful. Are you able to get around with crutches or need a wheelchair?

Try to email the CEO, Michael Bayley's email is mbayley@rccl.com He has assistants that check his email and help with resolutions. Due to time differences it may take a day or two before you get a response. Good luck! I hope Mom and future baby are doing well. Congratulations!

The first time I went to make stuffed cabbage in my 20's I didn't realize I had to put the cabbage head in boiling water to peel off the leaves. I had a whole bunch of torn leaves so I did "unstuffed" stuffed cabbage. It does taste just as good so sometimes I make this version vs. the actual stuffed version.

I make mine with both ground beef and rice. Do you like with both ingredients?

All of my cats have bathroom curiosity. Eric doesn't like being stared at so he makes sure to latch door but then they sit outside the door waiting for him. Eva is fascinated with the shower and will also go in as soon as I come out.

The stuffed cabbage looks delicious. Reminds me I have not made that in quite awhile. Your "squatter" looks very content. Hopefully he still has a family caring for him. So sorry to hear about Antony. Take care and Stay Safe💖

My exact thought!!

Yes, it was Ballsy to ask. The Realtor gave this whole song and dance about how we should help these first time homebuyers with funds for closing costs. She stopped her pleading when Eric replied "they are not first time homebuyers they just sold their townhome in a nearby town". When the buyers signed the contract I had looked online their current address and info on their FB and Linkedin pages. Did she forget the internet existed or maybe she figured since it was an Estate Sale we would just be happy to close.😁 Eric drove by this morning and said they have begun demo and have all the carpet from the bedrooms and window blinds in the driveway for trash as well as wood stakes for their fencing. Guess they really didn't need that $2,000 credit😇

Yes, you can have 4 beers or 4 cocktails of your choice at any bar at any time of day. Just let bartender or server know you want to use your voucher(s).

I heard about this book release but have not heard if it is any good. Please let me know if you liked it when done. Being from Bucks county I may have to put on list for Santa.

If anyone liked the TV Series Frasier there is now a revival of the series on Paramount+ We just watched the first 2 episodes and really enjoyed.

That is a Great price! What ship are you sailing on? We sailed on Serenade in Sept for the repo cruise and booked the beach club for $79. We said that would probably be the max we would pay for it but I just booked it for $98 (DH doesn't know yet 😇) for a future Anthem sailing. My sailing has Hideaway beach on sale for $30. I was undecided on giving Hideaway a try at $30 or do the beach club as we love it there. I may book Hideaway while on sale (if it let's me book both) and decide as we get closer to the sail date.

We left our happy place and heading back home. I forgot to mention. We had closing on Eric's Mom's home on Thursday afternoon. The buyers realtor tried to get a last minute (hour before closing) $2000 credit towards closing cost. Not sure if her buyers didn't realize how much actual closing costs would be but we said No and closed. Now that is sold Eric has to drop off the PA Inheritance tax forms for the Estate at Register of Wills office at the courthouse this week. I think we have told his Brother how probate of an estate works at least a half dozen times but he continues to ask the same questions. Uggghh!!

Hello from LBI. We decided to come down for just the day that way we don't have to pack our sheets, towels, etc. to stay the night. We arrived around 9 am. Boy, we sure do have great tenants (other than can opener lady) everything is in tip top shape. I feel like we don't have to do a thing. Eric put away lawn/patio furniture/flower pots and cleaned the grill while I mopped floors and cleaned the fridge (bathrooms were left spotless). We do not have any winter tenants this year so we will come back down early spring and power wash the house and decks and clean windows. We just had a fabulous brunch at Terrace Tavern. I had Jersey shore shakshuka made with hot sausage bolognese - delicious. Eric had a crab meat omelet that had lots of jumbo lump crabmeat. It is a beautiful sunny day, calm seas (I forgot my phone when I went to the beach - sorry no photos). Next I will head to my favorite used book store at Bay Village and turn in some books I read this summer and see if they have any from my list to read. I love the island when it is empty and the majority of traffic lights are off (just flash yellow). So peaceful but it is a chilly 55.

We have been to the beach club a bunch of times of the years. We always enjoy the area. You feel like you are at a beach resort. Plenty of chairs and umbrellas. I have never seen it full even with 2 large ships docked for the day. They will serve you drinks at your lounge chair, just raise the little flag on the lounger and a staff member will be right over to help you The towels there are so much nicer than those blue towels. Floating mat is included. The beach area is very clean and easy to get in and out of the water, no big drop offs in the sand. The swimming pool is also very nice and is accessible for anyone with mobility issues. Bathroom and I believe I saw showers also available within the club. The food is Terrific. When you first enter the area they have a hostess that will make a lunch reservation (or you can make a reservation ahead of time while onboard your ship). We picked 1 pm but then decided we were ready around 12:30 and had no problem with getting a table. When there in September we had grilled lobster and filet mignon and they brought out extra lobster--no additional charge. I do not remember the name of it but we split a fabolous chocolate brownie desert (it was very large). We normally don't eat that much for lunch so we had salads for dinner that night.

I agree Herran is fabulous!! I know the server but neither of us can remember his name. Great guy. That's so sweet she gave him her toys and coloring books 😊

I witnessed someone being removed from a blackjack table about 2 years ago (unsure if card counting or something else) but was told the following night by the casino worker that he was banned from the casino. He wasn't sure if it was forever or just the remainder of the cruise.

I would not do it. You can pay full price for chops at something like $57 and get a 8 oz filet mignon (lobster tails have been rather small lately) and go buy yourself a glass of champagne a lot cheaper than paying $99

I fully understand. We usually stop by WJ or Cafe for a salad and try not to look at any other food until dinner😂 Unfortunately, Tutti salad has not returned. Magic 8-ball says Outlook not good for Tutti

You would be fine with purchasing soda pkg for one person. When we cruised with our Son Chris and his Wife Donna we bought the soda pkg for Chris only as Donna doesn't drink soda. No issues at all. Maybe you want to book a lunch at a specialty restaurant. Basically same menus and much cheaper. Just a thought😊

IMO, that's a great price. Selling for $58.99 on 2 of our future cruises.

I did purchase beach club for $98 last night. We were there in September for $79 and said probably wouldn't pay more than that since there are nice free areas but we did enjoy that area so I grabbed it and will see if we keep it. I already bought lunch at Jamie's on national Italian day in October for $15. I suspect they are not releasing all sale prices at once and will monitor some other items.

May be on sale tomorrow as they start their pre black Friday sales. If you already purchased and find it cheaper you can cancel and rebook at lower price.
