  1. I feel the same way. I DVR the game and watch it when I get back home.
  2. Yes they went down real good. Not hungover at all today but just tired. I did a lot of driving as the wedding was an hour away. Also since the puppies were in their crate the whole time they had a lot of energy when we got home. Went to bed around 10:30pm but Lizzy woke us up at 2am wanting out to do her business. Had a hard time going back to sleep.
  3. @Ourusualbeach I hope you post some pics our way of you and John's cruise. Looking forward to hearing about this great itinerary.
  4. Thanks Joe, Yes it was a weird day for sure. I cried at both. I think that's a first for me a funeral and wedding all in one day. Today I'm really tired but that may because of the really good rum punch cocktails they had last night at the reception. Malibu Sunrise. Malibu Rum with Cream of Coconut Captain Morgan Dark Spiced Rum Orange Juice Grenidine Cherry garnish Very tasty. Pineapple Juice
  5. Busy day today with emotions. This morning we said goodbye to the mother of one of my life long friends Ron. This afternoon we will attend the wedding of one of my coworkers for 40 years son who I’ve seen grow up. At the funeral we got a picture taken of the 3 amigos. We all 3 are drummers who went to school together and lived together for a long time. I met Ron(right) in 7th grade when we took drum lessons from the same teacher. We played together in a Percussion Ensemble through the conservatory of music’s gifted student program for 7 years. He and I went to college together also at the conservatory and were fraternity brothers together. I met John (center) as co drum teachers for a music store in town. We became very close and John and Ron and I moved to a house and lived together for several years. 3 Drummers John playing with George Benson and his wife R&B and Grammy Nominated singer/pianist Oleta Adams, (also sang with Tears for Fears) and Ron long time Broadway show percussionist for Starlight Theater. And me off and on as a professional drummer before going into broadcast television. So great to reconnect. Lifelong drummers, brothers and roommates. Friends for life. Now onto the wedding.
  6. I am confident that we will meet up again. The Soggy Dollar will be a repeat destination for us. That's what I thought too. I could watch that all day long. Thinking of you Dani and hope and pray for your safety.
  7. Now that’s a great position to be in. Love Jusy Collins. My parents were also huge fans. Cheers to you tonight!
  8. I love lobster bisque. Did he like it and did it actually have chunks of lobster in it? Worst Lobster Bisque I’ve ever had was in Chops.
  9. Now that’s a great position to be in. Love Judy Collins. My parents were also huge fans. Cheers to you tonight! Edited to change my fat fingers type.
  10. Now that’s a great position to be in. Love Jusy Collins. My parents were also huge fans. Cheers to you tonight!
  11. Thank you Andrew. I will investigate this option for future cruises that stop at St. Thomas. That’s what I was thinking. Yes staying with cruise excursions is safer from a time factor. Remember? We were going to go to Tortola together and then there was the pandemic.
  12. Just saw we were switched. Same itinerary but in reverse which I think is ok. Before we had two days at sea at the top now it's our last two days which I think will be ok. The St. Croix port will be a longer stay instead of 8am-5pm it's now 7am-6pm which I think it's good. Perfect Day is a shorter stay instead of 10am-6pm it's now 7am-4:30pm. The big change time in port is Tortola. We want to do an excursion to Jost Van Dyke and White Bay to go to the Soggy Dollar Bar. Originally it was 7am-3pm now it's 12pm-8pm. I don't know if this is good or bad. In one way we can have a good breakfast and then get ready to go over. The bad may be by the time we get there it may be really crowded. Anyone with experience at Soggy Dollar better in the morning or afternoon?
  13. Just watched a great timelapse video on YT of a cargo ship at sea for 30 days. It's ten minutes long but has some amazing footage of thunderstorms, torrential rain and busy traffic. The night time video is also amazing looking at the stars. Check it out !
  14. Ok sorry my mistake. I can't keep track of everyone's cruises and where they originate. Good price I would take that.
  15. @A&L_Ont Question for you?? When you did your excursion to Jost Van Dyke (was that a Royal excursion by the way?) what time were you in port and what time was the excursion? Since our cruise got switched from Voyager to Adventure originally we were to be in Tortola from 7am-3pm so I assuming a morning to early afternoon excursion. Now we will port from 12pm-8pm. I wondering if an excursion to JVD in the afternoon is a good thing or bad thing? Thinking what will the crowds will be like? What was your experience? Thanks for your help. Sea Dog
  16. Galveston right? Embassy Suites looks great as always I don’t know if we tried to book there or not. I like ES. Did you get a decent rate?
  17. YAY! Finally we got moved over on our Eastern Caribbean Oct. 21st sailing which includes Tortola. The port stops got switched around and I think I'm ok with it. Before we had two days at sea at the top now it's our last two days which I think will be ok. The St. Croix port will be a longer stay instead of 8am-5pm it's now 7am-6pm which I think it's good.Perfect Day is a shorter stay instead of 10am-6pm it's now 7am-4:30pm.
