Way too late. They started slow and never caught up. We still had fun though.

Tonight’s action, Blue Jays baseball. It’s on Apple TV tonight, so watch for us behind home plate. We are at the game tomorrow, regular broadcasting, in the same area.

From what I read that was quite possibly after tax. I’ve read in a few places that the number was closer to $200K. The truckers have also shown their appreciation with a horn salute when she departed the stadium after the concert. A g|ame changer for everyone.

Just catching up on Below Deck Down Under. The Captain handled this as best as possible. I can’t believe that the male and female crew member didn’t see their terminations coming.

You could not have said this any better.

Unfortunately it was 20 minutes of cue waiting and 40 minutes of trying to get tickets. None in our hand. The same tickets now are 2-4 times more on StubHub than what they were originally selling for on Ticketmaster. Just the way it is.

Not normally but never underestimate the power of Taylor Swift. Remember, she “broke” Ticketmaster with her American concert release and her concerts are an economic boom to the communities she visits. She is doing 6 concerts in Rogers Centre (Sky Dome home of the Blue Jays) over 2 weekends. These are her only Canadian dates, so they will be hot tickets. I know someone from NY state that saw her this concert series, who will see her again this November in Brazil when she goes home for a visit. She tried to get the presale for Toronto but had no luck.

Be thankful the Canada Goose isn’t there. 😀

Lisa is excited. The presale text from Ticketmaster just came through for the Taylor Swift pre-sale tomorrow. She has her fingers crossed, as the concert is November of 2024.

Forget the silly cruise ducks, we need to create the fad of cruise bracelets. That should cover the cost of Bella 2.0

We stayed at the Downtown Marriott a few years ago and it was great for us.

I second that comment. Baseball has been consuming our lives lately. Happy Birthday @FromSea2ShiningSea.🎂

To further Jane’s accurate comment I have these two images. From the pier to the transfer area is the red line. These are smaller shuttles. The blue line I marked goes from transportation centre to Chill Island on a larger Disney style tram. They run frequently and stop at a few locations along the way.

No cookies today folks. 😆

I agree with you. One doing this leads to others. i know someone who just sailed on Wonder and the chair hogs in this area were horrendous. Maybe they were all suite guests but who knows.

Exactly Jimbo. We played them yesterday and won 8-2. They had to beat us twice today and they were running out of pitchers, with 4 burned up. We had 1 burned and 7 available from Friday to today. They have a chance to exact some revenge at the year end local tournament. They’ll be gunning for us, but they also have a donkey for a head coach, and their worse one was booted out for their association this season. Edit: the worse one was coaching his son (the pitcher) from the sidelines all game.

Posted 5 months ago doesn’t necessarily mean the cruises happened 5 months ago. I guess you could ask on their YouTube video how long the actual sailing happened. I tend to think this was a one off situation, due to a booking issue. I remember reading about a one off situation where a guest was issued Star Class perks to their Sky Class cabin because of this type of situation.

Owen’s team was won today 4-0. With that win they are now moving onto Provincial’s. Owen made 4 catches for outs in the field today, 2 being the last 2 outs in the final inning. He didn’t make it onto to base, but he earned some RBIs in this game. 7 full innings were played in 1 hour and 20 minutes. For perspective a full 7 inning game at this age lasts 2 hours. Each team used just one pitcher. Theirs threw 104 and ours was 56. They had just 2 players that made it onto base, the furthest got to second and the other only to first. My team job, pitch counter.

💯. Great examples for this thread are 😉😂🙃

Our nephew’s team was knocked out today, after 3 games. They eventually ran out of pitchers. Owen did go out and help the last pitcher warm up while the catcher was gearing up. Baseball from 10:15 to 6 today was enough. Tomorrow there’s more, but hopefully just one game. 🤞

So what do you do after you watch Owen’s game? Go watch your nephew play obviously. Owen’s team is in the finals tomorrow, with no loses yet. 💪

Another weekend another tourney. This time a 4 team local one to determine who goes to Provincials. It’s a double loss knockout tournament. First game was a win, last night. Next game is today at 12:30. If we win we play tomorrow morning in the finals. If we lose, we play again 30 minutes after that game ends. If they lose they are done, and if they win they play tomorrow in the finals.

Traffic at the bridge narrowing I bet. I hit Cincinnati headed south once at 4:30pm. Ugh. An hour added for me too.

I did go to towns where people were murdered frequently I wouldn’t be able to go to Detroit to fly to the cruise and Orlando, Fort Lauderdale or Miami which are our normal cruise departure ports to get on the cruise.

Lucy just rides lose in the truck. Edit to add. One of our old farm cats didn’t like the cage. We stood the cage on end and lowered her into it.
