I was just to a concert, on Sunday, that was all Disney tunes for 2+ hours. Of course, the only reason I was there was because my granddaughter was singing. Her group only had a small portion with a melody of about 15 Disney tunes. What I found really annoying was the lady seated behind us who thought she should sing when the kids were singing. Her off key accompaniment kind of ruined part of the performance for us. And, as they get to the part of the Mickey Mouse song that says “see you real soon now” the lady announces “ok, we are all going to the bathroom now”, as their group gets up to leave mid performance. I just said “Thank GOD!”

Go to your profile, and under Upcoming Cruises, select View All. If they are not there, scroll to the bottom and choose Don’t see your cruise? add it now. -
Catching up this morning while enjoying some jets on my back in the hot tub. Yesterday was a long day of yard work and outdoor cleaning. More to be done today as we get ready for a Memorial Day party. This morning, I have to take Ricky to the vet again for another blood test. Hopefully this will be the last one. He seems to be doing well.

We did parasailing from one of the vendors at Orient Beach, but just don’t wander too far to the clothing optional section. For something different, there is always The Yoda Guy place. If anyone is interested in movie props and memorabilia, this is interesting. Nick Maley has done a lot of special effects models for Star Wars, Terminator, and many other movies, and many are on display. Nick is usually there after 10 each day, and if you pay for a tour, you can meet and talk with him and get a photo with him. The tour is an hour or less. This is Nick with one of his Yodas (with part of me cropped out so I don’t get confused with Yoda) A Yoda in progress Stormtrooper Terminator A couple more exhibits

We got this in the mail yesterday, reminding us we can soon book our Disney dining. I guess I will need to get out the list I made earlier, to see if I need to make any changes. We fly to California, three weeks from tomorrow, to pick up our grandson and start Summer of Fun 4.0. Yes, a week at Disney will be part of that fun!

It was a beautiful, sunny day for a change here. A good day for a surprise party, and our friend was surprised. Afterward, we headed out to find a nice, shady trail to get our daily exercise. This one was nice, because it was about five miles of shade. Before you know it, and we logged over 22,000 steps. Tomorrow is our granddaughter’s concert, so we will be listening to her singing all afternoon.

Or you could arrive back after scheduled departure. I can’t believe it has been 10 years since we did Panama Canal on Coral, but we did the remaining locks by ferry boat. It gives you a much different perspective of the locks, vs being high up on the cruise ship. If you are interested in what it is like, I covered it on page 2 of this review. I would suggest you move around the ship as you go through the locks to Gatun lake.

Imminent RCL Entertainment Cutbacks

Agree that the patent will be owned by the company, although it will list the individuals on the patent application. My son is listed as inventor on several patents his company holds, and he was a patent agent before climbing up the corporate ladder. It would be highly unusual for the NW to hold any rights to it. -

I haven’t been on for a couple of days. Took everyone to Shakespeare’s Castle for Mother’s Day. My granddaughter had a goal to beat the number of deserts she ate the last time we were there, but she fell short with only four. They had reservations for 1,300 people, so it was busy. Susan is away to have a get together with her four sisters, so I have been playing bachelor for a couple days. So much for having some relaxing time to myself. Too many things to get done t our house, as well as at my daughter’s house. Then, as an unexpected bonus, I got to take my grandson out to dinner last night, and tonight I get to take my granddaughter out. If I were to guess, she will probably choose Thai for supper. She loves it, and it usually is not a top pick for her mom or dad. Loving all those Japan and cruise pictures.
