  1. Things are starting off so smooth today you would think we are ice skating! Our check out was 11 so we had to take an early bus to the ship, 10:15. Our ship check-in was 11:30. We wanted to wait at the terminal rather than the hotel. It was 10:30 When we got off the bus and entered the terminal. Once we entered we were waved over to an elevator. Once we went up the doors opened and we were escorted to accessible check in. They checked our 5 party's papers then a guy took us pass everyone and escorted us to the waiting area. About the time we sat down they said diamond can board. We took our traditional noarding pic. When we boarded our muster station was on the deck near where we walked on! By 10:45 we were watching dolphins 🐬 jumping near the side of the boat. SO THANKFUL. Nice to be on board again!
  2. We have had a couple of challenges on this trip. We stayed at the Marriott last night before flying out. We had booked the correct hotel but wrong location. We spent an hour on the phone with Chase getting it all corrected. Hard understanding their accents. Sad thing is Marriott did not have a problem correcting it from the beginning. Today we checked my rollator in at the gate like we did last time flying. This time they said when we get to Houston we will have to pick up the rollator at luggage pickup and not the gate. When we arrived in Houston we wanted to make sure we were correctly informed so we asked a stewardess and the guy that loads stuff at the gate and both said we will get it at luggage pick-up. After waiting and hour at luggage pick-up they brought it down to us. It sounded like we could of got it at the gate. I will feel better when we are sailing away tomorrow. Let's hope tomorrow goes smoothly.
  3. I just posted a pic of it. Our Solo cruiser with us beat us here and went there so we went to Katie's on the other side of the Harbour House.
  4. We made it to Galveston and checked into Habor House. We like it. It is at Pier 21. We are about a 5 minute drive from where RC boards. We could see Allure from our room. And a pic of Harbour House this evening.
  5. Laurie, you did a great job again! It was nice to see you finally had my favorite drink, Peach Daiquiri! I will be thinking of you when we cruise out of Galveston Monday drinking a Peach Daiquiri again. This will be my first cruise in a wheelchair and it was inspiring and uplifting to see you showing I can still enjoy! Thanks for taking the time to share.
  6. Is it King Arthur 00? I use a 00 specially made to make pizza at 550⁰. It's called Americana. It's blended to brown up at 550⁰. I bought a 25 kilo bag awhile back. I broke it up into 5lb bags. After about 10 bags were done I looked at my counter and it looked like I was part of a drug cartel! I need to try it on noodles. Happy birthday to Micheline.
  7. Yes! It's a removable cup holder. I am so thankful to get it. A nice item is the chair cushion is an inflatable. You can adjust the cushion by pumping more air in it. I also love how it can tilt back and release the weight on my butt. That will be nice if I am in a situation where I am in it a long time.
  8. I am seeing the rain on the news! Lots of flooding. A person in Brooklyn is sharing a video showing water coming in the door of the bus she was on.
  9. I won't have a choice next week. I have been using the elevators already. I caught covid once after a cruise but I am sure I caught it will riding home for 2 hours with 2 others in the car that had covid. I am not concerned catching it any longer.
  10. One time visiting Mexico City I bought some kind of headache med. After I flew home I noticed it had codeine in it. I wondered what would of happened if they would of checked it at the airport.
  11. I agree. From the beginning of the show I was wanting to see some off. By the end, all of them. What was really aggregating was after 90 minutes of show one ask to go home! This season can only get better.
  12. The 1st is a short on of Caden riding with me. IMG_1015_1.mp4 The 2nd is Kenzie and I racing Caden. IMG_1014_1.mp4 After racing I told Caden we need to have a 3 mile race. He is to fast for short races.
  13. About the only time I have the opportunity to eat corned beef hash is while visiting a Windjammer. I'm looking forward to eating some in a few days! It's neat to see that there are some snow-capped mountains. We saw a bunch in early May. Thought they would be gone this time of the year.
  14. I have been having fun on it. We took it outside where I was giving Caden and Kenzie rides. It can go up to 6.1 mph.
  15. Is this your 1st? I have had so many I have lost count. Once I gave up drinking black tea I have gone long periods without getting them. There are different types of stones. What helped me was drinking pineapple juice. Also Sharon would mix Cinnamon and nutmeg and load them in capsules. I would take 4 twice a day. I understand how painful they can be. I hope you pass it soon.
