The Fleet Report and Daily for Monday May 22nd, 2023
aliaschief replied to richwmn's topic in Holland America Line
Good morning. Starting the morning off at 70 and will reach mid eighties. Watched the PGA and NASCAR, or better known as the Kyle Larsen rout. He won all three races this weekend. We enjoyed our Betty Crocker grilled Southwestern shrimp salad for dinner. I did post the recipe once before. So good. It’s Monday so it’s laundry day but not much as I did a couple loads last week upon our return home. Laundry bulk is down as we are back to wearing summer attire.👏🏻👏🏻 We we’re at Geiranger last year and it and country is so abundant in beautiful scenery. Time for second cup of coffee. Thanks for The Fleet Report and featured post. Have a great safe and healthy week. Bruce- 75 replies

The Fleet Report and Daily for Sunday May 21st, 2023
aliaschief replied to richwmn's topic in Holland America Line
Morning everyone. @dfish Debbie, last night I finally had the opportunity to grill your chicken honey mustard recipe you shared months ago. It was very good. Thanks. Church services at eight and we haven’t planned anything as yet for today. Maybe more cruise planning which is always part of the fun of cruising. Good planning produces great adventures. Always amazes us how so many folks embark onto the ship without a clue as to what they plan to do. Rich thanks for The Fleet Report and Tangiers pics. Prayers for all on Care List and good for you on Celebration list. Have a great Sunday and week. Bruce- 42 replies

Good morning! Had a good nites sleep. We are back in our regular groove and it’s good to be home again. We spent a lot of time watching some You Tube top ten things to do at some ports we will be visiting on our World Cruise. The planning and sharing on the CC Roll Call is picking up. @superoma Eva again I’m so sorry about your Dad and that you had to discover first hand. He led a long life and hopefully his preparation for his passing will help you and family with his estate. We have an appointment set up in July to set up new wills, trust and estate planning. It looks like a nice sunny day with temperatures reaching in low 80’s. Might visit the neighbors pool after some Saturday morning chores are completed. Thanks Rich, Sandi, Debbie, , Dixie and Ann for your faithful features and to all that contribute to the Daily. Have a great weekend, act like a millionaire and book yourself a cruise and be very careful if bike riding is still a pastime. Bruce- 69 replies

Good morning! Currently 70 degrees with a forecast high of 83 and a 50% chance of rain. As I mentioned on a late post, on yesterday’s Daily our ladies deep cleaning crew did a fantastic job. They moved everything and cleaned under furniture and appliances. They have been hired. I believe I got my needed prescriptions done and they should be ready Monday. My favorite sport is NASCAR and I will enjoy watching the annual All Star race from the historic newly renovated North Wilksboro Speedway. We have had fish two nights in a row and haven’t decided what’s on the menu for tonight. We are trying to lose a few pounds before our cruise so we are abstaining from wine and booze and low carb meals. No shaky symptoms and have already shed four pounds. Thanks Rich and all who contribute. Have a great day. Bruce- 99 replies

The Fleet Report and Daily for Thursday May 18th, 2023
aliaschief replied to richwmn's topic in Holland America Line
Well the mother and daughter cleaning ladies turned out to be originally from Sao Palo, Brazil and have been going strong since 8 AM. This is a deep clean and they are definitely doing that: everything has been moved, cleaned underneath including large items like dressers, appliances and even the fridge fridge and it’s vents. The daughter is married to an active duty USAF pilot and Air Force Academy graduate. Our house will be spic and span tonight and they will definitely be hired for two cleanings a month. We hit the jackpot with this great team.- 78 replies

Good morning! Visiting relatives is a couple days late. I got quite a few things done yesterday including a visit to Men’s Warehouse for some new shirts and pants. Then we went to Beals and got some more clothes for upcoming trip. Today it will be medicine inventory and whether I have enough to get me through June. Currently 68 degrees with a slight chance of some lite rain with a forecasted high of 81. New York City is one of the best Sail In’s and Sail Away’s in cruising. Have done it twice. New house cleaning lady and sister will be arriving in an hour. Do hope they work out as we miss our former cleaning lady who retired this spring. The new ones are formerly from Great Britain so maybe I should serve a spot of tea. Thanks Rich for the Fleet Report and so much more. Bruce- 78 replies

Good morning. Back on Central Time and slept late. Wonderful! We dined out last night Al Fresco with beautiful views (see pics) overlooking the Bayou. Pretty much had to dine out as we need to go to the grocery store. So it’s time to get busy as I have many things I want to get done today. Have to admit I was a bit surprised we were already on page three but soon found out the problem. Welcome back @richwmn Rich. Don’t have to answer but I’m curious did you have much of a weight gain on World Cruise? One of my concerns on my up and coming World Voyage. Have a great hump day everyone. Bruce- 81 replies

Just a quick hello. Packing up and hitting the road. A four plus hour drive is ahead and not what we usually do in celebrating our 31st wedding anniversary. Thanks for the report. Bruce- 82 replies

I asked HD on recent Eurodam cruise and it didn’t seem like Starlink was going to used any time soon. Experienced Starlink on another cruise line and it was fantastic.

Good morning everyone with wishes for a wonderful and healthy new week. Our daughter and husband return this evening. They had quite the vacation. Touring around San Francisco, Pacific Highway, Los Angeles, Grand Canyon and a two night stay at the Bellagio in Las Vegas. We are ready for a restful vacation at home. Phew! Thanks Sandi for getting the Daily started and showing your we have been everywhere photos. Time to get grandchildren up and moving. Bruce- 106 replies
