  1. You’re probably having sleeping difficulty Bob because your thinking up humor for the mornings Daily Early Edition.🤪
  2. No but that is the way they used to make them. So for several years I had to remind Hal bar staff. Please no soda water.
  3. On one of our Australia ports of call we went to an animal refuge that had a lot of animals including lot’s of kangaroos. I was sitting on a bench and there was a young man with a child next to me. Guy looked familiar and I finally realized who it was. I was sitting next to Keith Urban as he shared a candy bar with whom I presume was his daughter. As we were headed back to the van people were talking did you see him. I said who? Keith Urban!
  4. You can be specific with the bartender how you like your margarita. Such as not too sweet etc. Years ago they used to put some club soda in margaritas. Always had to remind no soda water.
  5. Good morning! No problem sleeping here and until my coffee kicks in maybe should have slept longer. It’s overcast but a warm 71 and we have a fifty per cent chance of rain around eleven this morning. We will have an early dinner tonight as our small church group meets at 6:30. It will be nice seeing them and sharing our thoughts on this week’s study. I didn’t realize until yesterday that our Eurodam cruise starts on Easter Sunday. We have been to Hobart on the Oosterdam and thanks for the photos. Thanks for the postings and featured post. Enjoy the day and stay safe if in stormy weather. Bruce
  6. Happy to hear that you are enjoying your cruise while some bloggers are complaining about everything. Can’t imagine why they would continue on? Some folks just can’t be pleased.
  7. Last fall we did a Scenic river cruise in France. Crown Royal was on the menu but beverage manager stated “ no matter how many times we have ordered Crown we never get it. Recent Azamara cruise they had some but stated it’s in short supply! Couple of cruise bloggers who like Crown have stated a couple of ships they have sailed on didn’t have any. I googled if there was a Crown Royal shortage and indeed there was back in 2020 during the pandemic along with other name brand spirits. One would think production would have picked up by now but shipping around the world still has back logs. In Europe with the cut backs and rationing of natural gas there has even been a bottle (glassware) shortage. The world is still playing catch up and some industries do it better then others.
  8. Morning. Forgot to turn on the air purifier in our bedroom last night and woke up early all stuffed up. Tis the season for my allergies. Looks like another pretty day with temps in high seventies. We’ll go to church at noon to attend Ash Wednesday Services. Like today’s quote and I would like to sample today’s Bordeaux. I have enjoyed following all the World Cruise Blogs of cruisers on the Zuiderdam. Sounds like the Hal of old and the crew is making it an extra special experience. Thank you Sandi for getting the Daily started. May all of you have a great Hump Day.
  9. Roy. Stay positive. Doctor feels the test is necessary and maybe it requires professional technicians to get it attached and working correctly. As very evident here on the Daily our readership spends a lot of time having our failing old bodies tested, probed and treated. When our children went off to college we easily got by with only one car. As we have aged we require two automobiles because we have conflicting medical appointments. Prayer’s the test gives your doctor information he needs to get you back and feeling better. Keep the faith!
  10. Good morning! No problem sleeping here! My trip to the dentist yesterday was short and sweet but it wasn’t a cheap visit! Laundry did not get done yesterday so will give that another shot today. Already 67 degrees out and we’ll enjoy mid seventies most of our daylight hours. Hard to believe tomorrow is the start of Lent and Ash Wednesday. This year is going by fast. Debbie your flank steak recipes look inviting and delicious. Thanks for your time in searching and posting great recipes for all of us to enjoy or at the least drool over! Prayers for all in need. Bruce
  11. Thanks for taking us along on your Azamara Pursuit cruise. Bon Voyage!🛳🍾
  12. Good morning! It was good to sleep in a bit this morning after binge snacking all day watching the longest Daytona 500 in history. Race cannot end on a yellow caution flag and there were plenty of them at the end. DW has informed me that today we start South Beach Diet meals again. @erewhon whom we met on our New Zealand cruise I had no idea of the devastation of your recent cyclones. Glad your safe but prayers for your fellow citizens and country. Have a dental appointment to fix a slight crack in a tooth that should be a quick in and out procedure. Plus it’s my favorite day of the week! Laundry Day! Thanks for all who keep the Daily running and may all of you have a great week.
  13. I was told the same thing and remained quiet until today. Frequent posters here on CC should leave instructions to let us all know of their passings! We have become family!❤️
  14. Many may remember that Carol was the original OP of Hal Dry Docks, Charters and Private Group Cruisers here on Cruise Critic.
