  1. I’m exhausted. We had a retirement party at work and since it was for someone in my department, I was the planner. It actually turned out very well I think.
  2. We stayed at the Hyatt Place Fort Lauderdale Cruise Port & Convention Center this past December. Clean, very friendly/helpful (Kierre), huge room, free breakfast. Lots of restaurants nearby. Sign up at the front desk for shuttle to the cruise port, $9/person cash only to driver. Parking is $7/night if you park all week.
  3. Not a discount, you get OBC depending on the length of the cruise. Yes you can get your OBC if you buy stock now, but wait until after July 31 to submit.
  4. We just missed you! We passed through Parker about 8:30am this morning on our way home from Lake Havasu City. Annie @marshhawk sent me a Jacquie Lawson ecard on Valentine's Day. Hope they are both OK.
  5. This one was put on by 34 P.I.T. kids (Pyros in Training): IMG_8526.mov
  6. We were just at the Western Winter Blast at Lake Havasu City in AZ. It was their 35th anniversary. We saw fireworks 5 nights, even an amazing spiral one (unfortunately I didn’t get a video πŸ˜”). Here is some of Saturday’s show: IMG_8489.mov
  7. It was $25/bag all the time last Dec on the Nieuw Statendam. Don’t remember a special.
  8. Yes. Turn on airplane mode then turn on WiFi to access the inTRAnet (you need to do this to use the Navigator app). Text only, no pictures. (And you can text iPhones at home.)
  9. In the summer 2022 Amsterdam’s Shiphol Airport was a mess! SO disorganized. I’m glad we were in Business Class or we wouldn’t have made our flight. 😳
  10. If you have iPhones you can use iMessenger. It works iPhone to iPhone, both on the ship and to folks on land. (You need the inTRAnet for this.) Text only, no pictures. Always keep your phone in airplane mode while on the ship or you’ll come home to a large $$ phone bill. Turn on WiFi to access the ship’s (free) inTRAnet to use the Navigator app. To use inTERnet you must log in to the WiFi pkg. If you only have minutes (not an unlimited pkg) you must log out or your minutes will be eaten up quickly.
  11. In May 1917 Our Lady of FΓ‘tima (Virgin Mary), appeared before three peasant children who were tending sheep near the village of Fatima, Portugal. Following the initial event, the children reported seeing the vision five more times, once each month through October. https://www.britannica.com/event/Our-Lady-of-Fatima
  12. It’s the same website. https://boards.cruisecritic.com/topic/2989150-buying-aarp-gift-cards-to-use-for-paying-cruise-fares/
  13. Happy Valentine’s Day to my Daily family. 😘
  14. We have an antenna. Years (decades?) ago DD and I finally got DH to agree to get cable TV. The guy came out, went under the house , tried to hook it up to the TV, and got shocked. It was an old TV (this was before flat TVs existed and it was very old) and we couldn’t get cable TV. DH said it was a sign. Then when the airwaves went to digital (?) we got a converter for the antenna. We got ALOT more channels. Well that TV finally went kaput so we got a flat screen TV. Still on the antenna. And now we have even MORE channels.
  15. Correct. AFTER you go through security there will be a sign and a person directing Haven passengers to the correct checkin. And then you will be directed to the Haven waiting lounge.
  16. Dragon characteristics: Lucky, flexible, eccentric, imaginative, artistic, spiritual, charismatic.
  17. I work with a wonderful TA. I let her know how much I’m willing to spend if an upgrade offer comes in. She knows me so if an offer comes in at or below my price, she will grab it and choose my cabin. If the offer is higher, she will contact me.
  18. I would LOVE to have a bento box at lunch. 😏
