Several years ago I won a facial.  The whole time the gal never stopped talking product after product is needed to look “beautiful “.  I stopped the procedure and she told me, on my way out, the winning facial did not inclued the gratuities.    Tough banana.   

@ldog  I questioned why we were dropped off so far from the  AC check in and apparently that spot, by law, is the only place they are allowed to disembark.  .  

1979.  We we’re exited to go one our first vacation to the Caribbean.  The hotel dinner time was formal with dancing. So.. wanting to be in the TIME. We took the new disco dance lessons. Ready to show off our talent.     All they played every night was  Glen Miller.   Love his orchestra but not what we planned for. DH WAS NOT HAPPY. 

@kochleffelI turn my meds bottles upside down.  Whatever works. 

Just heads up if flying back to Canada.   The bus drops you off at the beginning of the terminal, it’s a long long walk to the air Canada checkin desks are at the other end.  Be prepared, last year no carts or wheelchairs at drop off.    This year there were carts. 

@VMax1700 that’s ok. As a former Brit the monkeys got even while making a deposit when landing on my head. 

Interesting 

Also the reference to trans-Atlantic. 

@wetterthanwater  sorry, would you please explain your reference to coffee mate.   We have used it for many years.  I don’t know the make in hotels. Possible several.  

Also take coffee mate.   Cream cools it down 

Only for cruising I take my favorite instant coffee ( one I use at Christmas to make Bailies. Yum.   Hot water and good to go.  

Many years ago spent 2 weeks in Manzanio, spell check,   Wonderful vacation to reach the hotel desk we had to take a funicular to the lobby. Then elevator to room that  backed on to rock.  

@daisy-mae  thanks. I knew that but slipped my mind at the time. That bottle of vodka was getting thirsty. lol.  

I bought 6 packs of tonic at several bars.  Just make sure they don’t give you diet by mistake.   It was about $20.00 per pack.   they were the small cans. Ridiculous.  

Cats have waiters , cooks, pedicure appointments, free laundry, personal on call 24-7.

I've heard that dogs have owners and cats have staffs.

If my cat was allowed I would be the one wearing the support vest.  I support him grooming, feeding, stroking, etc etc etc.  

Trans Pasific Sydney to Vancouver.  And 7 circle Hawaii cruises.  

Know how you feel.  Had doctor 40 years. Even delived babies in those days.   New doctor when answering his questions answers with “ well when you’re in your eighties =====.  Lokking for another one. 

Sort of.  .  I am my cats server. 

Yes it is.   

@TableGirl you say the price is good for a single,  then why am I paying double?     

After several locations the only noise was under the dive in.  At midnight.  

On the cruise before yours Kirsten was excellent and well liked. She was very knowledgeable about all her talks.  Also was very personal when off duty.   The best we have had on many cruises.  

@sandiego1  oh yeah.  I’ll join in.
