Pretty sure you don't need to explain your parenting techniques to strangers in an online forum. Speaks more to them feeling it necessary to comment to you about how you're raising YOUR child.

Self control is a challenge for my wife in the casino and me at the bars while on a cruise. (I don't have an answer to your question.)

Whoa! Been a while since I’ve seen you on here. I always enjoyed reading your reviews. Hope you’re well.

Sid’s next meal.

We’ve stayed in the Brickell area previously before a cruise, and are staying there again for the Celebration 2 weeks from tomorrow. I know there are a lot of bars and restaurants in the area. We are getting into Miami at about 5:00pm on the 24th, so not a lot of time for sightseeing for us.

Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

I’d fit right in to find an urge to drink outside of a pub.

Uh, I have no clue what a tealight is.

Not really. They’re probably spending about $50 USD for a few Fireball shots that should cost about $3.00 USD (I’m purely speculating on the liquor and the cost - but NOT what it would cost me at home to make my own.)

Pretty sure I hear that same phrase from my wife when she packs for a vacation….or any other time for that matter.

Is that supposed to be a biscuit and gravy? If so, it's not like any biscuit and gravy I've ever had.

Looked like a great alternative port. I’m certain we couldn’t do as much walking as it appeared that you did.

You're keeping him in line.

Pulled out the Celebration deck plans and re-read your review so that I could follow along for my upcoming cruise. Thanks again for the very detailed review.

Close, but not near as bad as Progreso.

I’m tired just reading about all of the walking. My sea day would be spent sleeping on a lounger all day with a beer bucket by my side.

So many to choose from, but I’ll go with the very first cruise. Driving to the Galveston port, I was not prepared to see the massive size of the ships. I was in awe. As it turns out, the 2 ships in Galveston that day were on the small side - Rhapsody of the Seas and Carnival Elation. My wife and I will be boarding one of the larger ships in just a few weeks, the Carnival Celebration. I’m sure I will be in awe at the size of that ship.

Wait…..B has been in the room for the rest of the day at 3:30pm your time….sleeping for most of that time until morning?

There’s a jack aster in every crowd.

That temp better be the norm for our room on the Celebration.

Money well spent. Thought I read somewhere that you both were stuck in middle seats. That must have been on the flight that was canceled.

9.5 hours in a middle seat? Brutal!

Thanks for the reminder that I’ll have to spend a small fortune for my wife’s luggage for our trip to Miami for the Celebration cruise. Glad I cashed in all of my remaining Aadvantage miles for the flight itself to offset the bag check fees.

Hard pass on Buccee’s for me ANY time I pass one. Way too much traffic. Worst one I ever passed was the one on I-10 just east of the Mobile tunnel as I was headed to Destin. I felt like going ballistic in that traffic, and I wasn’t even stopping there.

I’m not about to post a golf tan picture of my ankle/foot. They can both be covered up by wearing shoes all week. Won’t happen with me, as I’ll be wearing my Oofos flip flops all week.
