I asked Jesus about Southern Comfort. He said none of the bars have it here.

Do they have crown royal?

Mikki- there are no 'good' or 'bad' topics here, just the Tribe, supporting each other while enjoying Sid's musings!

 

Your mom is in my prayers, and I'm thinking good, happy positive thoughts for both of you!

 

Enjoy Banff Springs Hotel! I was there once in early September and they had 2 feet of snow! Made the lake look magical!!!

Thanks Shaded Lady.. I greatly appreciate it.  I love The Tribe.. you guys are truly wonderful. I wish I wouldn’t have lurked for so long 😂.. I’ll try to take some pics.. if I don’t have a few too many!

Heading out to Banff today for my office Christmas Party.. it’s being held at the Banff Springs Hotel...mom is coming over to watch my fur babies. I’m looking forward to getting out of the city... Banff is really pretty this time of year. I just hope the roads are ok with all this snow.. oh well guess we’re used to it since we live with snow 7 months of the year or so it seems anyways 😂 Going to try to leave early today and hit a couple of pubs .. there is this one that makes its own craft beer... did someone say beer???? Mmmmmmm then some wine and a few martinis at the party.. hope I don’t make a fool of myself 😁

My mom was just diagnosed with breast cancer so I need to let off some steam...lost my dad to the stupid disease.. I’m not ready to lose her too. I’m taking her to the cancer clinic on Tuesday to have her staged and to find out what we’re dealing with...I have to stay positive for her sake.. she needs to beat this!  
 

Sorry about the rant... and now back to your regular scheduled programming....🤪

And @ceilidh1 don't forget about her!🤣

 

@AKR2011 welcome and I'm glad to hear you'll be starting a new job. I hope you'll be planning a cruise before too long.

 

@Mikki1 welcome to another Canadian. We have some snow, and now we're expecting freezing rain and rain tonight and tomorrow, followed by more snow! And enjoy Breeze, we did in 2013!

 

My tree is up and decorated but I still have to bake.  I'm drinking white sangria now.

Heather

Thanks... feels good to no longer “lurk”

We also admire Sid's meat a lot. Especially deedle. 😇

 

He does have nice meat! 😂

@MalleyCat - Thanks  I'm so looking forward to getting away from the snow and hitting the sun, surf and sand!  and of course Alchemy! 😂

@kpark895 - thanks for making a girl feel welcome.  😊  I love joking, drinking, eating, being supportive, complaining about whatever... I should fit right in!

Ugh its snowing again here.... sure miss Sid's cruise pics!  My next cruise is in 49 days on the Carnival Breeze.. but who's counting 😁  On the bright side, its my last work day for 2019 until Jan 2.. Yippee!  Only 4 more hours until I can have a beer!

Hi Everyone... another friendly lurker here.... I don't post much if at all with fear of getting flamed... as there are quite a few flamers here on CC... but had to chime in here to say I love reading Sid's reviews ...(and all the margaritas..lol)

I finally got caught up on this thread and have to say you guys are fabulous!  Love the sense of humor... I'm from Calgary Alberta Canada .. In fact.. I was on the Carnival Magic in Sept\Oct 2018 and saw Sid at Alchemy.. wish I would have said Hi..., didn't realize it was him until I started reading his review when I got back 🙂

Anyhoo,.. Sid don't let the trolls get you down... there are so many of us that love your reviews and this feed...Happy Friday!!

My firsts:

first platinum cruise

first time from Orlando

first time on the Sunshine

first Journey cruise

first time doing Chef's table

first 13 day cruise (even though I have done B2B's)
