Rmf11699, I have to admit that I have thoroughly enjoyed the Mrs Doubtfire saga. I hope that it amused others as much as it amused me. I guess I should have ‘come out’ sooner, with a photo, but I rather liked being compared to Mrs D. And it did allow my imagination to run riot! (Sales of my pocket sized, collapsible, Vortex vacuum cleaner have rocketed since this blog!) 🤣

 

Thank you PaulS for your very kind words, and I am overcome by your compliments. I only hope that I can do the same again with Hawaii. 😉

 

Now, as you know, I have often pondered people’s CC names, and maybe rmf11699 would be kind enough to give us a clue as to what it means? I’ve managed to suss out a few, like AF-1 (Now that took me a while but I did finally get it! 🤣), but I can’t fathom out yours. Westaussie was an easy one, and I think cnd crsr may be Canadian Cruiser?

 

I shall be trying to locate my photos from Hawaii, as I’m not the most organised of people with photos. So, hopefully, I may be able to take all you Cruising Adventurers on another ‘virtual’ cruise sooner rather than later. Fingers crossed! 🤞

Yes, a thank you to PaulS. I was worried a war of words would start.

My handle is very simple. It's my initials and house address.

Y'all take care!

Whoever told you that you look like Mrs. Doubtfire has a vision problem!

OMG. Did you even read the original comment about Mrs. Doubtfire?

🎼  Time to Say Goodbye....🎶  (And to say Thank You!)

So for now, thank you and goodbye, from me (and Mrs Doubtfire - Dude looks like a lady!).

 

 

Thank you for the awesome virtual cruise and finally we get to put a face to the wonderful words and images.

In the meantime be safe and maybe someday we'll meet on the Lido Deck!

Good stuff Miaminice!

Can't wait to hear detail of the cruise!

Up, Up and Away! 🎶

 

...I still feel a sense of awe as this behemoth takes to the air. 

 

Being a pilot was to have been my dream job. Isn't the feeling of flight awesome!

I think Loucat beat me to the answer. I too would say praying mantis.

That cake looks awesome! Happy birthday Ellie!

We're playing "duck, duck, goose" to pass the time.

Video of water sloshing about in Hollywood Pool. Apologies for the finger at the beginning. It was such fun swimming in the pool when it was rough. 

Welcome back! We experienced similar pool action while on the Carnival Miracle back in 2014 on our Mexican Riviera cruise. The ship had left Cabo and was passing by the most southern tip of Baja Mexico and heading north to California. The only difference was they closed the pool so no swimming for us!

The answer has already been given for Woodstock.  Funny, this AM I read in our local paper that today is the 51st anniversary of the beginning of Woodstock,  Aug 15, 1969.  How cool is that.

Nice coincidence! I wonder if our host planned it that way.

Welcome back ellie1145! 1969 for Woodstock?

Beginning to wonder if Elle1145 got stranded in some port.

The cat seems as bemused as us by the situation.

 

That is definitely a look of bemusement. I've mastered that look.

Hooray! It is indeed. It’s from my favourite ride in Animal Kingdom, ‘Dinosaur!’ 👏

 

Hmm, I was thinking it was a quote from a movie.

Mr Google will help.....😉

I'm relying on pure brain power just like I'd be while on the ship!

No idea on the quote.

🎵   Feelin' Hot, Hot, Hot! 🎵

On our way back the guide takes us to the natural hot springs. It’s something I’ve never seen before, but here the water bubbles up out of the ground, scalding hot, with the steam rising from it. 

 

If you liked those hot springs you should come to Wyoming and see Yellowstone, home of "Old Faithful" and many other hot springs!

Last two questions, do you give up?😉

I'll try the Egyptians and trout (just a guess as I did not google)

Absolutely correct! 👍

And not to be confused with your other British pal Phil Collen of Def Leppard!

Anyone recognise the song?

 

Yes, from your British pal Phil Collins

I just realized something and had to go back to the beginning of your cruise pictures to double check, the ship is empty! Did you have to take pictures at 4 am to get images of empty venues, pools, bars and dining areas? Was the ship full?

Such language for my virgin ears! 🤣

I had no idea the "Love Boat" theme is played on the ship's horns! Makes sense since 😁 they are Princess Cruise Line. My favorite sound is the ship's horn when leaving port.
