Norweigian Encore looks fun and could keep you all very busy. I believe it leaves from Miami. March 2025 look reasonable for the higher suites when tips, dining packages and drink packages,, internet are all included.

Don't think Josh Allen will even feel his elbow on Christmas Eve in Chicago...........The high is 9 degrees with 24 mph winds with even higher gusts forecasted, Wind chill factor will be -12 degrees for the game or lower..😲 Might be tough to pass, will just be both quarterbacks running the ball. Better hope Allen can handle the hits in the cold. Eagles play in Chicago today. Going to be balmy for the game today 24 degrees with 14 mph wind for feel like temperature 12 degrees. 😎

For all those with indoor cats ! https://www.facebook.com/reel/799804217754754/?s=single_unit&__cft__[0]=AZVkK56WxfkOxW07hsDCVADgCLXYN02pSIOBQVYx6OKyh8FUkCudFycf8EHm72KeVRKXMfDIU92nnI6iIpzG79ySdxrYEk4JVJCYQ8j9ysBWlKuwPChzNGcbrDjFLSKHVo6gGK0lvIPprNrzBE26PgAVPVEdweNYGlGC1d6vIGWlmBf5j79O48rHO3NAF5D7uIw&__tn__=H-R

Thought I read somewhere that parts are unavailable to fix it, they would need a whole new screen.

and I see the mystery continues................ just how many were onboard.... nobody knows..........

This is where we got the idea to use the brick on the flooring too. This guy was one of the first to use these bricks on the floor. https://pinehallbrick.com/paver-tiles-create-a-beautiful-and-functional-floor-for-bath-and-laundry-room/

Brick on the right was for fire place and walls. The one on the left is for the floor. It is a full size brick when looking down from the top. We wanted the standard size bricks for the floor. Each kind is only 1/2" thick..............Need only a half inch thick so the orange backing and the brick will equal about 3/4" to match our hardwood flooring height that the bricks mate up with. Bricks on fireplace and walls, look almost the bricks on the outside of our house. Thin Clad Millstone https://pinehallbrick.com/?s=millstone They don't make the Millstone in the size we wanted for floor, we wanted a standard size brick for floor and this the closest they had so we went with it. The floor is going to be Old Mill Pavers https://pinehallbrick.com/?s=old+mill+paver+tiles https://pinehallbrick.com/products/old-mill/ 1/2" thick Pine Hall Brick Company is about 90 miles from our house here in Virginia. https://pinehallbrick.com/transform-your-interior-with-a-brick-floor-using-pavertiles/ Pine Hall is one of the only companies around that makes these 1/2" thick bricks to use indoors. On the floor I will be using a sealer, but no sheen, it will still have a flat look just like the bricks look now. My Wife didn't want a shinny looking floor.

I'm figured you may have time to either enter the "Amazing Race" or "Naked and Afraid" Each show would pretty much handle your expenses. The later you could just rough it for 3 weeks in the jungle and then sail back to the USA

Yes, Most likely we are going to color match it to the cabinet colors eventually. The color of the cabinets is called Egg Shell on Maple wood. The grill is pure white, pretty much only way you can buy those 24" x 24" grills. Also waiting for the front panel of that drawer below the Microwave. For some reason that wasn't shipped either. Still waiting for 5 other door panels for around the fridge and over by the stove area that didn't have the right divided pattern on them.........If you look real close you may see the messed up ones that have to be replaced. All the cabinets/doors on the island were correct. The door panels on the Microwave side are all correct.

We are lucky we have an unused fully finished in-law suite in the basement with a full kitchen. If not we would have been outside on the deck with the grill I guess. 😲 It is a lot of work. Think that was part of our problem with the amount of time this job has taken. It's all good though because they are doing a great job even if it is taken longer then we have hoped. Here is the picture of the large wall they took down, also got rid of that pony wall you can just see to the right of that wall near that barrel thing you see on the floor next to the pony wall. Here are some before pictures of how it was when we bought the house. That was the previous fireplace....... This is the kitchen downstairs we have been using

Not exactly, still need the bricks on the floor, tile back splash and counter tops, hardware on cabinets. and appliances installed. Hoping to be done before we go to Disney the 3rd week of January. 🙂

So many experts on this thread on passengers counts. It's amazing.

Saw a YouTube video of that ride, not so sure we are up for that one..........If it's like the Expedition Everest I know it's not for me.

Last time she posted was July 19th..............Doesn't sound good 😞

That is correct no one better then the Disney Imagineers. https://sites.disney.com/waltdisneyimagineering/our-projects/ We are headed to Disney for 10 days on the 20th of January. 6 days in the parks and 4 days at my Wife's Aunt and Uncle's house in Bradenton, FL on the West Coast.

Have you every been to Disney in Florida. It's really amazing the projections they can do on Cinderella's Castle.

The one coming back leaves from Barcelona.

Guess it might depend on some people's lives. Everyone is different.

I don't think I could stand being away from home (reality) that long. I just looked on one site, is the World Cruise actually sold out? all 4 legs?

December 2023

Glad I didn't waste my time watching any of the shows this season then. 🙂 I thought years ago the show had run it's course.

Yikes sitting through 2 hours of " The Voice" was enough last night, but 3 hours of "Survivor" No thanks !

He was funny on the Kevin Hart show (Celebrity Game Face). So young too.

Panama Canal(Full Transit) ! It's simply an amazing cruise. Caribbean gets old, don't care if we ever take another Caribbean cruise again the rest of our life.
