Paddington Bear tweeted this to the Queen today..."Thank you Ma’am, for everything."

Yes, the world is affected by this because she has been loved by so many. I find it hard to believe that she has been Queen longer than I have been alive. Yes, and as an American, I am deeply saddened.

Ditto. The Like button does not work here today. 😪

All the Queen’s four children are now with her at Balmoral Castle. Along with her grandson, the Duke of Cambridge. This is a serious situation. (I just read this in the news. How very sad )

I have my husband turn his underwear inside out and wear it a second time to save money 😉

I believe this is the shower curtain that those that have cruised on Azamara complained about. 😉

OP has said on earlier posts that she is willing to pay a premium price for a better suite. Move up discount does not matter to them.

I am not sure I understand this, other than according to prior posts from you stating their is no availability. If you see a cabin of your choice open up (check daily and often) then you just grab it and pay the asking price. That is what I have done prior. I would not count on them monitoring the move up, you just have to keep checking on it.

I have always preferred French wine, Italian coffee, and the men from either country. Something about those accents 😉. Merci/Grazie

Instant coffee? Nespresso Dark Roast in this family. Order over the internet and you receive your pods. Plop a pod in the machine and there you go. Misty, what is your address, I will send you some. 😉 In England do they do instant tea? I do not think so 😉 Coffee...Italians do it best.

Rio was one of our favorite places ever. We stayed at Copacabana Palace hotel and loved every moment. We were there in November.

Funny how we are creatures of habit. I looked at the Cooler this morning and no Mysty? Hmmm....I get a bit worried and thought I had better check in again to make sure all is OK. 🙂

Our cruise is only to the Caribbean and flying overseas is just too long now. We are on Lake Coeur d'Alene and love it. Now with no ski home, we will travel to ski and just booked a ski trip a month starting in Dec. We have a new boat and enjoying living on the lake again. Idaho is like living on a different planet 😉 Anyway, back to your dilemma...keep everyone updated on what transpires.

Wow, I did not know you are in AZ. Guess what...We moved to Idaho 😉 I was going to send you a note because I am going to see my Grandson in OC in Dec. and have Balboa Bay Club booked while there. We have not been cruising, however, we had a large credit with Celebrity and will use it on a cruise next November. Too busy remodeling..story of my life, Good luck on your larger suite endeavor. I think it will happen. It is amazing how things open up after final payment. xoxo

Hi Carol, It has been a long time 🙂 I upgraded to the PH on an Asia cruise. Instead of using the Move-Up, I kept watching the prices on this suite.. It kept dropping closer to final payment and I just paid what they were asking. However, it all depends on availability and when final payment is due. That is the key. I hope you two are doing well. xo

Alejandro is an excellent Celebrity agent. He is in Miami. The best.

Had Ladera booked for the Celebrity cruise I just canceled. It did look inviting. However, I think I would have preferred Jade Mountain resort for a private tour and lunch. Have you checked into that?

I have had my eye on a place called Harbor House Inn in Medocino. Just this past week showed DH photos and info on the place. It has a very fine restaurant on site, also.

I understand your dilemma. I cannot schedule anything during March Madness. Had to stay in hotel night prior to embarkation in San Juan while he was able to get it on his computer. Also, never during ski season, no Summers because we have a lake home, no Holidays, etc. April, May, Sept, Oct were remaining. That has been my schedule for years. LOL! Last year we sold the ski home 🙂. Possibilities may open up.

Also just musing....How about just an "H" for humans. That defines all of us, although we need a "P" for pets too.

Yes, but I think you are Irish? Warm, welcoming and fun 🙂

Not too difficult for me to have no clue what they are talking about. It Truly comes naturally 😉

Last night when I calmed down about it, I told my daughter about the pineapples. She said in Newport Beach where she lives, there is a neighborhood known for swingers and they put the pineapples on their front doors. Now when I cruise I will be looking for the pineapples and it kind of ruined it for me. I also love coconuts and hope nobody ruins those. Does a Pina Colada in a pineapple now have a special meaning too? Maybe we can all be just an "H" for humans. So much easier.

Funny Rick. I am a WASP and I think everyone figured that out by now ;-). I am just upset because now if I wear anything with a pineapple on it the swingers will be chasing after me. In Palm Beach most homes have these lovely pineapple plaques at their gates. I guarantee they do not know the "new" meaning either. Just think about the Dole plantation in Hawaii.....😢

OK, I am out of here. This is really more than I can handle.
