I think Ragnar might check with Mrs Ragnar before inviting y'all, us, AND Ho-Hum and Blondie to his house for an all inclusive weekend....🍸

Hmmm. how to we contact each other?  We need Sherlock Holmes here. This is me if you can figure it out 😉

Prefix 9** next is for cell only 9** final 6282 for texts (not 925 or 923 for home phone only) Which of my friends will find me? Only my buddies need apply.

Well Contessa, I have the area code figured out, but there are several 9xx cell phone “exchange codes” that cover your area, depending on provider.  And 924 is shown as being for landlines.  I’d have to ping 5 or 6 cell numbers to hit yours.  And I’m not sure the burly dude down the road from you would appreciate being called Contessa...

 

So I need another clue.

 

Or you can just email me at ragnarcc at that Google email service.  To make sure it is actually you, I’ll respond with an email containing a code phrase that you can then post here on this thread.

Anyone else find that they have fun but spouse does not?  In my case it's itineraries they don't like or certain excursions.

Perhaps because we don't cruise that often, but we tend to do all our negotiation long before we book.  For instance, I'd like to do the Eastern Caribbean but my beloved doesn't have much interest in a sun & sand vacation....so it's not going to happen in the foreseeable future.  Once we've agreed on an itinerary we both like, then we start negotiating on excursions that we can agree on.  Occasionally we'll agree to split up; I'll do something strenuous while she goes shopping. 

 

She admits to being pleasantly surprised occasionally - she didn't expect to like Ephesus, but it blew her away.

I tend to do the planning but I share details with the spouse.  Sometimes descriptions of the activities are not good enough.  But you can always email Viking.
