Check them off people: - restroom pics - check - margartias - check - weird food items/porn - check - hand drawn maps - check - Sid's shirts - check You are on a roll! I hope to add some new items to the "check" list soon... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re right. I love malted milk balls and runts...but I won’t eat them out of a bowl like that. They need to be out of the package. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare sid_9169 Posted September 21, 2019 Author #260 Share Posted September 21, 2019 Wow, that was the most comfortable bed I have ever laid down on, ever... I didn't want to get up at all, but there's this "thing" that I'm supposed to do today... It only took me ten minutes to figure out how to work the coffee maker this time! It's looking like it's going to be a beautiful day here in Miami. I can see Royal Caribbean something of the seas off in the distance... 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare sid_9169 Posted September 21, 2019 Author #262 Share Posted September 21, 2019 I've only ever checked a bag with the porters one time on a cruise... I'm making double sure that it makes it... Actually, the case itself is more important than the junk I have in there... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare sid_9169 Posted September 21, 2019 Author #263 Share Posted September 21, 2019 It rained pretty hard a few minutes ago. They say that there are supposed to be showers on and off throughout the day... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It always pops back open after I put the cup in. And they make small coffees. When I visited my mom last year she had one and I had to make coffee four times because I drink half a pot...or a full pot of my smaller Mr. Coffee pot. This year when I visited she had upgraded to one that had a big water basin. I didn’t realize I didn’t have to pour water in for each cup. I poured it in the wrong spot and it went all over the counter. Edited September 21, 2019 by Saint Greg 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare sid_9169 Posted September 21, 2019 Author #268 Share Posted September 21, 2019 It looks like the current wave of rain is about to pass on by... I'm going to walk somewhere and try to find some breakfast. Two tiny cups of coffee weren't nearly enough fuel for this machine... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare sid_9169 Posted September 21, 2019 Author #269 Share Posted September 21, 2019 I went out to find some breakfast once the rain let up... This is one of my favorite views in Brickell... I love that curved building. It looks like these d@mn e scooters have made their way down here to Miami... It's not so much the scooters themselves, but the people riding them... I don't really have anything against millennials per se... Well, maybe their hairstyles. Or, the music they listen to... Or, their political beliefs... Wait. What was I talking about? Oh, the e scooters... Yeah, I just don't like 'em... There, I said it... 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
