We can put it out at night and she steals it ALL by the next morning. Found out from a neighbor that she was feeding a nursery of babies. So pretty soon we’ll have five of these things running around here. Yay. We are having a lot of raccoons here on Hutchinson Island and seeing many squashed on the road everyday. There has been some swimming in our condo's pool - have had three trapped and carted off. We have been here for 5+ years and never have seen so many before.

Can’t wait to watch the backyard motion sensor camera after that! 😂 Thanks for the tip. We had one drinking from the hummingbird feeder. It helped to slow him down. We didn’t revert to grease.

Hopefully the motion sensor is a ring or something similar. That would be a great video, as based on squirrels, it will not give up easily.

Rare aring75 Posted October 31, 2019 Author #180 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Breakfast in the MDR this morning. They put out some Halloween decorations yesterday and last night. I’ve gotta say though, not too sure about some of them. 🤔 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be a great video, as based on squirrels, it will not give up easily. I somewhere have video where I caught the racoon and me verbally shaming him. It was prior to the Pam spray. Since we live in the country the few squirrels we have here have no idea how to eat from a feeder. They prefer the fields of corn here, where they can graze at their leisure. I wonder if Pam spray would work on chair hog loungers. When they return 3 hours later they sit down, and slide right off the lounger.😂 2 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am now wondering, "Can you shame a raccoon? And, what exactly was the comment that he felt was too far?" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went with a Roaring 20s theme so it would still be a little dressy. Turns out they moved formal night to last night. Mark is ecstatic that he got to dress up in his tux twice AND he gets to dress for Halloween! 😂 The things he does to make me happy. 😊 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare aring75 Posted October 31, 2019 Author #188 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Did the CAS behind the scenes Galley Tour this morning. Enjoyed it, but had a hard time hearing the commentary. Apparently, there was a competition. Wonder what the prices for the three most original pumpkins are? I’d totally buy one. Think I could smuggle it back to Miami?

cruisegirl1 Posted October 31, 2019 #190 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Thanks for the photos. When I looked at the menu, I was hoping I might see something like pumpkin pancakes. Royal Caribbean does a wonderful job on Halloween. It is almost as much fun on Halloween as New Year’s Eve. Can’t wait to see your photos of people in costume enjoy m 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We did that one in June and, so far, it’s at the top of my list of favorite cruises. 😊 I totally agree. Any Mediterranean cruise is fantastic and your cruise is at the top of my list of places to go which we have done many times. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joand452 Posted October 31, 2019 #194 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Finally caught up! We were on Anthem in late April, early May, and got one of those birthday cakes, too. Guess they're really celebrating all year! Looking forward to the rest, and Happy Birthday! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare aring75 Posted October 31, 2019 Author #197 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Lunch at Sorrento’s. Not bad, and I really like that they have Parmesan and red pepper flakes on the tables. Germaphobe pro tip - use a napkin to sprinkle the parm and pepper flakes. Especially if you eat your pizza with your hands (as you SHOULD! You’re on vacation people!) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare aring75 Posted October 31, 2019 Author #199 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Drinks at the Trellis Bar in Central Park. Getting into the Halloween theme. None of these appealed to us just yet, so we were boring. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grapau27 Posted October 31, 2019 #200 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Great photos. Trellis bar on Harmony and Allure was where I got our D+ HH drinks while sitting in Central Park at night listening to live music. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
