Sadly, the info centre is closed due to Covid. Had a delicious lunch outdoors at the cafe with views over the harbour & city. Then walked all the way back to our car and thankfully the heavens didn’t finally open we were on our way home. And there’s the city in the distance! What a beautiful walk! 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just happened to be visiting at the time . There were over thousands of these covering 23 miles of paths. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dani negreanu Posted February 12, 2022 Author #48260 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Well, it seems that Burj al-Khalifa had a bit of remorse after driving us crazy with the online booking… This morning, while waiting for a guy who will perform our PCR test, DH remarked: “such a clear day for the Burj, pity about the tickets”, his email pinged…. surprise, surprise — our tickets!!! “Someone” was looking after us and didn’t let us buy them on site yesterday… I really don’t know what messed up their system with “booking failed” [took a screen pic just in case we were charged without tickets provided] and the tickets mysteriously appearing after 24 hours… After the visit we tried for the first time eating at “Five guys”, about which I think I read here… Then we limped slowly to our hotel, in the hope to rest and get out in the evening, but we were too bushed and called it a day. That’s one of the reasons I like cruising — if your tired, you’re not going back to a hotel room… and there are sea days in between to rest those aching feet… Pics from above, a nice cake thinking of Lisa’s b’day 2 days from now ( @A&L_Ont, Andrew hoping all your ducks are in a row 😜), and trying to show to Mimi ( @jagsfan) the transparent floor of the Frame. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn’t going to take the Oxycodone but I had to last night. I just took a Tramadol and will probably take another oxy before therapy. Right now leg is so tight I can’t move it as well as I did yesterday with the Toradol. When I had surgery on my broken ankle I couldn't put weight on it for 6 weeks. When I could finally start to walk again it was very stiff. The PT said to try rubbing vitamin e on the scar tissue. It did help. This might help you when the wound heals. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mo&fran Posted February 12, 2022 #48270 Share Posted February 12, 2022 WE will be in FLL tomorrow foe week 3 of our 4 week cruise, a Western 6 day cruise. The following week , an 8 day Eastern, and we are scheduled for Labadee. So far, it has been somewhat cool and very windy, except for today, nice and warm. We will be off a week, and back again. At this point, the 8 day is scheduled for Nassau, not Labadee. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanleyandGus Posted February 12, 2022 #48271 Share Posted February 12, 2022 I’ve been reading along without contributing, so best wishes to Greg for his recovery, Graham is on holiday again (and Pauline is lovely, as always), Dani is on vacation, thankfully, and Andrew is at home, like all good Canadians 😁. The pictures of Australia are very tempting- I might be able to overcome my aversion to things that want to kill you to make the trip! Anyhow, I am now addicted to Wordle. Thanks, Lenny! 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way. I am the world’s biggest chicken when it comes to heights. My children and grandchildren don’t take after me. Here’s my son Scott in Chicago. I don’t remember which skyscraper has the glass floor. And my granddaughter Hannah, on the world’s highest swing…at least then! It’s in New Zealand. The wonderful adventures are wasted on me…though I did a hot air balloon in Kenya. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
