Tomorrow night he has a rep hockey tryout game. He made the first round of cuts. Lucy last night. Here are some of the items purchased from Costco today. I guess all could be used at football and hockey games, but the foot and hand warmers are my main pic. Doing some prep work for a week Monday. 😁 Congratulations Owen!!!!! Have a great cruise, Andrew! Four more days!! Whoot whoot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckynana Posted September 22, 2022 #71979 Share Posted September 22, 2022 Today is our granddaughter Ava Jude's 17th Birthday. She began her day by taking her Road Test this morning, and getting her License!!!! Great Birthday present. We were supposed to go to Ava's Field Hockey game this evening, but due to the rain this afternoon, I'm not expecting the game to still be scheduled for 5pm. We knew that Ava is the Captain of her Field Hockey team, but we didn't realize that she is also the Captain of her LaCroix (sp?) team also. I guess our daughter thought she'd told us already...🤔 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a five day sailing for our return to cruising. Fights were on credit so it isn’t terrible.

We got some rain at Nachi Cocum for about 10 minutes and we happened to be eating lunch under the pavilion so by the time we finished it was sunny and clear. 3 hours ago, c-leg5 said: Was that your first time?

We might do Paradise next time just to say we did it but the vibe at Nachi was incredible so laid back. Thanks, just wondered. We enjoy occasionally but have lots of favorites and like to ring the changes. It isn’t our favorite for a cruise ship day, where we are already eating and drinking too much, but like to go occasionally on a land based vacation! You will find a big difference at Paradise Beach, which we would only do with grandchildren although facilities there are very clean but too busy and loungers too crowded for us They are really pushing the AI now and it would be expensive for a family, with water toys. I am glad we are passed that in the main! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandwiches are good, maybe slightly above average as far a convenience store sandwiches go. But I really enjoy ordering them from the kiosk. Between types of bread, size of bread, to toast or not to toast the bread, toppings, etc, there was an endless amount of ways to customize a sandwich. I think I enjoyed the ordering process more than the actual sandwhich. Speaking of sandwiches, is Quizno's still in business? I haven't seen one in ages. Used to like them as well. I believe they are but I have never been to one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The husband of one of my cousins is a Psychiatrist who was going to Poland to speak at a conference .My cousin Linda went with him because she wanted to go to the village that her father and my mother grew up in to try and find out if we had any family still alive.This was in 1990.She and I were talking by phone every night for many weeks to put all of our memories of what our parents told us of their siblings.She brought childhood pictures of our parents but could not find anyone who ever knew the family. l 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am glad we are passed that in the main! We have been to Paradise Beach quite a few times. We loved it and never moved on to try any of the others, mainly because they were the only one that had a pay-as-you-go option instead of A.I., which is better for us. It has never been crowded when we've been there, but I'm sure that depends on how many ships are in port. The food is really good at Paradise. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
