Rare A&L_Ont Posted April 9, 2023 #90426 Share Posted April 9, 2023 (edited) Home now. Laundry sorted and ready to wash tomorrow. I have the Grand Canyon video ready to post tomorrow and Easter Dinner tomorrow afternoon at my mother in-laws. Lucy also met us at the side door when we got home. I have to say nothing beats your own bed. Edited April 9, 2023 by A&L_Ont 19 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first time I visited Israel we couldn’t visit the Mount of Olives . In Bethlehem we were told to not wander off and just go to the church of the Nativity and back to the bus. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We went around curves below walls loaded with blooming bougainvillea, and below the outer side of the road we looked down at the coast with little lights starting to come on. Then it was dark, and our driver put in a tape of Pavarotti dining Nessun Dorma. We burst into tears, because our hearts were squeezed so tight. You describe it beautifully. We're going to Taormina in May for a four day visit. Our DILs side of the family has a family 'no kids' wedding so we are going along to babysit our grandson so they can enjoy the wedding. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise, there is not much else there. No observation deck, gift shop or musem. Pretty much strictly an office building. Agree. We were able to see the lobby but it was a busy place with workers so we only popped in and out again and didn’t take any photos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Momof3gurlz Posted April 9, 2023 #90435 Share Posted April 9, 2023 Sunny, cool Easter Sunday here with temps in the low 50’s. We’re supposed to hit low 80’s later this week. We have the local kids & granddaughters coming today for dinner, and an egg hunt for the little ones. Ham will be on the table today at our house, along with mashed potatoes, carrot casserole and asparagus. I’ve mentioned before that Andy doesn’t cook (other than grilling) but he does make a fantastic carrot cake and that’ll be our dessert. Happy Easter to all here who celebrate, I hope you all have a wonderful day! 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Lionesss Posted April 9, 2023 #90436 Share Posted April 9, 2023 (edited) Good morning and HAPPY EASTER to all that celebrate. My life is the busiest and most fulfilling that I could have ever imagined. In addition to what used to be my daily routine, I recently added on the part time job of babysitting the granddaughter Mon - Wednesday. I commute on Sunday for the 4 1/2 hour ish drive and return home Wednesday night. The pay is priceless memories. In addition, we have an upcoming major event that in itself is so exciting that the anticipation is making these days drag on. Details soon. In other news (🙄), I celebrated Easter dinner here with the spouse yesterday, filet, cheesy potatoes, green bean casserole, corn, and Ceasar salad. I made enough for left over meal as well as a future freezer meal while I am away. Also, finally we got our taxes back. Last year was a busy busy year with all the investments, inheritances, house sales, lottery winnings..... on and on and on.......So as we waited the anticipation grew. I am happy to say that my retirement income and pre-paying some taxes quarterly, I only had to pay $77 to state. The federal return I opted to defer to offset next years lottery winnings (if the luck would continue). So now I wish all a safe and relaxing day. And as I drive, I have a signigicant time so I say my prayers, and I include all my friends here on CC Take care.

Rare A&L_Ont Posted April 9, 2023 #90438 Share Posted April 9, 2023 (edited) If you have time to spare here is the video of our trip to the Grand Canyon. I cut a lot out and it is still just under 15 minutes. You can see how low Lake Mead is even though it has gone up a bit, Hover Dam, The GC Skywalk, and a return flight over the strip. The one thing I found amazing is how green and lush even the dessert was after their rains so far this year. You especially see it in along the river’s edge. If you have any question I might be able to answer them. I also added some music so please turn up your volume. A direct link if it doesn’t want to play. https://youtu.be/Bt6CJHZ8B1o Edited April 9, 2023 by A&L_Ont 15 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess when you're in concert with Kenny Chesney though, you go first. We saw her on the Allure Inaugural out of Galveston...definitely a very talented young lady. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare aussielozzie18 Posted April 9, 2023 #90444 Share Posted April 9, 2023 @A&L_Ont superb video and excellent sightseeing experience for you all. How long was the flight time? Was there two passengers plus pilot in the front? Owen was in the front I take it. Did they assign you seating based on your weight or could you choose your seat?

Bob @bobmacliberty, Please help me understand... we're diamond on RC. We have to actually book a room in MGM, stay there, let's say for a night, in order to qualify to book a room at CP at a reduced rate? Thanks 🙏 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
