It was calm coming into the port. The ship was rocking a little before the port, but not to much. Edited September 14, 2023 by ReneeFLL 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mo&fran Posted September 14, 2023 #103153 Share Posted September 14, 2023 Yesterday marked the last Chemo treatment that was scheduled. The radiation treatment is 35 treatments, 5 days a week. The first 25 are full treatments, based on a cat scan of the affected area, Those 25 have been completed, along with a new cat scan to determine how the last 10 treatments will be handled. The tumor has pretty much disappeared, but I am having considerable difficulty swallowing, so primary nutrition is by feeding tube. I have had minimal weight loss, so the feeding tube is working. Still shooting for a sail date of Oct 7. I have never mentioned this before, but my favorite Pinnacle benefit is breakfast in Chops. Don't usually eat breakfast at home, but just to walk in, have a waiter at your table to bring some French Toast, sausage, potatoes , some bacon. And a glass of iced tea. Yumm. did not have to fix it, or clean up after 31 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks good. @Coralc Sorry to hear about Bobby. Yes they were SO good. That frosted thingy on top is coconut milk frosted. The server suggested their Pina Coladas. Mine is non alcoholic and very yummy. $15 each. And we shared the food. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Sea Dog Posted September 14, 2023 #103156 Share Posted September 14, 2023 Boy do I feel like a idiot. I just fell for a Facebook ad scam for Tommy Bahama. While on FB a week ago I saw an ad for End of Summer sale for Tommy Bahama. After going through the website and looking at the items for sale and the great prices (should have been suspicious then) I bought a pair of shorts for $28. I then received an email that I would be notified when the item was shipped. I became a little concerned that the email address that I received was from a third party company and not Tommy Bahama. After a week of not getting my product or notification that it was shipped I checked our bank account and saw where the $28 was taken out on the date of sale. I went back to Facebook and could not find the original ad but after searching Tommy Bahama Sale saw several posts from people who also got scammed. Lesson learned never order anything off an ad on Facebook. Always double check by going to an official website. I contacted our bank and put a freeze on our account and are getting new cards. I contacted Tommy Bahama and Facebook. I am disappointed in Facebook in that they don’t do a better job of verifying ads but ultimately it is my fault. Once again I have to remind myself, if it’s too good to be true it usually isn’t. 17 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normally the shorts sell for $75-$80 so when I saw them on sale for $28 I jumped on it. I now know never trust a FB ad and always go to the official website. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FromSea2ShiningSea Posted September 14, 2023 #103162 Share Posted September 14, 2023 (edited) What a beautiful day in Bayonne, New Jersey. This was how it started. Verazzano Bridge at 5:30 in the morning Going under the bridge The bridge behind us Teardrop Memorial Statue of Liberty Bayonne Golf Course Like I always say, all good things must come to an end. So this wraps up our B2B British Isles/Arctic Circle cruise. What an adventure it’s been. Now the dreaded task begins. I will have to go through and edit all of my thousands of pictures.

The same thing happened to me with an ad for down pillows from what I thought was an online going out of business sale for Bed, Bath and Beyond. After placing my order, I too was suspicious at the 3rd party email. I did the research and found out it was a scam. Credit card company couldn't put a hold on the transaction that only showed as pending. When it was paid a day later, it was put on hold and new cards were issued. Then we had to notify companies that auto deduct monthly payment from the "old" credit card. Lesson learned. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
