Ocean Boy Posted October 7, 2023 #105058 Share Posted October 7, 2023 47 minutes ago, TravelGirlinDallas said: I experienced the same feeling. We went to an actual church service at Westminster Abbey on a Sunday, then went back for a tour later. Both were very moving. They are rightfully particular about having no tourists looking around while the church service is going on. They gave us skeptical looks and verified that we were indeed there for the service before letting us in. That happened to me once in Florence, Italy. I was going to Mass at the Cathedral Santa Maria Dei Fiori. I guess I looked a little too American for the beast at the entrance. When I started explaining to him in Italian why I was there he stepped aside. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ocean Boy Posted October 7, 2023 #105060 Share Posted October 7, 2023 2 hours ago, A&L_Ont said: Congratulations to you two. This was our Thursday night. Owen’s team is 0-3 this year. Hopefully you will have better luck than our boys. Unfortunately I think they will be out in the first game of playoffs. The senior program does not get the same coaching skills as the junior program. We personally know more than 6 players that either quit or didn’t even tryout this year because of the coaching techniques. Last night was spent at the hockey rink. We are 3-1. Won 19-15 last night. Scored the last winning touchdown with 20 seconds left in the game. Just an awesome group of kids. I really enjoy being with them. 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Sea Dog Posted October 7, 2023 #105061 Share Posted October 7, 2023 Well since I can't do too much and I am taking it easy at least I have one diversion, the Adventure sailing starting today has our same itinerary so it's to the app I go. Most of you know I am a planner type guy. I make out a schedule for preplanning which nights we do specialty and which nights to eat in the MDR. So far it looks like on our sailing it will be. Day 1 Casual "Welcome" Day 2 Formal "Taste of Italy" Day 3 Caribbean "Taste of the Caribbean" Day 4 Casual "Taste of Mexico" Day 5 70's "Taste of Italy" Day 6 Dress to Impress "Royal Night" Day 7 Casual "Bon Voyage" So judging from the menus I think we will do our 3 night dining package on nights 3,4 and 7. Now I know all this could change as to availability once I try and make reservations but it gives me a chance to see everything and help plan. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the midst of what you and your beautiful Country is going through, you are still helping us with your immense knowledge of travel info, and I thank you. I wrote the name of the hotel in Venice and checked it out on the website you provided, on the same page with the London info from our other Dani thread family💕 I'm so glad that you are on the internet with us, and that also helps us to know that you and DH are in a safe place. Praying for you!🙏 Love you, Dani!💕 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're OK for now, and I'm glad that our grands are not in Israel anymore.... Woke up at 6.30AM to the "tune" of sirens alerting missile attack. DH, who doesn't wear his hearing aids when sleeping, was blissfully unaware. Woke him up and we rushed to our shelter room. Having a "deja vu" -- 50 years and one day ago, a Saturday, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar.... The Yom Kippur war started. DH, as a reservist, was drafted for 6 months !!! We were married less than 9 months. I moved back to my parents. The worst scenario all over again, but 50 years ago we had the "buffer" of the Sinai Peninsula, and the first victims were soldiers. Now "they" crossed the frontier straight into civilian cities and settlements.... I slept in today but when I woke up and opened the news I saw the headlines and immediately came on CC to see if you have checked in. I was glad to see you post. Be safe Dani, I'm so sorry you are going through this. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJSailors Posted October 7, 2023 #105071 Share Posted October 7, 2023 @dani negreanu Dani-While I do not post here often, I read your thread everyday. You and your family and friends were first in my thoughts when I heard the news about the attacks in Israel. I am pleased to read that you are okay. Hoping that you and yours remain safe. There is no good outcome to the actions taken today. When will people realize that acts of destruction will benefit no one? You will remain in my thoughts. I will be checking for further posts from you. Take care MJ🙋🏻♀️ 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We made it to SD but because of all the backlog of flights, there is no open gates. We are waiting for one to open to move the plane to the gate. Also, we got an email from Royal that due to fog, Radiance could not dock so everything was delayed for an hour. They asked us to arrive at the terminal one hour later than our check in time. When approaching landing, we saw out of the window our ship at the dock. The terminal is very close to the airport. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
