We all hope he is OK. 🌺Hi Rich! Thanks for letting us know on Erewhon!! 🌴🌴🌴 We just got notice of a tsunami watch for us with our home in Kaanapali. Our friend called us about the watch. It is at the end of Kaanapali on the beach. With their last earthquake we had a watch and we were fine. I hope erewhon is doing well.

Sharon in AZ Posted March 4, 2021 #78 Share Posted March 4, 2021 (edited) Good afternoon everyone! Thank you for the Daily Rich and thank you for your lists Roy. Also thank you for posting your brother’s obituary notice, sounds like he was a well educated man and lived a good life. Again, I am so sorry for your loss. I had a busy morning: Yay!! Second vaccine is scheduled for April 1st. I wish I could get DH an appointment, I keep checking every day. There is availability but I want to schedule somewhere closer to home so he can work it into his work schedule. I’m making Swai with the roasted tomato feta sauce recipe that was a recipe of the day a bit ago. I don’t have basil but it tastes good anyway, I’ll use parsley instead. I remember marching band from school. Band was a big deal in our small town in Colorado and parades were a big deal too. Anyone who was in band was also in marching band. Have a great day everyone! Forgot to mention that I’ve never been to the port of the day nor Japan. Edited March 4, 2021 by Sharon in AZ 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our Shawn went through MOHS surgery on the side of her nose Basel cell and it was done wonderfully. I had Basel on my face where MOHS done needed 2 times and unfortunately I had squamous cell ! Allen is in great hands with good surgeons and he will come through!! Our prayers will be extra special for my dear brother in law.🙏 ❤️You!

StLouisCruisers Posted March 4, 2021 #83 Share Posted March 4, 2021 @Seasick Sailor🙏 for Allen. He will do great! Unfortunately for all of us oldies, the dermatologist visits are at least an annual thing and probably more often than that. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ger_77 Posted March 4, 2021 #84 Share Posted March 4, 2021 @bennybear you don't have to wait to renovate, you can purchase those lovely heated seats/bidet replacements at Costco for your current commode. Our DS (who lived and married in Japan) bought one a couple of years ago for their home in Calgary. Love visiting there! LOL @Seasick Sailor will definitely keep your DH in my prayers. Smooth Sailing! 🙂🙂🙂 Gerry 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never been to Japan, except in the airport on a layover to Singapore. Does that count? Roy, what a wonderful obituary for your brother. It sounds like he was a very interesting man. The Cape Canaveral National Cemetery is a beautiful place. Very well cared for. My family volunteers there to remove the wreaths after Christmas. We received our results- I am negative, DS is positive. So as of right now there are 17 family members positive. Of the 4 that are negative, we were all in various stages of the vaccine. So it works! We will continue to quarantine . What a terrible legacy for my brother. Stay safe and stay vigilant. Charlene Wish there was a button for I'm sorry! 😔 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lindaler Posted March 5, 2021 #87 Share Posted March 5, 2021 Good afternoon everyone. Thanks Rich for the daily. Thanks for sharing about your brother Roy. I ended my overlander adventure. After three, almost four months away, home is very nice. I got home and the next day was able to get my first shot. Day three home is sunny and windy. I’ve missed everyone. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Vict0riann Posted March 5, 2021 #88 Share Posted March 5, 2021 It has been a busy day, on the Daily, and here, so I am late. So much to say, Roy, what a great obituary for your brother. He sounds like an amazing man! Charlene, happy your Covid test was negative, yay for vaccination!, but sorry about your DS testing positive. What a disaster for your family! So sad. I hope Erewhon is not affected by the earthquake/tsunami. Mohs surgery is great, when I had it (6 cuts), I ended up with a big zigzag all down my nose, but there is no sign of it now, it healed beautifully. I have only been in Tokyo airport, but my parents had their honeymoon in Japan (1937). They loved it. Roy, we were on Prinsendam, too, this day in 2019 - and I couldn't remember your dinner, so I looked in my photos. We had gone to the Canaletto that evening, for the special dinner "La Dolce Vita". I won't tell Pat he missed one of his favourite crumbles! 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tbay Posted March 5, 2021 #89 Share Posted March 5, 2021 @horizonchaser1957 Great pictures of Pahia. We were spent a week there, 5 years ago, before cruising around NZ and back to Vancouver. Our cruise was supposed to stop in Pahia, but had mechanical issues and we missed Pahia and Auckland. We sat on our balcony in Pahia, watching the parasailers. @rafinmd Thank you for sharing the obituary of your brother. He lived an interesting life. You must have been very proud of him. May memories keep him close. @St. Louis Cruisers Hope you will post about the 2022 Grand South America cruise. Just booked that cruise in 2023. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VintageGeo Posted March 5, 2021 #90 Share Posted March 5, 2021 Good evening, thanks for the Daily. Prayers for those with a need and cheers to those with a cause. Thanks for sharing your brother's obit, Roy. It sounds like he lived a fulfilling and fascinating life. Our thoughts are with @erewhon and the people of New Zealand this evening. We hope all is well with them. Stay safe and healthy, and our best wishes to all. Lori & George 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We circumnavigated Japan in 2019 and it was one of our most favourite cruises! We didn’t go to Takamatsu, but actually just booked a cruise two days ago for 2023 that will visit there! I highly recommend Japan, it was absolutely delightful! And spring is a wonderful time to visit! From this port, it looks like you could easily visit one of the top gardens in Japan at Okayama where all these photos were taken. We really enjoyed it! I so wish I'd made it to Japan on Westerdam in 2020 but it wasn't to be. I love your photos, especially the cranes -- they are like living works of art. Luckily I didn't try to rebook that trip for 2021 -- I thought I already had a plate full of travel planned. Doesn't look like much of that will happen either.... But once things normalize, this trip will be near the top of my list. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare TiogaCruiser Posted March 5, 2021 #93 Share Posted March 5, 2021 Good Evening All, Gee wiz, it’s already March 4. So far this month has been gobbled up by some training I’m taking. And today it finished.😁 Had sat down to write a bit about my last cruise and realized just now that 3 years ago we had sailed away from Buenos Aires. The focus of the trip was Iguazu Falls, which was already over as of 3-2-18. So am a little late.🤪 So I’ll pick up the story with the events of this day, 3 years ago, now, and back track to talk about the Falls on what were sea days on the 6th and 7th. We boarded Zaandam 3 years ago yesterday, (March 3) and overnighted on the ship tied up in the industrial dock. Zaandam had a nice spot on the pier with her port side towards the Rio Plata. (On my Antarctica trip, Veendam had been docked deep inside the industrial area surrounded by shipping cartons.) My driver picked me up at the hotel around 11:00, which gave me time to walk over to Florida Street and the Pacifica Mall (I picked up a few gifts, a bottle of wine and my first taste of that famous Argentine ice cream.) Oh my gosh- I fell in love with the later. When checking in at the pier, I paid corkage for my bottle and left it with the steward to be taken to the dining room. Bad decision: when I got to the MDR that evening, that bottle was MIA. I got quite the good natured ribbing from my British table mates, who spun a story of a group of stewards below deck toasting my taste in Malbec. 🍷 🍷 On the 4th, I had signed up for a tour of the Delta. The first stop was a small town along the river with a large church and a craft fair in a park. IMG_5213.MOV Then it was on to a cruise of the river which was enjoyable in the heat and we saw a large number of beautiful wooden boats. 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
