I'm Jimmy Buffetts age and he died yesterday ! My husband will be 80 in 2024. Our schnoodle Darla would have been 16 yesterday and she died on Thursday. Darla and I used to dance to Jimmy Buffett songs and she loved his music. I think she knew he was going to be in Heaven soon and she wanted to get there before him so she could bark at his arrival and greet him. At least that's what I would like to think😇🤗 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leen50 Posted September 3, 2023 #107 Share Posted September 3, 2023 Myjillian, sometimes I feel like we shouldn't buy Green Bananas, but we have cruises booked for 2025. I'm 73 & hubby is 84. You'll find him in the Gym on Sea Days! Sorry about Darla, hope she's hanging with Jimmy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krash20 Posted September 16, 2023 #110 Share Posted September 16, 2023 Hubby and I (Mark & Kristin) booked this a while back as I we have not been to several of these islands, very excited. Question if I may. We are driving from SE Michigan, I have booked a room at the Hampton - Ridgefield Park, NJ as they offer a Park, Ride and Cruise ($355 total) they will drop and pick up at the port and we can park there for the duration. I know we will be on their time frame but they state a 9:00 am drop and a 9:30 to 12:30 pick up. Since we arrive on Friday we don't have to bust out of NY to get home since we have a few days to get home. I read that parking at the pier is first come and parking is not guarantied, I may be willing to pay the extra $$ to park at the pier for convenience and get a room a few hours out of NYC. I would appreciate any experience or opinions on this. We will be turning Platinum on this cruise, woohoo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leen50 Posted September 17, 2023 #111 Share Posted September 17, 2023 Krash20, the biggest issue will be the weather. We live in Ann Arbor and will be on the ship for a month. Port parking is $45 per day. Have you considered flying? As far as the early pick up, from what I read, they clear the ship pretty early anyway. Congratulations on Platinum!

Krash20 Posted September 17, 2023 #112 Share Posted September 17, 2023 I did look at airfare and its reasonable but we are not big fans of air travel and enjoy car travel and seeing the sites even in winter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brilliantseas Posted September 27, 2023 #113 Share Posted September 27, 2023 Join us on the Carnival Venezia for the February 11 - 23, 2024 Carnival Journeys cruise to the Southern Caribbean. This itinerary features some very unique ports of call, including Antigua, Dominica, Grenada, St. Lucia, and St. Maarten. What else makes this sailing special? Not only do we get to sail away from the Manhattan Cruise Terminal at sunset, but we also get to watch the Super Bowl at sea! Who's joining me on this incredible sailing from New York on February 11, 2024? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leen50 Posted September 29, 2023 #116 Share Posted September 29, 2023 Anyone interested in the itineraries to Celebration Key? I'm fairly certain that it's not a true Private Island like Half Moon Cay with the BBQ lunch. It's more like Amber Cove & Grand Turk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please wear something with Flamingos on them if you have anything. This is a meeting of people who like Flamingos ( the Bird ) not to be confused with the Carnival meaning of an upside down Pinapple !!! Participation prizes will be given out LOL This is just to meet others who like Flamingos and would like to talk about seeing them etc, why you like them etc.🦩🦩🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

myjillian Posted October 16, 2023 #123 Share Posted October 16, 2023 (edited) It's called Urohidrossis (sp ?) but I think it's just a rumor that short legged birds started because they were jeleous🙃 Edited October 16, 2023 by myjillian 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
