TxTeach79's Pride LIVE 5/28: Post Drydock European Adventure!

In the last month, I have purchased both a Volvo (New Funwagon) and throwback New Balances. If that ain’t fully accepting middle age, I don’t know what is.

The nice thing about the admission charge is that it can get applied to a purchase in the bookstore. It's really remarkable inside!

I just got us tix! Thanks for the recommendation!

We're gonna have an hour to and hour and a half tops in there before our food & drink tour... hopefully we can grab a cab at Leixoes ASAP and get there right away

Oh this is going to be fun! Can't wait to hear about your adventures!

I know you're doing a tour in Lisbon but for those that are also on this cruise and are just planning to walk the city may I suggest you don't miss the Time Out Market( don't forget to have the egg custard tarts Pasteis de Nata!!!) and a visit to one of the tinned fish stores.

For post cruise suggestions in London if you're interested in seeing a West End show you should download the phone app called TodayTix. What's cool about this app is the ability to get onto a virtual queue for Rush tickets. Checkout the app for the show you are interested in and if they offer Rush tickets. If so you can request to sign up be notified to join the virtual queue for Rush tickets.It's basically like a lottery system and if you 'win' a place to buy Rush tickets you can get orchestra seats to top shows for 15,20,25,or 30 pounds each! When we did this last June we saw Dear Evan Hanson and The Book of Morman for 25 pounds!

For your Le Havre stop may I recommend Honfleur.

Easy to do by public transport.

Walk to the bus station and catch the bus.

Beautiful place.

@TxTeach79 I have you beat. I just purchased a pair of "orthopedic" skechers for this trip because I knew we would be walking a lot. They are also "slip ons." 😂

Tentative plans to tackle this with B’s cousin the first day post cruise. Time to do liver curls.

It’s another beautiful early summer day in Texas - time to grab a little fuel for the day ahead! Went smoked salmon crepe and grits, that classic combination. Gotta get my food pic fingers all limbered up, you see…..

Yes, that's exactly what we did.

@TxTeach79 Download the British Airways app if you haven't already. In a different group people flying in to LHR today are saying their LHR to BCN flight was canceled. They are saying to download the BA app so you can keep up with flight status in real time and immediately rebook another flight. The poster was able to do that because they had the app but apparently a lot of other people didn't find out until the arrived at the airport and by then the later flights for the same day were full so they ended up being stuck in London until the next day.

yes, thanks!!! I was just reading that same thread, yikes! Here’s hoping we have better luck. I’ve got the app loaded and ready to go, didn’t even choose “Viscount” as my title…

@Eli_6 so far so good, app is at the ready

Gotta get some work in. You play how you practice. Pool attire in action. You look good, you feel good. #itscalledfashionsweaty

TxTeach79 · May 22, 2023

TxTeach79 · May 22, 2023

Their annual cruise is why I went on my first cruise years ago.

TxTeach79 · May 22, 2023

Got the sangria swirl Marg from my local taco shop. You know, to prep for Spain. Responsibly.
