rangeley Posted October 17, 2020 #23327 Share Posted October 17, 2020 Thank you Cody and Rebecca for posting. I think of her every day. We had one of the best cruises with her last November. I think we laughed the whole week. She was so proud of all her grandchildren and spoke of you often. The stories she would tell!!! I feel like I know all of you. ❤️ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DUTRAVEL Posted October 17, 2020 #23329 Share Posted October 17, 2020 Thanks for sharing your pictures Rebecca. I am so glad you were able to experience cruising with your Grammy. Your memories will last a lifetime. Dianne 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And for sharing the "tails" from the cruise! I love the way these labs just perfect the "long suffering" looks - with the puzzlement of where is my next treat coming from! You must have had such fun on your trips with Grammy and I am sure you know by now just how much she will be missed by us here. As we have failed to find your Grammy's Obituary on legacy dot com - would you mind posting a link please. (Thank you Nancy for looking - I did look again but just couldn't find it. Rangeley - I think Nancy first thought I meant the obituary posted on here by Cody but as he mentioned to head over to legacy dot com I was actually looking for that but then neither of us could find it.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S.S. Cruisers Posted October 18, 2020 #23331 Share Posted October 18, 2020 Cindy, I was wrong. I was thinking of the one Cody posted for us. I also went to Legacy and can't find it. 😞 I have lived in the cold weather. Not a fan. But also not a fan of our summer 110+ temps! Where is the happy medium? When we were in Hawaii, on our cruise, one of the taxi drivers who was born and raised in Maui said she really doesn't like it. She said she feels isolated. If you want to go anywhere, you have fly. I hadn't thought of that aspect of it. Even though Maui has everything you could need, it must close in on the people that live there. I don't know, I think I would be fine with it. Since we really haven't left the house since March I can see be quarantined on Maui! I could make it work! 🌴🦜 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rebex_B Posted October 18, 2020 #23333 Share Posted October 18, 2020 Fairbourne, Sorry about that, I talked to Cody and he said that the legacy.com is not set up yet. It was a typo to leave it in. When it is active, I’ll let you all know!! Sorry to send you all on a goose chase trying to find it, Rebecca. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caribbean Chris Posted October 19, 2020 #23336 Share Posted October 19, 2020 Fairbourne, I laughed at your “long suffering” description, which so perfectly fits Horty, my Raylene, and other worried-looking black Labs. I always think yellow Labs (and definitely Golden Retrievers) have default happy faces in comparison. I’m looking forward to our week, starting Wednesday, hosting my friend Pat’s CCI hearing dog, Firenze, a yellow Lab. (He always stays with us when she is away for a scenario where she’d rather not bring him along.) The doggies have a wonderful time hanging out together 24/7, needless to say. Will take a photo to post. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rangeley Posted October 23, 2020 #23337 Share Posted October 23, 2020 Well had to cancel our January cruise. Final payment was due. 😭 Even though we knew we would have to cancel, it was still having it booked that made us feel better. We had wanted to take this cruise for years but for a long time the itinerary only went once a year and it was never a good time. It was a 10 day cruise too. 😭 Damn covid!!

S.S. Cruisers Posted October 23, 2020 #23339 Share Posted October 23, 2020 Sorry Cindy, I could use a cruise about now. I was thinking, wouldn't it be safer to go now? Maybe others would think it was unsafe and there wouldn't be as many people. I would think the cruise lines would be cleaning like mad (men). Just a random thought that pops up in my head.....

S.S. Cruisers Posted October 23, 2020 #23340 Share Posted October 23, 2020 Ooooo, I found a pup site for GoldenDoodles, BerneDoodles and SheepaDoodles! Omg, sooo cute. I don't remember if its ok to give websites out, but it isn't for cruising info. Its doodles doodles doodles dot com no spaces between the doodles. I imagine they would make good service dogs with the poodles mixed in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmg365suzyq Posted October 23, 2020 #23341 Share Posted October 23, 2020 I have 2 cruises scheduled for next year. One in April and my BIG 65th birthday cruise in November. Keeping my fingers crossed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger88 Posted October 23, 2020 #23342 Share Posted October 23, 2020 We really wanted to book two cruises in the end of the current year but we had to cancel both beforehand. Now we have no plans for the next year cause we dont want to deal with refunds and all this stuff prior to cruising. In any case, I hope that most of you will avoid this stressful situations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rpclmc Posted October 23, 2020 #23343 Share Posted October 23, 2020 Although I miss cruising a ton, I am not planning any until cruising has started back up and most, if not all, ports are open. There is so much to see and do in the U.S. Even though I have been to all 50 states several times, there is so much more to see. I just plan on finding more places to visit. The biggest advantage, no having to jump through hoops with paperwork for Halo. I might consider and all inclusive to Cancun. We have to see. After two months of being 100% non weight bearing on my right leg; broken knee and ankle, I was finally able to use it starting last Monday. Amazing how 2 months of not using it negates 52 years of walking. I am not able to stand and walk yet, but it is making my transfers to the wheelchair and commode so much easier. And I am doing my standing exercises religiously. I couldn't stand and walk well before the accident on August 9th, but I plan on getting back to my "normal" quickly. And then I plan to drop some weight and keeping up my exercising to get even better. Hope everyone is doing well. Linda and Halo 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caribbean Chris Posted October 26, 2020 #23344 Share Posted October 26, 2020 Well darn, Cindy. I hate that your January cruise is off. We switched everything to 2022, thinking “surely by then...”. Of course, we were thinking that earlier this year about 2021. There is no “surely” anymore. To cheer us all up, here’s what’s going on at my house with our young visitor. He’s a CCI Hearing Dog, Yellow Lab of course, and we have him until Wednesday when his mom returns from a trip. Hard to be down in the dumps with those three happy faces to enjoy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linda and Halo I was going to rebook for 2022 but there wasn't any cruises listed to the Caribbean. So we'll have to wait. Glad to hear you're feeling somewhat better. Just remember take it slow.

We were supposed to be in Spain right now on a Transatlantic cruise. We have two cruises still scheduled for 2021, but who knows if we will be able to go. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caribbean Chris Posted October 26, 2020 #23348 Share Posted October 26, 2020 (edited) I love the Doggie Halloween picture. Henri and her friend on the left look happy but that boy on the right looks like he's thinking, "I don't care what we're celebrating, I do NOT wear hats!"😃 Edited October 26, 2020 by Caribbean Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of Raylene's trainers said the same thing. She definitely has that grey muzzle and really acts like the "old lady" at age 9 compared to the 4 year-old CCI boy.
