Public smoking is now prohibited, cigarettes, cigars, anything.

I wish I could do a Like, Like, Like! That is so cool. Thank you for sharing with us. ☺️

Generally, not. It is usually one or the other.

Maybe pins and screws/plates? I'm so sorry this happened. Things like that happen so quickly and unexpectedly. The kitties will be happy when you get home and happy to have your lap.

Hydrocodone makes me really sleepy. And morphine injections make me throw up. Only once, and it still seems to work fine. Just not tolerated well. ☺️ I thought Tramadol was the best to dull the pain without associated sleepiness.

That is interesting about the purple flag! I did not know that, and don't think I have ever seen one.

I love her outfit! That looks so lovely and comfortable. I dislike formal wear, because it is usually not. ☺️

I tend to use that option as well. ☺️

I don't know for sure. But I certainly agree with you, that it kind of stinks. We are branching out to other cruise lines. I know suites have been non-refundable for a while. Which would be a huge hit to the pocketbook.

Gosh. We didn't go. there are 551 stairs to get up to the dome.

Beautiful photos Helen of every place! Those deer are really scruffy looking, though. LOL. They might as well be goats at the petting zoo. I still love animal photos. Japan looks absolutely gorgeous everywhere. Thank you for sharing your travels.

We used to go to an ice machine at night to get 25 lb.? blocks of ice so we could go ice blocking at a particular park with a hill and grass. Once you get a little dew on the grass, you throw a carpet square on top of it and slide down the hill at some speed. We also needed some "borrowed" milk crates to carry the blocks. We only did it a few times, but it was great fun until the rangers arrived one evening. Apparently, it wasn't very good for the grass. ☺️ The ice machine is still there, but I don't if it sells blocks anymore. The blocks were also very good for weekend camping with an ice chest. They melt a lot slower than bagged ice.

I don't know much about it. But I have read on here that you cannot use a Visa gift card to set up your account. Because it doesn't have your name on it. What was stated, was that you could use it settle your onboard charges at the end of the cruise at guest services. I have no idea if that is true, or if it has changed since the post was written.

And how did you go over there? Cab, water taxi or ship excursion?
