Good morning. So sorry to hear of so many people with illness. Prayers for all. Cheers to those on cruises and especially to all who are essential to keeping this thread going. Great grandson and his parents came last night. He is getting so big and showing his personality. He is a joy. Watching the protests right now on tv. So sorry to see this and hoping for a peaceful resolution — if that is possible. About 6 weeks or so until my next cruise with my twin. Symphony of the Seas out of Bayonne on June 14. Always good to get away with Karen — lots of laughs! Have a great day! Katherine

Good morning and Happy Sunday. Prayers for all in need. So many illnesses and I will pray for healing for all. DTS Karen (twin) and her DH coming over for dinner and a baseball game. We haven’t figured out what we will eat yet but something will come together. I know I have some apps I can serve and maybe some cheese tortellini with Alfredo. Time will tell. Church first in cold SE PA today. Church is a walk for me so weather does matter! Have a great day everyone. Katherine

Good morning and Happy Saturday! Prayers for all in need and thanks to all who contribute to this site. I just had to give a shout out for dinner last night. DS had purchased lobster tails from Aldis in February (they were selling for Valentines Day) and put them in the freezer. Thawed out and three of us ate them last night. Excellent - as good as any in the main dining room on a ship. So just a recommendation to try them if an Aldis is close by. Very inexpensive too. Just my tip for the day. 😀 Katherine

Earthquake update — we did not feel it in SE PA but neighbors and our son did. Family in NJ and Brooklyn felt it as did their pets. It has been an interesting spring!! Katherine

Good morning. Prayers and best wishes to all. Sorry to read about the health issues some are experiencing. Easter company went home last night. I love seeing everyone but we are used to a quiet, calm house. Great grandson is adorable. Scary last night when electricity went out. PPL projection was for lights on by Friday afternoon. Fortunately lights back on in 45 minutes. We will try to use up the food in the refrigerator today and watch a Mets doubleheader. Have a great day! Katherine

Good morning, all. Thanks to all contributors and many prayers for those in need. Another bad weather day here in PA. MLB opening day postponed for both Mets and Phillies. Game day tomorrow. I am adjusting to being home after spending 22 day on a ship - of which only 8 days had been planned in advance. DH Bill is glad for me to be home as he has had some health concerns lately which needed both a virtual and an inoffice visit to his doctor. Hopefully things are settling down now. I am taking the easy way out and have ordered Easter dinner from Wegmans. My twin and I decided a few years back that ordering out is the way to go now for the holidays. We wish to enjoy the day just like all others in our family. Best wishes to all who celebrate our Christian holiday this week. May all on this thread be free of pain and distress. Blessings to all. Katherine

Hi, all. Yes, frequently sailing under the Key bridge and best estimate around 70 to 80 times. I got back home on Saturday. This is just devastating news especially considering the loss of life. Vision is on a longer trip right now but it will be doubtful she will be able to return to the Port of Baltimore anytime soon. Prayers for all involved. Katherine

Happy St Pats Day! ☘️ We are in Charleston today and going to Fleet Landing for lunch. Very nice weather. Thanks to all who participate in this thread. Prayers for those in need. Vision of the Seas is an older ship but has everything that we need. Lots of fun with friends and family no matter which ship we are on! Be sure to be on the lookout for leprechauns today. 😀. Katherine

Prayers for all in need. Thanks for all the good wishes for my trip. In the car now chitchatting with my sister as we plan our week. It’s good to get away for a while. Have a great day. Katherine

Thank you. Will be sure to give an review when I return but we really have never had a problem in Bayonne.

Sounds delicious. But today is final packing for trip tomorrow and making sure I have all things ready for DH Bill and our daughter. Have a great dinner. Lancaster is a great place to visit.

Vanessa - glad you are home — and having coffee! Best wishes for swift recovery.

Good morning. Prayers for all who are not well and best wishes to all. Weather here is pretty moderate for the end of February. Long term forecast looks good too. So…my twin “spends some time in the casino”. As a result she gets “free” cruises. She has been on me to join her in her cabin on Anthem of the Seas for seven days starting on Sunday. Since my daughter is available to stay with her dad I finally said yes. So the next few days will be busy since I haven’t totally unpacked from the 2/8 cruise! Silly me. But I will get it all done. Thanks to all our regulars who make this site a must read every day! Katherine

Happy Presidents Day to all. As always, prayers for those in need. A big thanks to the folks who keep our thread going with much interesting information. Though I don’t post daily I am a daily reader. Yesterday dinner with nephew and family went very well. It was great to finally see them in person after about 5 years. That darn covid kept many families apart for a very long time. We will enjoy today with its relatively warm weather. Hope all continue to be safe and well. Katherine
