Thanks for updating us, sounds like admitting him was a good idea since he has so many other issues. I hope you were able to get some sleep last night.

You finally went on your cruise!! I hope you enjoyed it. As far as your medicine refrigerator, what you received is what we have gotten on many ships when we put a request into the Special Needs department. I must have missed when you asked about them prior to your cruise because I have posted similar pictures in the past. We have never had issues with the plug falling out and have never checked the temperature, interesting to see what it actually was in the one you had. The medicine we use it for is refrigerated but is okay at room temperature for 30 days, so we haven't been too concerned about the temp. We end up unplugging it after the medicine is used because we found that thing to be loud.

I am glad you took him to be checked out. Better safe than sorry. Sending good thoughts and prayers your way. 🙂

I have no idea. Others have complained before too. It would make sense to have some available.

The D1 cabins sleep four, the cabin that they are connected to only sleep two or three. They aren't booking every other cabin, they are just showing you cabins that sleep four.

Oh no, Marietta. I am glad your daughter is there too to drive home with you. I hope he heals quickly.

No, first and second nights can be very busy because those are the nights diamond + get a BOGO dinner option.

It is long gone on Radiance, just used for WJ seating though Mexican vibe still there.

I think it is fine. I would just correct the spelling of Odyssey. 🙂

They are headquartered in Stratham, New Hampshire. I drive by the entrance quite frequently on the way to my Mom’s house. They used to have a factory store in the plant with chocolate seconds, like empty truffle shells or broken bars etc. I think we just had too much of it. 🙂

Lindt is made in the US now and just doesn’t seem to be as good. I would get something different if I went to Switzerland, not something I can buy here in BJ’s.

No but they were involved in deflate gate 2.0 in December.

Sorry for your loss, Marietta. Sending prayers to all. 🙏🏻

LOL The "first thing that popped up" is likely a company that you have to pay to file your passport, otherwise known as click bait. Hopefully, that isn't where you are sending your daughter for information too. The official site states 6-8 weeks processing time. It also has information on Special Passport Acceptance Fairs that are happening all over the country. For the OP, here is the link that will help you apply for their passports. Much easier to fill out the form online and print it than doing it by hand. https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/passports.html

Royal Caribbean's website does not allow more than five on one reservation, no matter the capacity of the cabin. It is archaic, but it is just how the system "works". It is better to just call and book directly since you need to make sure you can book five in the cabin. Sometimes larger capacity rooms, like the one you have booked, are limited to how many that can be booked because the lifeboat assigned to that cabin has reached capacity.

What website are you checking? The official passport website says 6-8 weeks.

Birth certificate and government issued picture ID is all that is needed on a closed loop cruise for those 16 years old and up. If you kids are under 16 years old, they are fine with their birth certificates. You will need your picture ID as well as your sea pass in Nassau as they check both. The port area in Nassau was just rebuilt, not sure when the prior poster was there but obviously not recently. Passports are coming back much faster than in recent years. I saw a post today that it only took three weeks, which is amazing. It would depend on the kids ages and whether you have more plans to travel in the near future if I were to try to get passports. If the kids are almost 16, I would wait as once they are 16, they get a 10 year passport, not the 5 year for younger kids.

It is more just a CYA just in case the homeowner is upset. With all the Ring cameras these days, someone likely saw it happen.

I am glad you weren’t hurt but I would at least report it to the police so they aren’t investigating a hit and run. The homeowner could have contacted them since you didn’t leave a note.

My DH and son both worked from home today because we were supposed to get that mess too. We figured it would be a shoveling storm and too much for me to do alone. I usually clear enough for them to get into the driveway and they do the rest.

Storm decided to shift low and miss us almost completely. Schools around here announced closings last night, winter parking bans in effect, some businesses didn't open and it was all for nothing. My deck and lawn has a dusting and the street is wet and that is it! Careful shoveling that cement, I hate that kind of snow.

Happy to hear you didn't mess up that hip! Hope you feel better soon. 🙂

I am glad Charlie did well. Are you okay after your fall?

Not impressed by any of the commercials. Lots of religious commercials which is different for a Superbowl. Not an exciting game. See what happens with the halftime show......

My Mom and I had to clean out and sell my aunt's house and her condo when we had to move her to assisted living. She had no kids and her husband had told my Mom, just before he died, now she is your problem. 😲 My aunt was legally blind and was overwhelmed with the whole project, so we had to do most of it once we had moved her. We cleared all the personal items out and sold the Florida condo furnished, so that helped, but the house took us a long time. We sold some stuff and when people came to pickup what they bought, offered other stuff for free. That moved a lot of stuff but we threw away a lot of stuff that wasn't worth keeping and donated a lot of furniture too. I look at all the stuff my Mom has in her condo and try not to think about the house she has down in Florida that we will have to deal with too. Someone asked about my Mom's house in Florida because they are interested in buying it, but she wants to keep it just in case. At least everyone has stopped giving my Mom "stuff". We try to give her stuff that she needs. One of the grandkids sends ice cream. She is the new favorite. 😄
