Crazy For Cats

Leaving Bar Harbor we sailed into the fog.  The horn keeps tooting.

Good Morning from Bar Harbor,  it's a beautiful day.

We haven't decided what we will do today.  i we will go ashore and walk around. 

I will say that so far we are getting the best wifi ever on a HAL ship.

All checked in and unpacked. 

Lunch included peanut butter silk pie.

Juan's anniversary flowers are beautiful.

We are all checked in and waiting to board the ship.

Boston is my hometown (well, okay, I grew up in Waltham, but still) - so I might be a bit biased, but I think the sail away from Boston is spectacular.

It is a nice sail away.  We live a little bit south of you.

Something to be aware of during sail away today.  The whales have been very active in the harbor.  Keep your eyes open as there is a chance we can see some today.

@Crazy For Cats  Jake, I hope the cruise is everything you and Juan want it to be.  I've cruised with the three other Dailyites, and have one request.  Please try to keep them out of trouble.  😉

What if this time I’m the cause of getting them into trouble?😁

I’ll try to make sure we are all allowed to stay onboard for turnaround day.

Thank you. 

Good Morning, thanks for today’s daily fleet report.  It’s a beautiful day here allowing for a nice sail away this afternoon.  I booked a ride service to take us to the pier.  It’s actually cheaper than paying for parking.  Also doing those final items to leave the house for two weeks.  @dfish and @Sharon in AZ see you soon!  I hope everyone has a good day today.

Is it Anne of Green Gables Chocolates?

Yes it is.  I also like their chocolate covered ginger.

It's a wonderful part of the world to visit - and I think Zuiderdam is the perfect sized ship. We had a great time on Volendam, but we both agreed we much preferred Zuiderdam.

I agree.  We’ve done this itinerary several times except we went to Montreal.  This is our first overnight in Quebec. It’s especially nice for us since Boston is our home port.

In Charlottetown, if you go downtown the chocolate store has really good chocolate covered potato chips.  I’m drawing a blank on the name but I do remember how to get there!

Thanks for starting a live from thread.  We will be joining you tomorrow and returning home on the 8/31 cruise.  

Good Morning, thanks for today’s daily fleet report. Mona got me out of bed earlier than usual, I’m sure she’ll entice me for a nap later. 😆 It will be a beautiful day here for @dfish and @Sharon in AZ to arrive and enjoy Boston.  Tomorrow promises to be a lovely day for sail away.  I have project going live while I’m away so finishing touches will be completed today, assuming the customer cooperates.  Today’s chores, other than work, include laundry and making sure the house is presentable for the pet sitter.  I hope everyone has a good day today.

Bon Voyage!

Thank you!  I’m looking forward to seeing @dfish, Sue and meeting @Sharon in AZ.

Good Morning, thanks for today’s daily fleet report.  It’s been a busy couple of weeks.  We had a new furnace/ac unit installed last Friday. That was a quick project, issue discovered on Monday, quoted on Wednesday and installed last Friday.  Had them back out this week since they didn’t set up the new thermostat to be programmable.  We also had our sewer line cleared out twice, since the first time they created a clog.  Work continues to be busy and I’m mentoring a new person to the group.

I’m packed for next Saturday with the exception of electronics.  Today’s agenda is making the house pet sitter ready.  

I’ll celebrate black cat day, even if Mona gets me out of bed at 4 am.  She is always up for an afternoon nap and sometimes I accommodate her request.  Hopefully I catch up on sleep while on the Zuiderdam.

Bon Voyage!

Bon Voyage!

Good Morning, thanks for today’s daily fleet report.  It’s going to be another hot and humid day today.  They promise it will be cooler tomorrow.  Today’s meal suggestion would be nice on a cooler day, instead we will have chicken. 
 

Another memory from three years ago today.

Good Morning, thanks for today’s report.  It’s going to be another hot and humid day today. Rain is in the forecast for this afternoon, hopefully we get it.  I’ll pass on the meal suggestion, instead I’m making a pork roast.  I hope everyone has a good day today.

Some memories from three years ago today.

Good Morning, thanks for today’s daily fleet report.  It’s another hot and very humid day.  I’m planning on a trip to Aldi this morning and then do some inside chores.  I wouldn’t last long working outside today.  Today’s meal suggestion sounds good, no decision on what’s for dinner tonight.  I hope everyone has a good day today.

Three years ago we visited Glacier Bay.

Good Morning Everyone, thanks for today’s daily fleet report.  It’s going to be another hot and humid day.  It will be a busy morning with work.  Hopefully I can make a quick run for Jasper’s meds.  I hope everyone has a good day today.

Hello again,

 

We have completely turned around our thinking on the solar eclipse cruise.  I looked at pricing and airfare and hotels and we found out that the VOV is only slightly more expensive than the "cheaper" Med cruise would turn out to be.  So, we are leaning in that direction right now.  The thought of another trip over the pond on an airplane does not thrill me.  

 

We're looking at booking when we are on board in a couple of weeks.  Can any of you think of any reasons not to and to go ahead and book now?  

The current promotion includes gratuity and it ends on 8/20.  If your cruise is in early booking bonus then I think you should wait,

Good Morning Everyone, thanks for today’s daily fleet report.  It’s been a busy morning with work and home.  Mona let me sleep until 4:50 then she lost her patience, so breakfast got served.  When I went downstairs Zander’s front paws were under the closet door.  A mouse was in a trap, the mouse was promptly removed. We are currently under a heat alert, it was 86 F when I went to the bank at 10.  No soup today, instead we will have pork chops.  I hope everyone has a good day today.

I have a sunrise from three years ago today on the NA.
