How do we do that?

Keyboard for me too. I'm ALL thumbs on the phone and not in a good way. I think young people today will be in need of hand surgeons in their futures.😁

There's also "autofill" and "autocorrect" which are not written by English majors and they "correct" the correct stuff wrongly.🤣

Keith! Typos and errors are fine! We all make them and “write” not “right” them. I always get a laugh at your bloopers because I know you are typing 700 wpm😂

Happy to help!

They will definitely pick you up at the airport and to the ship. Pretty sure they'll do it in reverse but we did it airport to hotel and hotel to ship. Just ask, they are wonderful.

Hahaha---in front of "me"🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣you are too funny!

Here you go!

You'll love this lovely piece of classic beauty. Last time we were there they picked us up at the airport and our room was ready by 9AM! They have a nice bar with just the right amount of food for the jet lagged too. I'm trying to post a few photos but I have to figure that out....stay tuned.

Oh yes the cursed sentence diagramming! Drives me nuts to hear news commentators talk about "a million and a half" people - who is the half person? They don't understand "one and a half million"....🤯 Maybe if it was in monetary form....

Avenida Palace is the creme de la creme and the best breakfast buffet in all of Europe! Rooms are large and elegant. Love this place! https://www.hotelavenidapalace.pt

Everyone used to have grammar in school. But our grandkids😱

That leaves us out, can’t handle 2 connections let alone the mental exertion wondering if luggage will show up. First world problems I know but we’re getting too old for schlepping through multiple airports.

I'm wondering if this means ALL Symphony cruises will begin and end there. That could mean short segments instead of good long B2Bs. Any ideas? Same question about Serenity - what about WC segments? I guess we'll find out when the '25 itins are released but I'm curious today!

It is a curse, isn't it?😁

There will be plenty of bubbles for you!

Unfortunately, I am a product of a small private school that, in the 60s, and even today, is rigorous in its discipline in the English language. Look at those who say “less” when you mean “fewer” and who use the subjective as the subject such as “me and Joe….” ( even major publications, I would drive editors crazy!) Fingernails on the blackboard. No one knows what a blackboard is anyway…how about combining “under” with water when it is precisely 2 words. Uh oh can of worms now open. 😉

My bad. Addled brain with all the bad grammar.

According to the etiquette books which nobody reads anymore, they say that the correct addressing of such a couple is Dr…Dylaness and Mr. Dylaness OR, if he uses the title Dr. and Dr……. The Mr. Doctor half takes the second place (if he doesn’t use it socially) and the Mrs. Doctor gets first billing. He’s supposed to be used to it.😎 Crystal did it wrong.

Lovely article. Lovely family. The correct verb is ADMINISTER not ADMINISTRATE. l English grammar is a lost art. 🙄

We always ask to not be presented with a bill at the table , opting for signing on the way out or at a later date, not to make guests uneasy. We’re on board, they’ll find us, there’s no rush.

Our AE charge always says Crystal Cruises not xxxxtravel agency.

Horrific no matter what you call them!

We did not do Australia in '05 but distinctly remember the 2 typhoons in 2010. Age (?!!!) does terrible things to our memory🤯

That's awful. Sounds like you need a new cc company.
