I am so jealous.  Are you staying at the Palazzo?   Look at that blue sky.  Have a wonderful time.  How has your experience been there?  Is is sad with no shows and nightlife?

We described the weather as if we were blow drying our face with the hair dryer. lol.

First time we went it was mid-July. It felt like 1000 blow dryers on high radiating from the sidewalk.

I watch the love boat show on dvd.

Also look at my photos of past cruises last one neing Ovation.

I went on ebay and bought new unused hat from Sovereign of the seas. Then sadly looked at photos of her being demolished.

 

Sad because the next ship to join the Turkey ship cemetery will be Carn Fascination which I also sailed on around same time frame.

Today, we did some cone work on our motorcycles, then a long ride to end the weekend. I cooked (smoked) some chicken quarters along with some Potatoes. I was in and out of the pool due to the heat.

Wow, I'm so happy to hear someone else watches the show.  The reruns are on weekly here and tonight's episode feature Donny Osmond.  It's so corny though and we always note how the entire crew would be fired if they worked on a ship today.

We just got back from our first time back in Atlantic City.  Things were definitely different.  We were lucky with the weather and had a great meal outside at Gordon Ramsey.   At least I had a cosmo that I could drink at the table, otherwise drinks have to be consumed outside or in your room.  We came home with more money than we left with so that was good!  I think we will wait awhile before we go back though.

We went back to our shore house at LBI.  Love my little island.  We spent the month of june here and rented for july and august.  So nice to be back.  Beautiful day at the beach!

I can say I live in paradise. 15 minutes to Siesta Beach in Sarasota Florida. Bought an Alexa for dad and mom. Both elderly and on lockdown in an ALF 40 minutes from me. Hard knowing they can't leave their room and go downstairs, but that's the best way for the facility to stay cove free. My mom always says all I want is a hug. I go online almost every day and look at YouTube videos of cruises and then I go look at prices, but then I tell myself I'm not giving them any money until they are up and running and things are working out.

 

Happy Cruising everyone!   Someday

Cabernet Sovereign, Merlot or Pinot Noir? 🍷

 

A nice red Zin for the grill chef...me off to the side with camera phone, enjoying a chilled SB.  😉 

 

Local brewed Oatmeal Stout...local oysters...local beer...good pair up. 😋 

 

Last Oysters we had prior....paired up with a super chilled bottle of Sauvignon Blanc...also a good choice!

Watched a rocket launch one year at night from a hotel at Canaveral the night before our cruise.

Yesterday I spent a couple hours learning how to use a drone. I’ve been wanting to buy one for our travels but hesitated to make the purchase in case it to would be too much for me, but I’m now hooked and will be purchasing soon. 

That’s cool. We have a couple and use them mostly for motorcycle skills training.

probably picking up the Mavic Mini combo

We have the Mavic 2 Pro and Pro Platinum. The Platinum was an order mistake we decided to keep.

Lucy tonight was on a roll tonight. You can hear the crickets which are now out in full force and maybe the cicadas too. It’s that time of the year. You will also hear Lisa and Owen are laughing at her.

I love to go on You tube and find the Princess ships horn song of love boat theme.

 

Also, during this pandemic I am doing retro.

I found my VHS tapes  of My 3 sons and i am watching. 

Speaking of Donny Osmond, I bet he is glad rhe Vegas show ended last year

Love my Mavic Air 2.  A little more expensive than the Mini but rock solid in the wind and I use the 4K/60 video setting quite a bit for smooth slo-mo video. I considered the Mini because it's a great little drone and it's less than 250g in weight, and therefore doesn't need to be registered with the FAA.  FAA registration is easy though and only costs $5 for 3 years.

Oh no, it's sad!  Yes, Donny Osmond is ashamed of his hillbilly family, but I'm sure Gopher, Julie, Isaac and the Doc can set him straight.

 

Our daughter is now watching every episode made of "The Amazing Race."

Big fan of the Amazing Race

 

Actually met Phil at Dulles. They were filming a cable show where they took someone for 48 hours on a trip of a lifetime. I had to sign a release for my two seconds of air time

They were actually in the middle of filming a new season when coronavirus hit Europe.  I truly hope they can finish this season and have many more.

Same here.  One season they traveled through Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Muscat, Oman, among other places.  We were so intrigued we decided to go an Arabian Gulf cruise.  One of our most memorable ever.
