Is this a good price?

Yes, except it's an IT failure, not the real price.

Happy Easter to all here who celebrate! 
 

Finally sitting down after the family has left and while Andy handles cleanup duty.  It was warm enough ( barely) for Abby & Ellie to hunt Easter eggs outside.  Dinner was glazed spiral ham, mashed potatoes, carrots and roasted asparagus with Andy’s famous carrot cake for dessert.  I tried a new appetizer today, Greek olive medley baked in olive oil with garlic & rosemary. When it comes out of the oven, I nestled in some burrata cheese to get melty and served it with toasted baguette slices.  It was a definite hit.  No food pictures - I always forget as I’m trying to get everything served.  
 

@Luckynana Maryann, I meant to say this the other day. I’m so sorry about your dear friend Lois. Thankfully you have many wonderful memories. 
 

We recently finished The Gentlemen which was great and are currently watching Bodies on Netflix.  It’s interesting but not really what I expected, specifically the almost Sci-Fi aspect.  We only have a couple more episodes so we’ll be on the hunt for something new to watch.  Maybe something a little more lighthearted after those two lol. It might be time to rewatch Schitt’s Creek.  

Deb, the olive appetizer sounds yummy. And everything is always delicious with burrata!😘
 

We are watching High Seas on Netflix. It is not a brand new series (from 2019, 2020), but very interesting for me since it is about a cruise ship. 3 Seasons, several episodes. Binged through seasons 1 and 2. Currently started Season 3.

I looked at the price for Beach Club, but $219 is not what I would be willing to pay.  I was able to book it for a great price.......but lost that cruise r/t Covid.   I will keep a watch on the price.

 

Pat

Pat,

please post if you find something tolerable. We had also booked at great rates ($75 ) earlier but that sailing did not happen. The $219 is claimed as a sale price by Royal !!!!!!! I do see that the cabana at $1999 is reduced from its $3999 price, great! But $1999 I would rather put towards a new cruise. That's just my way of looking at it.

Just followed!  I just realized you can label your bottles opened, unopened, and empty as well.  

 

My wife just shakes her head at me with this 🙂  I've got a few open bottles that are my mixers, about 10 nice bottles that are open and I drink neat occasionally, and about 30 unopened.  I'm kinda following a self-imposed rule now that I can't open one until I've emptied one (I'm about one pour away from emptying my Smoke Wagon, and debating which I'll open next), and I SHOULD have a rule that I can't buy one unless I empty one...but what are ya gonna do 🤷‍♂️

Hust downloaded the app. I want to play. Just need to figure it out.

@dani negreanu How are you? Have you been to a doctor?

 

Thanks for asking. Very slight improvement, but it's almost 2 weeks!!! Yes, I've been to the family doctor a week ago, he prescribed a syrup for my awful cough, said my lungs are clean, just give it time.... ☹️

@Husky1987 @SteelCityCruiser10 just got the app figured out and added my collection. Follow me as SeaDog. I’m following Mark@SteelCityCruiser10 but need your user Larry?

I wish there was a hug emoji and not just like and thanks.  So frustrating not getting over a cough.  Take care.

I found out I was over watering....especially orchids. Till I read 3 ice cubes once a week and now they are doing OK.

Talking of orchids, haven't heard from ReneeFLL, the orchid (and Mary Francis) authority....Renee I was going to abbreviate Mary Francis, but thought otherwise. Hope you guys are on a wonderful cruise.

.... and I'm still sick as a cat/dog. Must be a wild type of flu.

Very frustrating.

Thanks for thinking of me. I just haven't had much free time. We're trying to get as much as possible done around here in the next week before our cruise. Been working at it for about the last several weeks.

Day 6- 3/31 On the second day of Okayama, we take the local train to Kurashiki and visited the Bikan Historic Area which is a reconstruction of old villages.  You can stroll through the streets with the many shops or taste different kinds of snacks and food or just enjoy the whole scenery.

A Snoopy Chicolat shop for those who love Snoopy (🙋‍♀️me).

 

A Father Christmas Christmas shop for @Sea Dog Greg

 

A man riding his bike with his cat on his shoulder reminds me of the first cat that Greg had that loved being on his shoulder. 

 

And finally, a sushi dinner

One of these years we should add a CC bourbon trail getaway to all the cruise vacations!

 

 

Love your idea. 
 

Our SIL was one of the football coach for Eastern Kentucky University—— Smack in the middle of the “Bourbon Trail “. 
 

He collected a few souvenirs while working there. 
 

Yup.

All those so souvenirs and he rarely drinks, always training and the “refreshments” are not on his diet. 

 

Here is where they are stored.

High Seas was very good.The Lead Actress is fluent in English and has appeared in some wonderful films.

Yeah I hear you!  My collection is in a constant state of construction much like PA turnpike lol 😂 I’m still fairly new to bourbons compared to many.

It’s fun to taste different ones. I am actually going to a tasting on Wednesday for High and Wicked which should be interesting.

We went out for dinner on Easter Sunday.

We've talked about a lot of things but I am pretty sure I know what you are referring to. I'll be thinking about you.

 

Don't you have an Odyssey cruise coming up soon?🤔
