  1. I had to look this one up.
  2. THank you. I love your pictures. Especially the one with the boat, palm tree, and storm clouds. Mr. Dark and Dangerous Croc was also great.
  3. It is a hit and miss. I used to only find them in New England. Now I can't find them at all. When I asked, I was told it can be a hit or miss. Oh well. I can't blame those donuts for my weight gain.
  4. Only after they got rid of my favorite - the french cruller.
  5. I don't have weird dreams. I just stop sleeping for about 2 days prior to the trip. I am so tight that I can't relax until I walk onto an airplane. Then I just let go of the stress. Because I know that everything is out of my hands. If I forgot something - oh well. Time to switch to island time.
  6. Thank you for bringing us along. I loved your blog and pictures. Congrats on D+.
  7. I love your shirts. A little dog hair is ok by me. Your dog is just saying that he would look good in those t-shirts. LOL Great list.
  8. If you have the drink package, I would grab a couple of glasses of wine and some snacks from the WJ. Don't waste money on something you have already paid for. Alternative - you can bring 2 bottles of your own wine on board. Why bring your own when you already have a drink package? Because you know the wine and you will know you will enjoy it. If it is a white, just make sure you refrigerate it prior to coming on board. Put it into an insulated bag to keep cold. Bring a wine opener. As far as 'cheese' - you could always stop at a grocery store and pick up some package cheese, crackers, olives and nuts. It will save you a trip to WJ. Remember, you won't be allowed into your room until around 2 pm +/- 1 hour.
  9. I wonder what is allowed for an around the world cruise, in both laundry and bottles of wine. Can you survive 6 months of cruising with just 1 bottle of wine and 1 bag of free laundry?
  10. Good for you. Too many parents would just break down in and the work.
  11. I like what I am seeing so far. I got to remember the ice tie dying trick.
  12. I have a pop-up mess laundry bag I picked up for my last cruise. I liked using it better than pulling my luggage out from underneath the bed and throw my clothes in there. The idea I loved that was mentioned above is to separate your clothes before you pack them for the trip home. Then when I get home, I can just throw 1 bag into the wash with the correct setting. @asquared17 -I too am a procrastinator. But coming home from a trip is the one time I can put all procrastination aside and put everything away ASAP. Now, if I can just get the clothes out of the dryer ....
  13. @melmar02 - there was a long discussion on how to play slot machines to get the best bang for your buck. I can't remember everything but one thing I do remember is to stay away from any machine that has to pay royalties - like Wheel of Fortune.
  14. We need to hang out in casinos more often for these stories. LOL!
  15. Can't wait to see the results. Ice dying looks interesting. Yes - like watercolors
  16. Thanks. I had some older vacuum seal bags but they need to be hooked up to a vacuum to suck all the air out. I love the idea of separating the wash into different bags. I think that is half the battle of laundry - separating the clothes.
  17. I will be your momma bear three-some. I have a poker face and when I get mad, I can do the momma stare. My 6'5" military officer son has even back down from it. But on average, I don't say anything. But once I let go, I really let go. First touch - ok accident. Second touch - reply with "Please don't touch me". Third touch - SCREAMING AT THE TOP OF MY LUNGS: "Don't touch me!" Then sit back and watch the casino staff come running up. LOL! Ok, maybe I won't scream but that momma bear look will definitely come out. I would also go back to guest service and let them know you don't want your room 'refreshed' but CLEANED! There is only so much a guest should put up with. The only problem with going back to guest service with a complaint, is you will be missing out on the relaxation. I agree about the hand washing - just do it!! Or keep out of public areas. I agree about the itty bitty shrimp. I wonder if they could have made your pasta without onions or could let you know when they will be making your like of potato soup. Great job for branching out and finding a new favorite dessert.
  18. I will hold your beer. And when you get tired, you can hold my beer.
  19. Now I usually would have LOTS of patience. Coming to a room not cleaned on embarkation day would not bother me. But to sleep in the room and still have no cleaning would. You beat your ... that I would be standing in line at guest services. Of course, my husband would not even wait until morning. He would have been down at guest service right after dinner demanding a cleaning. Ah, if this happened to us and you were on the cruise, you would have so much news to report to this group about that crazy couple. I hope you get a clean room soon!!!
  20. Yes, @Xaa, that is exactly what I mean. RC will not let you switch rooms unless 1 original cruiser is still in that room.
  21. You will NOT be able to switch rooms thru RC for this reason: Mel could be moved into M & Y room but it is only a 2 person room. M & Y could be moved into Mel's room but V & J will not be able to move into M & Y room. That is because at least 1 person needs to remain in their originally booked room. If you try to just move yourself, there may be a problem with not only the billing but also the muster station. Yeah, slim chance of you needing to go to your muster station but ....
  22. Girlfriend, you have nothing on scandalous legs! I got both of your thighs covered. LOL! I love how you have coordinated your hair, glasses, and neck pillow. I guess you were not kidding about loving the color purple. I am thinking of coloring a strip of hair a funky color. But I can't decide which part of my hair (my hair is fairly short) and which color. I am thinking of flames - red into orange into yellow. I would keep the color for the summer before going back to my unnatural (aka colored) brown. Nice lunch - good choice with the chocolate martini. Good luck at the casino. Your brother is handsome but too young for me. I guess I can say I am not a cougar. @ckruetze - smart man!
