Wendylee Posted February 21, 2020 Report Posted February 21, 2020 We will be on the Allure a week from Sunday and can't wait. The Corona Virus threw us for a loop, but after careful research we are moving ahead. We come from cold country and want to get out of these arctic temps. SteveinSC, teddy and Ogilthorpe 3 Quote

We had quite an arctic situation in South Carolina, yesterday. There was actual snow falling from the sky....it left a trace of a dusting on everything, but the ground. I think we will be ok. Kids had a school delay this morning. Nothing we couldnt overcome. Keep us in your thoughts, prayers, send some good vibes into the universe....whatever all of yall believe in. #CarolinaStrong ...and 43 days till Rhapsody out of Tampa. Wife scolded me and told me to quit adding stuff to the Amazon "cruise list". #SteveStrong PRebecca, RCIDreamer96 and WAAAYTOOO 1 2 Quote
Ampurp85 Posted February 21, 2020 Report Posted February 21, 2020 @SteveinSC I said a deep, strong prayer that God would see you through this natural disaster he caused. WAAAYTOOO, FManke, SteveinSC and 1 other 1 3 Quote

Ampurp85 Posted February 21, 2020 Report Posted February 21, 2020 @FManke What is weird is that it is totally normal to grill in the snow. We've been in our backyard and look over to see the neighbors in their down coats doing the same. SteveinSC and WAAAYTOOO 1 1 Quote

Ampurp85 Posted February 21, 2020 Report Posted February 21, 2020 @FManke That's also when patio furniture comes out at the restaurants downtown. Nothing like enjoying a meal in the sunny, cold breeze SteveinSC 1 Quote

Its agony, and I just want my embarkation day to GET HERE. What do yall do to deal with the agony, the torture, the slow death of WAITING? Same! We just had this snow here in NC and I'm wanting palm trees. I can't book but one cruise every few years and this will be the first time for my kids. The fact that it's a surprise for them is making it worse. My poor mom (who is going too) has to hear me talk about it all the time. 178 days to go. SteveinSC and WAAAYTOOO 1 1 Quote

Ampurp85 Posted February 21, 2020 Report Posted February 21, 2020 @SteveinSC Well you might sell your soul for Lou Malnatis or Pizano's, way better than Giordanos pizza. Quote

My soul? Im still paying the mortgage on it from a Brazilian steak house incident in 2011 .....but if youre saying there is better Chicago style pizza than Giordanos, youve got my interest. Ive been to Chicago once....and ive been smitten with Giordanos ever since. Quote
Ampurp85 Posted February 21, 2020 Report Posted February 21, 2020 @SteveinSC Two words.....SausagePatty.... ButterCrust. Also yeah those Brazilian steakhouses get a hold of you and next thing you know you feel much light since they took some of your soul. New Orleans got me with beignets too, who would have thunk bread and powder sugar? That is why when I am not on vacation or cruising, I am on a strict eat-what-you-cook-only diet. It stops me from offering up my soul and overindulging. SteveinSC 1 Quote

We relaxed, went to CATS ("meh" in my opinion), Caribbean line dancing class, ship tour, flow rider, mini golf, drink package... and the list is unending. We loved the formal night activities. And we walked those stairs every day...Only took the elevator once...and that was on the tour. Quote
