Nancy....Hope you have a blessed birthday!!

Another day in paradise!!

Started the day feeling discombobulated and haven't gotten any better!!!!!!

Dd attempted some shopping in town and said there is a several hour wait for cars to park in the one mall...NUTS...

Sorry retailers but if you expect me to wait in that you are sadly mistaken...INTERNET here I come!!!! Maybe I'm totally impatient but yikes!

After seeing all the press on Oasis I'm actually getting pretty excited....I was always slightly leary of such a big ship but soooo glad we have two weeks to check it all out.

Lunch is over so I guess I better get back to work

Have a great Sat y'all

Happy Birthday, Nancy!

Wow, they sure got all fired up over on the other roll call about the brown water on Radiance didn't they? Doubt if they would have even noticed it if the pic of the bathtub hadn't been posted. It doesn't look like that coming out of the faucet.

You noticed that also. I have to admit that with a tub when you turn the shower on it does accumulate and you get a broader perspective of just how brown that water really can get.

I always check when I turn the water on in the morning and if it looks suspicious I always get a glass and check it out.

I think the most disgusting sight with the rusty water is when you flush the toilet and it fills up with it. Now that's enough to turn anyone's stomach.

Patti, your words paint such a lovely picture. LOL!!! I agree, use bottled water if you want to brush your teeth if the water looks suspicious. I'm sure its fine to use, but it does play with your mind.

I think we'll take our suggestion and on Friday evening walk to Filippi's for supper. Is it an ok neighborhood to walk to....about 5:30-6pm or so? By the way, since you've stayed at the Hampton before, is there a Walgreens or CVS nearby?

Also, remember our cabin attendant on the 2006 Hawaii cruise, Fannie? Do you still see her working on Radiance? She is still the best we've ever had.

Oh, the neighborhood is fine and is well lit. Just ask the front desk and they will give you directions, though from what I remember......... when you walked out the front door of the Hampton we turned right out of the door to the first street. Then another right up to India street (I believe that was 2 blocks up) and then a left onto India street. The restaurant will be on your right side. Remember, it's a store front.

There is a drug store within walking distance, but nothing like what we are used to back here. There is a huge grocery/drug store across from the big shopping mall. Unfortunately I can't remember the name of the store, but if you want transportation there, the hotel van will take you.

If you are taking the HoHo bus or trolley...............I'll bet you'll find something along your route.

How could anybody forget Fannie? She was a real sweetheart. No, I did not see her in April of this year, but I do remember asking about her when we did Hawaii in 2008 and somebody mentioned that she was on the ship but they did not know what deck she had.

Guess we'll be on a mission to see if we can find Fannie.

Thanks for the recipe Patti, I have two cans of yams, and have been wondering what to do with them! Never heard of Mrs. Paul's candied yams Sheila, but isn't there a website where you can buy discontinued food items? I remember seeing it on the food network.

I am trying to make most everything without fat this year, as my niece with the pancreatis is finally starting to eat a little, but no fat and no alcohol. But I don't think she likes yams, so the casserole should be okay.

I am 90% packed! Yippee! I still have that little shoe problem though Patti! lol!

Good Sunday Morning from a rainy south

Did a littile Holiday shopping online at Crate & Barrell last night, I do love their linens. Ordered a red duvet with pillow shams...

Thanks for the tip Barb! I haven't shopped at C&B in years, but am always looking for good linens! Love what you picked out

Nothing big planned today... Ray wants to try out a new restaurant for lunch since the Bears don't play until tonight. Will also clean a little and then just relax! Happy Sunday all!

So, when do you all leave me here, posting all by myself???
