Alcohol!

No mostly red wine, or an Appletini! Not much for Fru Fru drinks, too sweet, with one exception! They had a drink on the Westerdam called a dirty Banana which was very good! My non-alcoholic drinks are mostly Diet Dr. Pepper or Diet Pepsi. BTW, how do you know our cabin number. I don't even have that memorized! LOL!

Rita..........look at post #13 on this thread. That's where I found your cabin number. You are one deck below us, same side of the ship, and just a little aft of us.

The hard drive was giving me problems, so my desktop is in the shop today.....hope to get it back tonight.

My brother winters in Bermuda Dunes. Is that fairly close to where you live??

Heheh been awhile and I forgot I posted that! So you will be close by. No I haven't heard of Burmuda Dunes. What part of Southern Calif. is it located?

Hi Rita and Rick,

Rita, Char will be back to take care of Snuggles. Actually, did she just get back?

Rick, Hope you got your computer back! We will probably have the laptop with us even though I hate using it. Don't think he'll let me pull off bringing a keyboard with so will have to manage! However, will definitely sneak a mouse in or go insane.

Ok, Only two Saturdays to go before we are on board and getting ready for dinner! Countdown should start moving at warp speed now!

Good morning Rita and Donna...........

Bermuda Dunes is part of the Palm Springs area.......just south of Palm Desert.

It's great to have my desktop back. I installed a program to supposedly clean up my registry files...........and that was a couple of hundred dollar mistake!! I use my laptop in my business as a realtor, during open houses, and to keep most of our cruising pictures for viewing. I may bring it this trip. Bobbie thinks it's a waste of weight, but we have some wonderful pictures of past cruises.

I brought out our first item to be packed this morning. A pair of binoculars!!

See you 2 weeks from this Friday!!!

Rick

Renorita...........I had to look up Niland, and interesting that you are just off of Hiway 111. If you were to take that north..........you would be in Palm Desert. Your winters are like ours........lots of sunshine and warm days.

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving all!!

Yes silly I know where Palm Desert is, we shop there all the time! I just hadn't heard of Burmuda Dunes, but know Cathedral City, Indian Springs, La Quinta, etc.

We board the Mercury 2 weeks from today!! The excitement is starting to build.

Thank you so much for the good wishes! Yes I think we will have a two week toast! Lets see, at four I will have a mud slinger! Dru will have a glass of wine!
Hope they have a Dirty Banana on the Mercury! They had them on the Westerdam, and it was the only Fuu Fuu drink I really really liked!
