Monday Musings about Cruising…
I’m back from Canada, eh, and here’s just a quick overview of why I like cruising!
- Spent more than a week with hubby, my sis and brother in law living next door to each other (we live several states apart)
- Wonderful food choices made it easy to eat well and indulge just a little. And no planning, cooking or clean up…
- Only had to take Dramamine for a few days this time…
- Walked literally miles everyday (not to mention the stairs)
- Great entertainment all in one place. A show every night — great music, magic, acrobats and comedy, plus musicians in the common atrium areas…
- An incredibly small, efficient storage system for clothes and personal effects in your stateroom…
- A free upgrade to a stateroom on a higher floor with an obstructed ocean view (that means a lifeboat is partially in front of your window) but, hey, some people pay for that view!
- A special drink of the day and wine with dinner (not included in the price, but still)…
- Visiting six cities without packing up and changing hotels every few days…
- A towel animal on your bed each night — that’s a bulldog!
I’ll give you the flip side later!
Monday Musings About a Little Libation…
I’m having a group of folks over this weekend and I’m looking for some nice fall like drinks that could be made up ahead of time in a pitcher. It’s not really a Halloween party, but it needs to have alcohol for sure. I was thinking various beers and hard ciders? But maybe one type of cocktail, too?
All ideas are welcome!
Monday Musings on Getting Lei’d…
Start with a luau (Old Lahaina Luau is one of the more authentic shows on Maui; my group wanted drama so we picked one that had a silly MC and fire dancers) 😉
Drink mai tais or Blue Hawaiians or even Bikini Blonde;
Try lots of food from the buffet, but skip the poi, which is grayish purple, made from taro, and tastes like you would imagine wallpaper paste does;
Relax and enjoy the show…
