Sorry Ive been gone for so long, being back home and having to do my daily routine and chores really takes away from my TR time on the DIS. I seem to only have time for lasting!
I'm sitting here contemplating an avocado toast and staring at all this food porn! From the wonderful lunch to the CL plate to that dinner!!!! (Not to mention the menu).
Looks delicious. And that picture of you and Fran is gorgeous. I love your bling. Is that the black dress? Will we see a full length picture of you in it?
Sounds like the spa was worth it.
I cant wait to get back on another ship! Even the not so good food porn days were better than me having to cook at home!
That is the black dress, and no
I didnt get a full length picture of myself. I was just too tired that night. Probably from all the stuff I did that day!
Probably the massage kicked my butt!
Fran has the bluest eyes.....just an observation I felt I needed to voice.
Awww shucks! Ill have to tell her, she will be flattered!
Ah a spa day sounds so good right now. Lovely pic of Fran and you!
Im sure you enjoyed yours today too! Thanks!
Aside from Fran not feeling well that sounds like one fabulous day. Loving the pictures of the ship.
At least that is one of the luxuries of being on the ship. She had in-room entertainment, all her meals were prepared and barely had to leave the room except for dinner!
Oh my gosh! You guys really did break the bank on this cruise! It looks like you were having an amazing time though, given Fran's pain levels. I also did the Palo brunch because Alicia had recommended it and I was so jealous looking at your pictures and knowing that I couldn't have those yummy foods right now! I will have to make a Palo dinner reservation on our next
Disney cruise, whenever that happens, because everything on your table and menu looked superb as well. Did you ever find the rearview mirror and other thing you were expecting in that plethora of packages? And is there a back story to that old car you guys got, or was it just a spur of the moment kind of purchase?
She did the same thing on our Alaska cruise, we did these excursions that I never would have dreamed of a helicopter, seaplane, hydrofoil boat, plus jewelry and stuff! All I have to do is get her out of the house near shiny objects and shes all over it. Theres still more to come!
I just found the receipts when I took the stuff out to take pictures of!
I did the brunch because Alicias trip looked so good and took her recommendation for the first day at sea. I think we will repeat that on our cruise out of Galveston.
No we didnt find that rearview mirror. We also never found a computer that was supposedly delivered, but at least they sent a replacement. Heres the car story. Frans first car was a Cougar. I think it caught fire or got in a wreck. About 10 years ago she got this. We had it COMPLETELY restored (rebuilt engine, new seats that look just like the original, everything) about 4 years ago.
Then a few years later she got this, thinking she could drive it daily.
Then she wanted a show car, so she got this. It was also detailed and restored on the surfaces (no engine work).
Then this year we got some extra money from an investment that her father left her which cashed out, and she started to go crazy. She always wanted one of these, but now we found out it cant be registered in California, so it is back up for sale. This is a replica of a 1936 Auburn Speedster.
Then she decided she needed something a little less fancy, so we bought this one at auction.
The 1928 Auburn, the car I showed earlier, is an ACTUAL 1928 Auburn, and she felt she had to have a real one instead of just a repicar. Ive told her we REALLY have to stop buying cars (we might run out of money) because we just dont have any more garage spaces to put them in!
We, too, ordered in room service for lunch one day on the ship and we really enjoyed it.
Oh man, I really miss the pool area. WAY better than the pool area on the Dream. It doesn't look busy at all! And is that a buff older gentlemen behind you in that one picture you took of yourself?? I'm not sure how or even why I saw it, but was thinking, dang, hopefully DH can look like that one day when he's older!!
Ah, the massage. Did they give you the spiel afterwards? I really wish we could have skipped that part because I was so relaxed and the last thing I wanted to do was be taught a lesson on their products.
Again, something from your TR that sounded fun. I didnt even notice the older gentleman in the photo! Im sure your DH will look better!
I didnt get any kind of spiel after the massage, but I know that they normally do one.
Great updates
We've never actually ordered room service on either of our cruises, something we aim to put right next time!
The Captain's Gala menu looks pretty good, we were in Palo for this night when we were on the Fantasy
Thanks for the great pictures of the adult area
I liked ordering room service! It was neat just to hide in our room for that one day. Id look out the verandah every so often, but we were just tucked away in the room watching movies and eating, it was kind of fun. We never take time to do that and relax at home.
LOVE LOVE LOVE your trip report...more please! I miss the ship so much I stare at some of your pics!
How's the baby? I remember your trip reports
Well, sorry to say I only have one more day left! But it was a good one too!
This sounds like a lovely relaxing day. We had room service for the first time on our last cruise and both had the steak sandwich. We really loved it, but on the Magic it was in a sub roll.
Corinna
The steak sandwich was really good. Normally I cant finish something, but I ate all of that and my Macaroni and Cheese.
Loving your trip report.
Fran is a sharp dresser. What is on her tie? Is that a polar bear? Too cute!
She is a pretty sharp dresser when she wants to be. Yes that is a Polar Bear, she is an honorary Bear Club member!
We are thinking of trying one...
I hope you guys do, I think you will like it!
your day sounded nice and relaxing, except for Fran being in pain. I know it puts a damper on things. but you both spent some nice quality time together.
Thanks for all the food porn, I am now starving after my yogurt for breakfast.
Unfortunately she is in pain a lot of the time at home too, but yes, we did get some nice time together, and I didnt even get on my computer once!
I feel like an old fogie after 2 nights without sleep.
That's a nice pic of you and Fran too.
Cute dress you've got on. Love the food coma photo. Can't wait to get to my Boma pics in my trip report. I was in a Boma coma after that meal.
Boma Coma!
Love it! I cant wait to read about it!
While we were on our way home from my parents, we stopped at the outlets at Gilroy and I picked up a few new dresses. One for Palo Brunch, and one each for Formal night and Semi Formal night!
