10/24/2009 Bash on the Boat Cruise (I'm with BOB) Chapter #9

[Walt & Di]

morning DI
you too shy to say good morning to your old buddy mikey.?

Hi Mike Have a great day. Walt is playing golf. I went grocery shopping this morning. Say hi to Robin. We leave a week from today to go to Milwaukee. Hope the weather stays nice for us. Walt is so excited. He has been planning this for trip for one year. It should be fun. Diane

 

[Walt & Di]

OH WOW! HARLEY TRIP FO for ME.

dont forget a lovely lady we call mother goose.

She was left out intentionally.

as long as i get my scrambled eggs, bacon, mickey waffle, donut, and fresh pineapple, i'm good to go. (separate plates of course.)

robin gets oatmeal every morning. how annoying is that??

I got a chocolate croissant and a big bowl of raspberries every morning! I had to ask for the croissant though. Did anyone else? I think they were being stingy with them.

What is the weirdest one food item you ate on a cruise?

I had nothing but asparagus for lunch one day from Topsiders. I'm not sure if it was Rachael or another KKers daughter that looked at my plate and her eyes grew as big as saucers! It was the biggest plate of asparagus you ever saw. I'm looking forward to that again.

And, what is the one food item you are most looking forward to next year?

Mine would be the turkey panini.

OK, here are a few pictures of our day at Zoo a la Carte

Entrance to the Milwaukee County Zoo:

A few topiaries:

A camel eating ice cream (actually, that's not icecream but it sure sounded more appetizing than what it really is )

A giraffe relaxing in the shade:

Chuck's nachos:

Karen, this one is just for you..cheesecake heaven:

And Bendy, I thought of you too!

Two hard workers (Stacy and Kristin)

And last but not least, will someone tell this big kid to get out of the Kiddie Train?

A Panini is a sandwich usually made out of ciabatta bread. If it's grilled (like it is on DCL) it's like a grilled cheese. Buttered on the outside of the bread and grilled in a panini press to make nice little grill marks on the outside. I love the turkey one's on the ship and got mine at Goofy's Galley right behind Scoops. (I think that's Goofy's, right?) YUMMO!!!!!

I wonder if the RepoBOBs will get any sleep tonight?

We will miss trying to get any pics of the Magic sailing tomorrow. Jenna's dad's viewing is tomorrow night (6pm-9pm) in Northeast Philly(about 45 minutes from us). By the time we get home from that, the Magic will have already sailed.

well thats an easy one. our first cruise in 2001 we thought it would be romantic to go to Palo. once we got in there i looked at the menu and knew i was in trouble. nothing for a picky mikey to eat.
being to shy to ask for any alternates i order the lamb.(never had it before. i'm never one to try new foods) needless to say, to this day, i can still taste that poor little lammy. the waiter felt really bad because i wasnt eating and finally asked me if i wanted something else. a steak perhaps? so i said YES!!! steak and fries(separate plates TOO!!)
anyway, to this day we laugh about it. never been back to palo's.
it was ok but just not our kind of place. i guess too fancy for this simple boy.


as for looking forward to...
my crazy wife says she cant wait to get a mango on castaway cay. and a strawberry smoothie of course.
i told her they sell mangos here, but she says they taste better on the island.
