Thx for sharing this!!
Well, that beach idea sounds good, we did take the shuttle and shopped at the flea market and then ate at a cafe, which was nice. It was just alittle hot and humid.
In Monaco we did take the train to the palace. At the time, my issue was that we had to wait an hour in the train station and then climb up all the steps to the palace getting off the train. My dad was with us and it was too much for him (he had a heart attack a few years ago.) He was breathing heavily and really struggling. So in retrospect, I wish I had just booked the DCL excursion that day. I ran into Maryann and she indicated that her excursion was really nice. I just keep being so afraid that he would have a health emergency.
I've heard that Eze was wonderful but we didn't have any umpf to go there after everything else we did that day. I would like to go back and check it out.....did you book the third cruise?!!
What to do in Barcelona after cruise, I am thinking about heading to Madrid for a look see then flying back to Boston From there?
So much to plan so little time!
HEY!!! YOU STOP THAT!!!!
that's because he's a ding-dong!
You tell him, Barb!
he was trying to steal your job. Well, I am showing my bias but I do find walking relaxing, as opposed to being in a tour bus shuttled around, but I can see that I might be in the minority here. My idea of a wonderful relaxing day is to wander around a walkable city with some idea of what I want to see but plenty of time to get sidetracked as well.
Stealing -- no question whatsoever
to walk. Although, I have a feeling this will be a verr port intensive cruise also. Thank goodness I got a deck 2 room. Starboard this time so that we are away from the laundry room
But even for those that don't want too dress up - please come - we've got to take a bling picture. Speaking of - where's Mike? Missed him the last couple days. No problem. Now I really need to look at my pics from the cruise and put them somewhere that anyone can look at them. I'm going to make that my mission this month.
Barb - please do - I can't wait to get a look at some of the spots we are going to be at. Especially Russia - got anything now? 
( I did mention that patience is not my strong point?)

Why you were in this case and all other cases.
Apology accepted.
Sorry about that but at least you have the paycheck!!
SISTERHOOD OF THE CRUISING BALLYHOOERS!!!Robert, DD and I will be hitting Madrid next April. We are scheduled to do 2 days there and I can keep a heads up for you if you want? From there we will go to Barcelona but lots of us have done that if you haven't. Lots of places to go and stay there. Upon my return to Barcelona, a married couple-friend and I split the cost of a 2 bedroom apt with a kitchenette and washer/dryer. It was about a 10 minute walk (that was a slow pace) from Las Ramblas but for the price much better than a hotel room. We'd walk to buffets and then we'd walk off all our food. It was also literally across the street from the subway which we could have taken to the main hub just a few stops later. That's always an option if you want.
OH! We get to be voyeurs again! Delish!
Well, first off, he's a man, second -
I
As for The Prince and Princess Night party - if no one wants to bring a formal, try just a basic black dress with a small tiara - I am thinking about doing this. Normally I would reconsider it but because there's a slight possiblityof having 3 formal nights, I might go ahead and get a formal. It was a lot of fun.
No problem. Now I really need to look at my pics from the cruise and put them somewhere that anyone can look at them. I'm going to make that my mission this month.
Blog it!
but getting my nails done is one of them.
Blog it!
Have I mentioned posting pics is a foreign language to me and have no clue what to do with them?

So we will probably be sitting between tons of kids, but I know I'll be having a good time. DH is a saint!
Tomorrow night DH & I are going to dinner in NYC and to see Mary Poppins on Broadway (my b'day gift). Really looking forward to it! I was Mary Poppins in a play in First Grade and she & I have been tight ever since!
