Any one still looking for men's hawaiian shirts? - NOT OUR CRUISE SHIRT. As we are packing I came across a couple of nice shirts - soft colors - I picked up the wrong sizes in my travels, couple large and one medium. I've bring them if anyone is interested. Send me a PM val

You and Bob are a bad influence...went to Goodwill after your comments and so far I think she has found 6+ Hawaiian shirts love the price and some have never been worn

Looks like we will not be alone in port for boarding next weekend. The schedule for port shows the Norwegian Pearl next door at Berth 92.
From what I remember from my previous trips out of the LA cruise port is we all enter the same place. It should be interesting have an additional ship in port with us. The only good thing is that it appears the Pearl is going on a repositioning cruise which means most of the passengers will be being dropped off so hopefully it will not make it too congested. I believe once we enter you stay to the left and it takes you directly to Berth 93 parking where those that are going to Berth 92 stay to the right. Just thought I would share for those few that may be driving themselves.

Sandy is your grandson doing better or would prayers still help?

Prayers are still needed and appreciated. Thanks so much for asking.

Just got a text from DCL telling me to pack my docs were I can get to them.

What does that mean? And they text you now instead of a call. How bizarre!!!

 

[EllaEnchanted]

me too

Why just you two. How very strange.

 

[EllaEnchanted]

Me too. It made me giggle a little.

This must be something new that they are doing at random????

I was checking on my reservation last week and somewhere there was a button to sign up for text or email notifications of important information. I was suprised to get the text today reminding me to bring cruise docs in your carryon. I would have thought that the texts would have been about something more official. Anyway...it was cool.

Gladly accepted. Thank you!

We will send some thoughts and prayers your way. I tried to send you a message but the DIS was down that weekend you posted that you were at Rainbow. I literally live 15 minutes away. If there is anything your family needs while they are there please let me know. Well... at least for this week

Does anyone have any idea what the weather will be like on the sea days? Been to Hawaii, so I think we're ready for that. Been to L.A. Ready for that. Not sure how to look into what it'll be like by the pool. Insight appreciated.

Just got back home from a great weekend with old friends and new Great way to get in the groove of the cruise vacation!

A life lesson to you all.... if you are going to drive 4 hours from home to an event that need dress clothes.... be sure to rememeber to take them with you.

Half way through my drive, it hit me that the garment bag with our dress clothing and other clothes was still at home!! We stopped and I found a wi-fi spot and googled the closest Dress Barn Was able to buy myself a new dress and mom a dressy outfit and 2 new shirts in under 30 minutes.

So I have a new dress for the cruise! Now to get packing!

Friends....it just does not get any easier. My brother and his nurse wife went to Disney World last week. His wife had a conference so he tagged along and they spent 5 days. They came home on Wednesday and on Friday he ended up in the hospital with a blood clot in his leg. This is the second time in 5 years this has happened to him and they suspect it is from flying. Now the problem is they are due to leave on May 4th for a 15 night cruise around Europe leaving from Barcelona. This would mean a 8+ hour flight. They have put him on comiden(sp) a blood thinner and as of now he is in the hospital and the advice from the doctors is to not travel. It just does not get easier my friends. Just needed to vent for him.

I really do understand his pain. This happened to my DD Samantha in 2008 right after our 2007 NYE Magic cruise. Samantha had a blood clot in her leg that traveled into her lungs making it hard to breathe.

She was in the hospital for a week in Florida but then once the numbers were good she was allowed to fly 6 hours home to California. Perhaps his physician will allow him to fly in short hops once his numbers stabilize.
