Taking an 8 year old for the first time...on this 5 day cruise. What do I need to sign her up for? Does anyone have any 8 year old that would like to reply to her and become pen pals before the cruise?

Bring an 8 year old for the first time... What do I need to do? When should I sign her up for things? Is there anyone that wants to become penpals with her before the cruise?

 

[nezy]

Well lets see ya got Florida, the Bahamas, and Cozumel...... most folks here travel to dive. Demographically speaking Colorado is #3 in states with the most certified divers after FL and CA.

Pretty much all the folks we have certified are planning a trip.

Just what I need, motivation to travel someplace warm and ocean-y !

That is really amazing though, that CO is #3, if you think about it.

[bonzie1]

Okay BOB!

I found it! Never would have guessed this in a gazillion years! Too Funny!

Pi Day and Pi Approximation Day are two holidays held to celebrate the mathematical constant π (pi). Pi Day is observed on March 14 (3/14 in American date format), due to π being equal to roughly 3.14. Sometimes it is celebrated on March 14 at 1:59 p.m. (commonly known as Pi Minute). If π is truncated to seven decimal places, it becomes 3.1415926, making March 14 at 1:59:26 p.m., Pi Second (or sometimes March 14, 1592 at 6:53:58 a.m.). Pi Approximation Day may be observed on any of several dates, most often July 22 (22/7 (European date format) is a popular approximation of π). March 14 also happens to be Albert Einstein's birthday.

The first Pi Day celebration was held at the San Francisco Exploratorium in 1988, with staff and public marching around one of its circular spaces, and then consuming fruit pies; the museum has since added pizza pies to its Pi Day menu.[1] The founder of Pi Day, the "Prince of Pi", is Larry Shaw,[2] now retired from the Exploratorium, but still helping out with the celebrations. They have also recently added the first Pi Day celebrations in Second Life.

The Massachusetts Institute of Technology often mails out its acceptance letters to be delivered to prospective students on Pi Day.[3]

Some also celebrate Pi Approximation Day in addition to Pi Day, which can fall on any of several dates:

July 22: 22/7 in nearly all date formats, an ancient approximation of pi
November 10: The 314th day of the year (November 9 in leap years)
December 21, 1:13 p.m.: The 355th day of the year (December 20 in leap years), celebrated at 1:13 for the Chinese approximation 355/113
On March 14, 2004, Daniel Tammet recited from memory 22514 decimal digits of pi.[4] March 14, 1916 (3/14/16 in American date format) is the closest approximation of pi in the last century.

OMG Georgie you are ambitious! That's more information than I will ever need to know about Pi!!! Leave it to Bob to find that obscure celebration!!
Any reason to celebrate huh Bob?? I'll drink to that!

By the way HAPPY IDES OFMARCH!!

 

[Mickey&JoshNut]

Thanks for the info Georgie...I too would never have figured it out...was waiting for Bob to answer....I thought it had something to do with Jimmy Buffett!!!!!

Okay...HAPPY SATURDAY EVERYONE!!!!​

Today so far has been a good day....I went to local chain store (think Canadian equivalent of Target) and I won a free breakfast!!!! KEWL...it was only a $3.99 breakfast but hey...it's something....then I decided since it was a nice sunny day that I would stop at the gas station and get gas and a car wash and...guess what....I won a $50 gas gift card!!!!!! You see the Sunoco gas stations her in Canada have a reward card and you earn points with each gas purchase...well today was my lucky day and when he swiped my card...he told me I won something but I had to answer the skill testing question first.....and then when he swiped my card again and it said I won a $50 gas gift card!!!!!! I was so excited...especially since gas prices here in Canada are through the roof....($1.07/L = $4.05 gal).
