Since we're not cruisers, no email for us. I'm glad to see them make this transition. As an adult-onset asthma patient, I simple cannot tolerate smoke or even heavy perfume. The smells put my airways into immediate spasm that is difficult to control. I know there will be those opposed to this, and for that I'm sorry.
 
Awwwwww Sly, wonderful pictures.

Anyone else receive that awesome DCL email last night?

No more smoking on balconies after some time in November! Yay!!
Thanks, Muush! We got the email, and like you, we're happy for the policy change. To be fair, we've not had any issues on our cruises with anyone smoking on their verandah next to us, but I know several who have had people smoking right next door, and while it wasn't breaking any rules, it was a nuisance. My mom used to smoke up until a few years ago, and though she was very polite and aware of her habit's affect on those around her, it was hard to see and smell her puffing away. In the long run, it will seem normal.

I've had to break out my inhaler several times on cruises: my verandah and walking through the adult area on the starboard side of deck 9 on the Wonder.

Honestly, I didn't understand what all the hoopla was about, smoking allowed on balcony.
That was because we were never put next to one. Then on RCI Freedom we got stuck next to 2 chimneys.
THE most irritating cruise ever! I think DCL was wise, a great decision.
 
So apparently I'm really starting to wish we were going to WDW or DL for Halloween time.

How many groupies have seen this?

Saw the deal about the Halloween Party, looks a bit more intriguing than the past few. We may have to check that out!
 
How exciting! I think about relocating back to FL, right about November every year!:scared1:

Yes Muushka---but the cold weather is starting to come sooner and sooner here in PA. I'd say we've had measurable snow 3 out of the last 5 years during October!!! Then it takes FOREVER for it to warm up in Spring. Ours Springs can be chilly and we can even get frost and flurries. Now here we are in mid August and we're experiencing several nights of temps in the mid 50's and only highs in the mid 70's. I'm chilly right now and I was wearing a JACKET this morning :scared1::confused: So while I know the heat and humidity in FL during June-Sept time period can be bad---I'll take it over what I have here in PA. I hate being COLD :sad2:

DiznyDi: Boy Maria, you surely have busy days/weeks/months ahead of you. A plan is always good! It will all come together. Moose Dust you don't lose your sanity during the tedious process.
I am a bit crazed Di.... and my classes start back up Aug 26 :scared1: Thanks for the encouragement and Moose dust!!!!! I leave for WDW on Sept 11 so I have much to do with packing and working ahead in my classes since I'll be on the Fantasy for a week too. And yes Muushka.....heard the smoking policy news. I think it's a good one!!!
 
Wishing TammyNC a very Happy Birthday!

Any special plans for tonight JT? Lobster tails, filet mignon, hotdogs and beans?
Enjoy your evening as you celebrate this special day.

Welcome webprinter. Nice to have you here.

DDad and I are planning to do the Halloween Party this year. He hasn't been to F&W since 2008. DD and I were there 2011 and thoroughy enjoyed not only F&W but MNSSHP as well. Trying to decide if we should 'dress-up'. I'll probably just do some shirts for us.....

Maria, just like The Little Red Engine That Could, 'Iknow you can, I know you can'! Work hard now, then reward yourself in the sun for all your efforts! -Love the graphic!:goodvibes
 
Sly -- just popped on here for the first time in many many days.... saw someone refer to the picture of you and your bride at the lodge. I went back a couple of pix to see it... You know, tell that wife of yours that she has the most gorgeous smile!!!! She is very photogenic! (You too, of course!) But she really sparkles for the camera. I'm sure it has a lot to do with that glow of LOVE!!!!!! :)

Hopping off again, folks.... busy days here with school back in session. So sorry I haven't been on reading. I know I'm missing a lot of life's events for everyone!

This is the dilemma we have had when deciding where to live. We hate the weather here and would love to live somewhere warm. We actually had the opportunity to move to Calif. but I didn't care for the location. I would like to stay somewhere on the east coast to stay close to family and my sports teams!
