I think we need a little fluff :)

1. Have you/Will you decorate(d) for the fall?

2. Have you started any Holiday shopping yet?

3. What is one food (or drink) that you look forward to when the weather gets cooler?

Bonus (it was a discussion at work yesterday and wondered others opinions):
4. If you were able to have an inheritance for your children (or maybe you have already experienced this with your own family), and you were able to live comfortably and was not relying on that money to survive, would you rather spend the money while you are alive and watch your children enjoy the money now or would you rather have it given to them when you died?

There are many things for motion sickness too-lol!!



There is sooo much to choose to do on a cruise or you can do nothing at all. We always have a ball. We love to do all the adult shows and adult games and then also

There is so much to do on sea days though or you can choose to just relax and do nothing. I love them because we can sleep late and basically hang out and pick and choose what we all want to do.

Haven't you ever requested something at a restaurant that was not on the menu or a variation of something that was?

Yes, on the cruise the food is included. With the meal plan it is free as you can see by adding up the regular price of the rooms, tickets and the meal plan.

Why? You don't think you can experience things on a ship or meet new friends that will last a lifetime?

You can do the research if you would like. I already did it last year and know how much I saved.

Yes I have. I'm a total Sally when it comes to ordering...BUT, if they don't have what I want, they cannot serve it to me. If I plan the meal myself, I know that I'll get what I want, and even have the added bonus of knowing (without having to trust restaurant personnel, which can also be a problem) exactly what I'm eating.

I've been to plenty of restaurants that either couldn't or wouldn't accommodate my requests.

Funny timing. Opened up my Oct issue of Ladies' Home Journal. There is an article on cruises.

When you look at the itemization, is there a cost for the meal plan? If so, then you're paying for it. If not, and the cost of the meals are indeed a part of the cost of the cruise, then what is the point of having a "meal plan"?
