Sushi

What foods would you like to make? I can make a lot of foods but never tried making sushi, which I love.

People often ask me what is my favorite cruise line. That’s a really hard question to answer because even within the cruise lines, some ships can be better than others. Holland America For instance, we were on our first Holland America cruise on the Oosterdam. It’s a relatively smaller ship with less than 2000 guests.Continue reading “Sorting out the Cruise Lines”

Both

Dogs or cats? I love both! At one point I had 5 dogs and 6 cats! Loved them all. Dogs are loyal. Easily trained and give unconditional love. Cats are independent and fearless. Male cats tend to be more affectionate. My females were hunters. I saw one catch and eat a squirrel. My male catsContinue reading “Both”

Everything

Which activities make you lose track of time? I lose track of time whether I am reading, writing or talking. I lose track of time over a card game of solitaire.

Adventure All The Time

Are you seeking security or adventure? I love adventure. I guess that’s why I love to travel, especially to places off the beaten track. I also like to ride roller coasters. It’s a thrill. I love meeting new people. People of different cultures. People with different beliefs than mine. During my working years, I changedContinue reading “Adventure All The Time”

Off On Our Next Adventure

It was so difficult packing for this trip. We are going to England and then cruising to Iceland. It is a wee bit colder there than it is in south Florida. So mostly long sleeve stuff with rain gear and hopefully that works out. Our ride by Lyft was fairly uneventful. We arrived at theContinue reading “Off On Our Next Adventure”
