The Spa on Apex

I won a day at the spa on the first night of the cruise and decided to use it on our last day. Bruce was going with me and the day rate was $82 but the lady at the desk allowed him in for free. If you buy the thermal suite package for the lengthContinue reading “The Spa on Apex”

Our First Visit to Jamaica

We woke up this morning to a beautiful rainbow! It was beautiful but on the other hand, it might mean we are facing a rainy day. Hopefully, the rain has passed. Up early again but this time we had to wait because it took a bit longer to get the all-clear from Jamaican authority. It’sContinue reading “Our First Visit to Jamaica”

Turtles in Grand Cayman

Bruce and I decided to join a tour today that went to the Cayman Turtle Centre. It started on the wrong foot having to rise and meet up in the theater by 8:15. For some reason, this always reminds me of being herded like cattle. Turned out it wasn’t too bad. We had a shortContinue reading “Turtles in Grand Cayman”

Cruising the Caribbean in November

We are off on another adventure. This time on one of Celebrity’s newer ships, the Apex. It’s part of the Edge series and we are loving it! We started off with our Lyft ride to Port Everglades. I use Lyft because I earn 5 X points on every dollar spent using my Chase Sapphire card.Continue reading “Cruising the Caribbean in November”

Career Path

What alternative career paths have you considered or are interested in? Well I’m retired and that’s a lovely career path. I wake when I want, I go when I want, I sleep when I want. No bosses. No employees. This is the ultimate. But if I had my life to do over, I might addContinue reading “Career Path”

Girls Trip Part 2

What a way to start a morning in the beautiful surf. Lauren was off to the gym while Kadyn and I enjoyed our time on the beach. A beautiful day chilling. No worries. We ate at the Italian restaurant and the food was good. We decided not to have high expectations but it was muchContinue reading “Girls Trip Part 2”

Girl’s Trip 2024

We were off on another adventure. This time to Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. We met up at Miami Airport to begin our journey. For those who haven’t traveled to the Dominican Republic, you have to fill out paperwork on line to board the plane. You also need to fill out paperwork to leave the country.Continue reading “Girl’s Trip 2024”

A Million to ??

If you had a million dollars to give away, who would you give it to? Actually I would set up trusts for our grandkids. We have 9 of them so they would have money for college or to buy a home. A million doesn’t really go far when you have 6 kids. But we’d helpContinue reading “A Million to ??”

Hurricane Preparedness

Hurricane Milton is heading straight towards the state of Florida. It’s a massive storm and it just was clocked in at 150 mph. Its a cat 4. Hopefully, we will be spared but we are preparing anyway. We are filling up on gas. It’s always good to have a full tank. The lines were longContinue reading “Hurricane Preparedness”

A Trip To North Carolina

My daughter and her husband were going away for the weekend so Bruce and I flew from West Palm Beach Airport to Raleigh on Breeze Airlines. It’s a relatively new no-frills airline started by the guy who started Jet Blue. Our seats were roomy which cost a bit more. And the plane was clean andContinue reading “A Trip To North Carolina”
