Where Oh Where is My Driver's License?

Karen, April and Bob made us a great Friday dinner. After we were filled, we played a game then went to bed by 10 pm. After all, we all got up early and Hawaii is 3-hrs earlier which means it was near 1:00 am Calif time.

Everyone slept well and a couple of us enjoyed the sunrise this morning while others - them teenagers who can sleep for hours - got some extra beauty sleep! If you look closely, you can pick out Bob running.


While Bob ran, Bill and Karen enjoyed a beautiful morning walk around the lagoons.


After breakfast off to lagoon 1 for some snorkling. There are 4 lagoons so we must try them all. Lagoon 1 is in front of the new Disney Resort hotel shown in the background while April and Kayley enjoy the warm water.


All of us had a great time snorkeling and saw lots of fish and turtles. After lunch on the beach, more snorkeling and a swim in the pool.



For dinner, we ate in our condo and enjoyed each others company on our 2nd day in paradise. For dinner, Karen made her famous mac-n-cheese...um, good!


So why the title? After we got back from the beach and cleaned up, Bill could not find his driver's license. He had it and his room key at the beach and put it in Karen's beach bag. We looked everywhere and finally concluded it must have fallen out at the beach. Bill began looking online to see how to get another - he needed it for ID and the rental car and was frustrated. We looked everywhere twice. Bob asked when he had it last and everyone was giving Bill the third degree. After searching several times, in every place conceivable, Karen had an epiphany and found it. The license slipped inside her Kindle!

Around, Around and Around We Go!

Good morning all! This morning we woke up to a beautiful sunrise from our cabin as we approached our Rome (Civitavecchia) port which is approximately an hour and half from Rome.  You may be wondering what the mystery was about Rome that I indicated in yesterday's blog.  Well, since we've all been to Rome, we decided we didn't want to brave the crowds and congestion of Rome, so we pre-arranged a tour guide to take us into the countryside where one of the previous Pope's had lived (Castel Grandofo).   As we departed the port and approached a roundabout, we decided we didn't need to visit that location. After several around, around and around again in the roundabout and discussion with Matteo (our guide), we decided to go to Orvieto, a beautiful hilltop village. It was a long ride through the beautiful Italian countryside with a few villages along the way.   At one point we saw a sheep scampering along the highway all by himself.  We hoped he got back to his flock, and

Slowly arriving in Cannes

Image
 The first leg of our cruise is from the port of Tarragona, Spain to Cannes, France.  It is such a short distance that we traveled very slowly.  At one point the monitor in our cabin said we were traveling at .05 knots.  So, at a snail's pace we arrived at Cannes.  It was a beautiful day and it looked like someone sprinkled glitter on the ocean. Cannnes is a tender port which is always a challenge, so we did as we were told and waited in the theater for tickets to get on a tender.  Their organization left a lot to be desired and required patience on our part.  Finally, we got on a tender and when arriving at the port we met up with our private tour guide, Edith.  We jumped in her van, and she started driving through Cannes informing us all along the way about Cannes.   Cannes There was a lot of road construction, and we were glad to get past that and enjoy the beauty of the beach road as it left Cannes behind and brought us to the 16th century town of Artibes.  The town is surround

“The Most Beautiful Spring Garden in the World”

Image
Today was a gorgeous, sunny, chilly day. This was our last adventure on this cruise and our last tour where everyone got to attend the annual tulip festival at Keukenhof Gardens - “The Most Beautiful Spring Garden in the World” . The gardens cover over 100-acres and are covered in spectacular tulips everywhere you look. Nearly 1-million visitors a year attend this event and today was not the exception. We arrived from our ship at 9:15am – like arriving at Disneyland when they first open on the weekend – and boy were we grateful to beat the noon time crowds! It was hard to make much progress walking around because we were lured into stopping every few steps to take a picture.   It was so beautiful.   There were millions of tulips of every variety and color, so hopefully you won’t get bored looking at tulip pictures.     Between the 3 couples, we probably took over 100 pictures and sorry you can’t smell them. On our last night at dinner, we reminisced about our week together on
