Buon Martedi! Taco Tuesday!  How are you doing? It is a cool, partly sunny morning here in Tucson. Any plans for today? Hey, how about that burst of rain last night?

The coffee is a good Donut Shop Blend, and a second cup will be enjoyed later this morning. Alexa is awake and she said that today is going to be very busy. I asked her to play some "Funk Jazz" for me today.

I have to make a trip out on the airbase to gas up "Bellezza Nera". She has a huge smile on her nameplate because her service visit went great.

We will be heading for Bisbee tomorrow for a birthday party for Raven. We will return on Thursday. Every time we go to Bisbee I think of Sheila, my lifeline, I miss her very much.

Mia Moglie will be going to her weekly (bridge) game this afternoon.

Here is what happened on 18 Feb on our cruise. Enjoy!

We started the day very early because we had to meet up in the "Bliss Theater", for our tour to Coffee Plantations. We left at 8:00am and we returned around 4:00pm. A fantastic and educational tour indeed. 

It was rough going and it took a while to get there due to road construction like here in Tucson. The plantation was 5000 feet above sea level.

The coffee was delicious and the info about growing coffee was very interesting, and the people were very nice. It wasn't too hot either. the bad part was the long bus ride to and from.

Buon Lunedi!  How are you doing? It is a nice, clear morning here in Tucson. I can smell rain in the air. Any plans for today?

The coffee is a good Colombian Blend, and a second cup will be enjoyed later this morning. Alexa is awake and she said that today is going to be a busy one for me today. I asked here to play some "Smooth Jazz" for me today.

I was awakened this morning with a start. I listened to my (mums) voice telling me in the hood and southern language that "God Don't Like Ugly and He Is Not Crazy About Pretty". So, I will keep my eyes and ears open for sure. Something is coming and I am not going to like it. I always pay attention to this feeling.

I will be taking "Bellezza Nera" in for a routine service this afternoon. That will make her smile this afternoon.

My playmate and I saw the movie "Send Help" at the "Roadhouse Cinema" last night. It was very good, serious and funny.

Here is what happened on 17 Feb on our cruise. Enjoy!

Today is a Sea Day!

We got up and we went to the Garden Cafe for breakfast. Elise enjoyed oatmeal and I had a omelet, they are really good.

After breakfast Mia Moglie walked for 2 miles on Deck 7. It was hard for her to walk because the windy was blowing and the water was choppy, but she enjoyed it.

We went to the casino to play Keno Slots early. We won several times which was good because we were running out of money, smile!

CHA CHINGS

Later we went to the "Bliss Theater" to watch people play "Deal or No Deal" and lose their money. We returned to the casino and lost some of our own money.

 

We are not drinking as much this cruise, for some reason. Maybe we are getting older or getting wiser, eh?

For dinner we ate at the "Grand Pacific" at 5:00pm. The dinner was super good, and they even had "gluten-free" bread.

After dinner we returned to the "Bliss Theater" to see a comedian that was unfiltered for adults only. It was funny and dirty, the way we liked it. 

After the show we got a large bowl of soft serve ice cream, and we got two "White Russians" to go with it. We took it to our room and so much for cutting back on the drinking, smile!

We hit the pillow early because we have an early morning meeting at the "Bliss Theater" for our excursion in Guatamala. We have to meet up with the group at 8:00am.

Another good day on the "Jade".

Well, I had better get busy. Have a good Lunedi! Stay safe and I will chat at you later. 

Today's challenge word is (cascamorto). I am a (cascamorto) and I know it and so does my fidanzata. Right fidanzata?

Ciao...Jessie and Elise

Buon Domenica! How are you doing? It is a nice, sunny morning here in Tucson. Any plans for today?

We just got back from the "Egg Connection", having a good breakfast. The restaurant was a bit empty this morning. Alexa is awake and she said that I have a couple of errands to complete today. I asked her to play some "Down Home Blues" for me today.

My playmate and I will be hitting up the "Roadhouse Cinema" this evening to see the movie "Send Help", the previews were great.

We will be dining on pizza from "Whole Foods" before we got to the movies. Hey, how about those AZ Wildcats? They gave us a scare, but they won the game.

Here is what happened on 16 Feb in Acapulco. Enjoy!

We got up for a quick breakfast this morning. We had to meet up in the "Bliss Theater" this morning at 9:10am. We are going on a guided tour of Acapulco. We are going to an "Endangered Baby Sea Turtle and City Drive Tour" Here are some pictures.

We got back to our ship, and we watched it leave the port at 5:30pm.

We went to see a "Battle of the Sexes" in the Bliss Theater. It was hilarious! We also watched a music competition of featured cruise members.

After that we got a bit of dinner and then we made our way back to our cabin. We filled a bag to send to the laundry in the morning for cleaning.

We called it game over for today. It has been a very educational day.

Well, I had better get to it. Have a good Domenica. Stay safe and I will chat at you later.

Today's challenge proverb is (il mattino ha L'ora in bocca.) Do you think that this is true fidanzata?
