Day Ten of Alaskan Cruise Trip: September 20th (Saturday) AT SEA

Peggy and I went to the Bible Study.  Peg did a mini-sermon on the topic of FORGIVENESS.  Then David, she and I went to the buffet for breakfast.  The dining area was quite full.  Two ladies from Australia joined us at our round table.  When one of them went to get some food, the other lady asked us to NOT say anything about Donald Trump, since her friend hates him.  Peggy didn't really go along with this and she DID speak about him.

Peggy and I played a couple of games, and later on she and David chose the movie INSOMNIA.  I watched parts of it, enough to know what the plot was.  Peggy fell asleep on their bed.  We went to the Bottecelli for lunch.  I wrote in my notebook that I had scallops, so I don't know why I have a picture of  sandwich and fries.  But, David ordered a sandwich in a Charcoal Bun.  It looked horrible and very black, but we all tried a taste and it tasted just like a regular burger bun.  


We went to a presentation BEHIND THE SEA:  NAVIGATION AT SEA, at the Theatre.  It was interesting. 

We returned to the room   I was a not at all hungry and also, I thought that Peggy and David might enjoy having a meal together without me,  so, I stayed back in the room.  Jose came by and said he needed the completed forms, so I found them and filled mine out and Peggy filled out one for her and David when they returned.  The forms had something to do with purchases in ports, I think.

We went to the show in the theatre at 7:30.   KWAME REMY Swing and Soul Music. And then we

 stopped to see what was happening in the Piazza.  Peg and David danced a bit (it was a back to the 1980's party).  I took this opportunity to reeturn to our stateroom to take a shower.  When they returned they chose the movie MISSION IMPOSSIBLE.  I watched the first few minutes, but I really do not like this kind of movie.

DAY EIGHT of Alaskan Cruise: Thursday, September 18, 2025 Skagway

 This was what I saw out the window when I got up. The RUBY PRINCESS had stopped and we were in Skagway!  We had breakfast at the Botticelli (I had a soft boiled egg, toast, oatmeal and a banana) and then we returned to our room to get ready for getting off the ship and going to Skagway.  We got tickets for Shuttle #10 and went down to wait to be called.  Things moved along fairly quickly. The shuttle boat was one of the lifeboats, it took us to the mainland.  This is a view of the RUBY PRINCESS from the port.   When we arrived we took a shuttle to the downtown area where we walked around a bit. The downtown area has a lot of interesting shops, etc. but we did not have time to go in many of them.  Here are a few pictures:    We found a geocaches in the library (hooray). And you can see it in this picture that I took.   We picked up a few free items from various jewelry stores.  There were a lot of jewelry stores, and we did ...

 I had the oil changed on my car this morning.  I talked with Elaine and Betty on the phone, also.   I decided it would be a good day to stock up on groceries and other items since Thanksgiving is next week and the stores will be full of people.  Also, from watching the news, I think maybe there will be another STAY AT HOME order coming soon due to the rising number of COVID cases in this area.   First I went to Aldi's where I spent close to one hundred dollars on all sorts of items including some frozen vegetables, a piece of salmon, ground beef, canned vegetables, etc.  I took those groceries home so I could get the frozen stuff into the freezer.  I made myself  a peanut butter and jelly sandwich for lunch.  I have so much food, paper items and cleaning items that it was hard to find spots to put everything.  I still have two hundred dollars worth of SNAP benefits available.   I rested, read and watched TV the rest ...

 I got a call from Kevin K. at Northwest Bank at nine a.m. asking if I could come in and sign one more paper regarding my new SYMMETRA account.  I agreed to be at the bank at 9:45.   After that, I went to FREEDOM CHURCH for the Ladies Life Group.   Their were nine of us there and it went well.  Then five of us went out to lunch at THE OLIVE LEAF. During lunch I asked Elaine if we might be able to start up some fun things to do together on Tuesdays after Life Group.  We had started doing that a few years ago, but it never really stuck.  Elaine was very enthused about this idea.   When I got home, there was a call from the estate lawyer asking me to come in to the office and sign some forms regarding the Principal account at Key Bank.  I called and agreed to go in tomorrow morning. I tried to reach Christa by phone since I know she took today off as a "mental health day".  She did not answer, so I left a message.  She p...
