Afternoon all&#33; Finally trying to catch up here after a long day of shopping. Managed to find my mom a gift as well as my neighbor (Iforgot about her birthday next week) still not done with Dad. Glad I bought Howie a new laptop for Father&#39;s Day so no shopping for him. I did manage to have breakfast out with my friend who&#39;s son is getting married on Saturday so at least I got some rest today. Good news is Dad went to see the surgeon and they will wait 3 months and redo the doppler test on his heart to get a better gauge on what&#39;s going on. He&#39;s suspicious how the blockage increased so much and will have Dad tested at his offfice not the hospital this time. We have a reprive for now.<br /><br /> I really did rest and do nothing while we were on the ship. Never even got off at either port.....LOL. Just sat by the pool and read, and then moved to a deck 7 under the lifeboats for the cooler breezes in the afternoon both days. I think this is the laziest I&#39;ve ever been but I knew what I was coming home to so I took advantage of the time. The food was pretty good this time around but I don&#39;t go for the food of course. The drinks were excellent and the service the also excellent. I had my Chocolate Martini pre-dinner on formal night and I enjoyed it very much as I was watching the sunset from the Viking Crown (full ocean view). Howie was very pleased to do some napping so we both had a wonderful weekend. Wait till you all meet Howie, he&#39;s so different from me but he is quick witted so watch out.......<br /><br />Joeylou I see you started our monthly Dock......thanks for stepping in to help Marylou.
