Subject: Cat's Vacation Thread

Written By: CatwomanofV on 04/06/08 at 4:27 pm

On a jet plane. Well, I can't say that my bags are packed-they are getting there.

I may be able to post a little tomorrow but we will be leaving here tomorrow evening and staying at my step-son's house. Then we will be flying out early on Tuesday. For the next 3 weeks we will be basking in the sun on "La Isla del Encanto." I will be checking in from time to time so I expect everyone to be on their best behavior while I'm gone. If not, I will kick your butts when I get home.

I am very tired now but I'm doing laundry because we are running out of clean clothes. The next few days we are going to take it easy so I'm sure I will have more time to stop in and tell you all the gory details.


Oh, I did not have any ear problems on the plane like I thought I would. I bought those ear planes that I think it was Karen who recommended. It did help in terms of my ears not popping but I couldn't hear with them in and they irratated the excema that I have in my ears.  :-\\  The second flight I didn't use them at all and my ears were fine.

And can someone tell me why I now have a medal?

Breifly what we did last week:

Saturday: Drove to San Juan and picked my sister & her family up at the airport.
Sunday: Walked around Old San Juan.
Monday: Went to the Rain Forest (and got rained on) and drove around to the southern part of the island.
Tuesday: Went to Gilligan's Island (for a three hour tour). Went snorkeling. My sister found a beautiful conch shell (by stepping on it) but didn't keep it because it was occupied.
Wednesday: Went to the beach. My nephew went snorkeling and found a ring engraved with "Pedro".
Thursday: Went to the Tiano (indian) archology site. And then back to San Juan.
Friday: Dropped them off at the airport  :\'( :\'( :\'(  and then back here.

Well, I thought yesterday was going to be a day of rest but my SIL's neighbor invited us for a ride on his boat. We went out to a mangrove island, put some chairs in the water and sat most of the day. Today, so far, has been spent reading, doing laundry, etc.

We were afraid that he might find Pedro.  :D ;D ;D

We think that it was lost-probably slipped off his finger.

Yesterday my SIL & I did go back to the casino and once again, I lost my @$$.  :\'( :\'( :\'(  And then when we got back, I had to hear it from my husband about wasting so much $$$ in a slot machine. Hey, it's only money.

We did go to breakfast this morning and I'm hoping that we get a chance to go out picture taking today. It is very cloudy and looks like it is going to rain so the beach is probably out.

I've just taken a look at several sites. This link looks the most easily digested ....

They've ruined plenty of lives over here.  I virtually NEVER play them. Then again, I'm also a once a year gambler, on the Melbourne Cup ... Australia's famous horse race ...  that rivals the UK's 'Grand National' for gripping the nation ... perhaps more so here ? The women love to get dressed up in all their finery ... and the pubs are generally packed to the rafters at around 3pm as all eyes focus on the race. Think I've won 3 years out of around 20.  :-[

Unfortunately, I am a bit but they are not too bad. Carlos, however, is having some ear problems. I guess he got water in his ear a few weeks ago when we went swimming. Now, it seems to be getting worse. And yes, now we are getting reading to fly again.  :-\\ :-\\  He said that it doesn't hurt but just annoying and he can't quite hear out of that ear. Maybe when we reach a certain altitude, his ear will pop and that will "cure" it.

Um...Sorry. Not the right answer but thank you for playing anyway.

Yeah you don't really hear much about ventriloquist anymore like you use to back in the 50's-70's. I'm sure there's plenty of them out there like Mr. Fator,but they're not in the spotlight.

I grew up with ventriloquist acts on tv all the time, and wondered is the modern day language hard to roll of the tongue?

So true...maybe that's why Terry Fator does alot of singing..maybe they need some one who is "urbanized" and knows the lingo out there.

For some reason, my bills didn't come in.  ???  Maybe I didn't use one of my credit cards this month (which I should have received) and the other one may come tomorrow. Some of the ones he pays came in.
