Random Thoughts
April 15, 2006
Wow, havent had a chance to blog in a while. Been tied up with work – major review coming up in two weeks. Also, been extremely busy making some significant upgrades to the 158th AA Clan website. Its a lot of fun but getting bed at 12 or 1 AM needs to change a bit.
The weather is already starting to heat up here in AZ. We got into the 90′s twice last week. And just think, a month ago we had snow on the ground. I hope the early heat isnt a sign of a wickedly hot summer coming our way. Already had one brush fire here in the area. They say its gonna be a very bad fire season in the Southwest this year.
Off on another business trip Monday morning. Darn just have to go check out the sandy beaches of Ft Walton Beach, FL. It’s really tough when you customer has a poor location like that. Guess I will be forced to stop by AJ’s Bimini bar too. It’s a short visit though – back home on Wednesday.
The cruise lines are supposed to release their 2007 schedules this month for Alaska, so should be able to start planning that family reunion cruise. Of course, the Mexico cruise this November is approaching – albeit too slow.
Later, for now…
New Holland America Master Chef’s Dinner
April 6, 2006
As an avid cruiser, I found the Holland America Cruise Line recent press release about their new Signature Master Chef’s Dinner interesting. We tend to favor Celebrity Cruises when we cruise and one of the reasons is the cuisine. I havent found another cruise line’s that compares to Celebrity’s. Being an avid cook myself, this is important. The daily 2 hour dinner in the main dining room is one of my favorite things about cruising. Dont get me wrong, I am not one to gorge myself on a cruise. I have yet to make a midnight buffet (whatever time they do them now) though I am usually up past midnight. But, the dinners are special. I even prefer the main dining room to those specialty restaurants.
Anyways, this new program has the whole hotel dining staff “putting on a show” while serving dinner once per cruise. Sounds fun and entertaining. I wil have to find some actual cruiser guests who have experienced the “show” and see what they thought.
