I'm not usually into those kinds of flicks, but, I absolutely love the Godfather movies.
I caught most of I and II yesterday, but, DWifey's watchin' her some Hallmark today.

Didn't you say you have DirecTV? If you do it should be channel 374.

Love both Follow Me Boys and The Parent Trap. I have a large collection of old Disney live action films. I'm very close to having all of them that are available. I had to join the Disney movie club to get some of them that are movie club exclusives.

I know I got the Maelstrom shirt that was offered by the Disney store in the fall of 2014, wore it once and it shrunk up all strange. I might have to just make it into a pillow because I love the design.

Our day in the Dominican Republic started out wonderful. Room service (fruit and croissants) arrived on time, beach bag packed to go, one last trip to the bathroom before leaving and 
. The bathroom in our cabin had a four inch step up into it. I forgot that coming out and I felt it in my back. 
I loaded up with ibuprofen and my friend recommended taking the wheelchair because even if at the moment I felt fine, later I may be aching.
Our shore excursion was a short drive by motorcoach to the Be Live Canoa Resort in Bayahibe. We had almost four hours unlimited use of their pools, beach and recreational areas. This resort catered mostly to Italians on vacation and they were aplenty. 
Plus open bar was included! 
I was so excited because my favorite beer is from this island and I can't get it anywhere near me.
We took full advantage of the facilities and the others made their way to the beach to find seashells while I lounged in one of the smaller pools. (You can see in the picture above.) They weren't gone but maybe ten minutes and came wandering back. The beach had "European sunbathing" (topless or more
) and my friends decided that wasn't an appropriate sight for my daughter to see. 
By this time I had realized I'd been sitting in the open sun for almost 90 minutes and needed shade. Unfortunately from tweaking my back earlier, the nerves had put my leg to sleep. In the water I hadn't noticed but trying to get out....I could barely put any weight on it.
With help I made it to the top step, flipped my legs over the wall and plopped into the wheelchair where I stayed for the final hour.
I had been to the D.R. before on my honeymoon (many years ago) and noticed on the ride to the resort that many things still haven't changed. The main mode of transportation is still by moped, there are still miles of undeveloped land and there is still a lot of poverty once you get away from the "tourist" areas. We took a different route to return to the port. The driver said he would be passing a landmark for a photo opportunity. (Which I thought was a little odd because everyone was still damp from swimming.
) Okay now see the picture of the bridge below?
We stopped off to the side right in the middle of this bridge! 
The driver told us if you look down below, the movie Anaconda was filmed right there on that part of the river. Then he tells people to take a picture but don't all stand on the right side of the bus! (Umm, yeah dude! Let's not flip over the railing! 
) It was a cool tidbit of info but I was soooo happy to get off that bridge!
After arriving back to the port you have to walk through a decent-sized duty-free shop to go to the dock. Smart move on their part. Put souvenirs and alcohol in front of people on vacation and they are willing to spend some money!
We did. 
Between the four of us we bought four postcards, one baseball (my friend's man collects them), a seashell/sand bottle and one Presidente. Total of all--under $20. I would have bought more Presidente but you were only allowed to take one unopened on ship. If you wanted to buy a six pack, they would open them and you could relax in the patio area outside the shop and drink away. I wish I had done that. After getting back to our room my back was bothering me so I laid down and took a two hour NAP.

That sounds awesome. Unfortunately, I pretty much have to stick with Oahu, and possibly Maui. We're not sure how I would handle volcanic smoke. And I have to stay a good ten feet away from flower leis unless I feel like swelling up like a balloon. I haven't been to Maui since I was a baby. My mom's cousin and his wife lived there for a while, so while we were all in Maui, we spent some time with them. After she got pregnant, they moved back to the mainland. Could not afford to live out there. My mom said she would love for us to go to Maui, but I'm not sure how I would do there; I already have enough trouble on Oahu. I'm not terribly wild about Honolulu; looking forward to Aulani more than anything honestly. No one goes to Aulani and doesn't like it.

I've always poked 'em and wrapped 'em 'cause the skins stay more moist, and I like to eat the skins, too.
I wrap potatoes too. And I am weary of ''it is going to kill you drama" but some say foil wrapped potatoes are going to kill ya.

Yeah Honolulu used to be more exciting when they had their International Market. Apparently it's gone now and condos or something like them have been built in their place. I found this out from some Hawaii residents I met in Seattle.
