Thanks, I need it. We have had to turn on the furnace for a couple weeks now. The one good thing, it helps with our allergies. A big hug back to you!

We still have not been able to turn off the AC...!

I'm so out of the loop I've never even knowingly heard one of Adele's songs...

Well, her most popular right now is "hello". pretty easy to find it on youtube as its one of the most viewed videos ever. (2nd place I think, behind Oppa Gangamg Style of PSY.

But they have a tailor there. I do wish DS wasn't turning out to be a glorified mall.

And all of that and they can't put a store in that sells cell phones so you have to take a cab off property when your cell phone goes kaput on vacation...

 

[Cesar R M]

on the good news, I have finally processed all the photos. Now need to process the videos.. yikes!
I have been hella productive in work too.

Isnt there an Apple store at least?
I also wonder why they do not have a camera shop as well.

 

[donaldtoo]

Gladly, it was 46 last night.

Our low last night was 75.
I think it's a bit unusual that we haven't had even a small cool front move through yet...

Not that I know of.

They really need to get some sort of electronics store there. AT&T store, small Best Buy, something. Enough people have problems with their electronic devcies on vacation and are stuck in the bubble that it woukd probably be worth it.

She did the theme song for Skyfall.

She did the theme song for Skyfall.

Wasn't that a James Bond flick?
I never saw it. I'm much more a fan of the older Bond movies...Sean Connery, Roger Moore.

Bacon^2

It was delicious!!!
If your restaurant is named "Bacon", it better be some of the best bacon around...!

in other news.. big storm yesterday.. non stop rain for 12 hours and tons of thunder!
feels fresh this morning. hopefully we will get another storm later today and prevent the heat from getting intolerable.
I'm at 30% of all the photos I think. going slow as there is a lot to filter! (not all pictures came fine, so need to filter and delete)

Hurry up with those pics, please! I need another cruise...!!!

Yup.

I'm not a James Bond fan at all, but I figured you might be familiar. You're in the same camp as my parents, actually. I'm not a Bond fan, but my brother can very ocassionally get me to watch Spy Who Loved Me.

They're like the first 3 Star Wars and Indiana Jones movies to me, I watch those older Bond movies anytime I can when they come on.

We have almost all of the older Bond movies...and the Original SW triology and Raiders of the Lost Ark.

 

[donaldtoo]

yeah, the bad thing is.. my sensor became dirty (my camera CMOS sensor) for changing lenses too much. Now theres black spots in random parts and appear in most photos.
Just ordered those branded cleaning systems from Amazon. Well see how it goes.
But I'm hopeful that all will be well.

Fingers crossed you can get it all sorted!
Looking forward to the pics...!

 

[donaldtoo]

Agree! It must have been at food and wine?

Hahaaa...!
They just need to call it what it really is..."Food 'n Booze"...!

 

[donaldtoo]

We need those self driving cars, now.

I heard on the radio a few days ago that Uber was going to start using them, but, with 2 Uber employees in the car.
Not quite sure what that's all about, but, I guess we'll see how it plays out over time...

 

[donaldtoo]

Me too. But we like photo's great or not.

Ditto!

For @StarWarsGirl I did think of you while I was awayView attachment 162373

Too funny! That's DWifey's nickname...!
She was a tomboy when she was younger, but, apparently became quite the girly girl later, thus her pop started calling her Missy. I've only ever known her as quite the girly girl...!
