re: Around the World Cruise

When a colleague retired, he went on a 5-month ATW cruise on Seabourn in 2023. Miami to Barcelona. He said he could’ve done without the Western Africa segment (after being on the eastern side). Overall he liked it enough to book another one for 2027. Runs about $100,000/person and he spent close to another $100,000 on excursions including a 3-day safari in Africa
I did a 12nt Seabourn and there were about 25 out of 300 total passengers who were doing super long itineraries, most of whom had already spent 200-300 nights on Seabourn throughout the years. You can definitely run up a high fare on a 100+ night cruise on Seabourn and Oceania.
I have an older retired friend who does RTW cruises on Holland America (step below Seabourn and Oceania) every year, usually around 150-170 nights and and they pay around $65,000
The nice thing about Seabourn, not sure with Oceania, is everything is included: alcohol, tips, wifi. On holland America that is all add ons so the total price can get high quickly

That isn’t everyone’s cup of tea, but I could definitely do 120 days on Oceania. Sounds like a great trip!
If you do document it update this thread so we can follow along.

That’s definitely high even post Covid. The place I use is around $25/suit plus or minus.

It should say:

But that’s a lot to fit on a shirt and even more to try and read

Yorke made some athletic plays, nice scoop and dig on a one hopper and then picking up second on that pitch in the dirt
If you haven’t seen the video of Kruk’s locker room tour it is great.

Proper steak. The juice in the meat and not leaking all over the plate
Thanks. I have ran into that problem in the past. This time I cooked it on a higher heat for less time and threw it in the oven in the pan for a few minutes. Was very happy with the result.

re: Saks Fifth Avenue at New Orleans’ Canal Place since the 1980s, to close for good

You haven’t shopped at Lee Michael’s have you? They still provide the very experience you deem obsolete
I actually went to Lee Michael’s yesterday to drop off a watch to be serviced.
LM is a boutique not a department store like Saks. Personal shoppers at boutiques are more common than a large department store.

They could have closed other store locations but chose NO. I do think it matters
Except they are closing 7 other Saks locations around the country and a Neiman Marcus.
It is in the article and OP

Not surprising. NOLA is not headed in a good direction. Maybe this new mayor can help save it a little bit but NOLA really need conservatives to take over
Whether NOLA is trending up or down is irrelevant here. This is an indictment more on retail shopping than NOLA.
What you have is a company, Global Brands, who tripled down on three luxury department stores:
Saks
Neiman Marcus
Bergdorf Goodman
All while brick and mortar shopping is down. People don’t need the extras that upscale department stores offer anymore. The personal shopper has been made almost useless with the internet and social media now. You have direct links to the things being advertised to you before the reel is over. You don’t need someone in a store to introduce you to an item anymore.
It is a shame because there is something about going to a nice store and being given personal attention by someone who knows what they are doing but it is obsolete now unfortunately.
Anyway, Sac’s on Burnside is still going strong :lol:

A lot. Undiagnosed bi-polar alcoholic.
Would use the license plate on his Chevy square body as a gauge to where the trailer hitch was. That old raised painted LP was so worn and beat you could barely make out the letters and numbers.
Would always pack a cooler of beer when we went out to dinner Friday/Saturday nights.
We had a lot of land growing up, had a burn pile and fish guts pile after he cleaned them. Would ride out to both on his cub cadet beer in hand
Could wire anything with zero professional training
Had his own bathroom in the house where he had both his TPs. Times Pic and Toilet paper
Popped squirrels out of 100+ year d pecan trees with a pump action BB gun and no scope

The "handoff" to go from Botswana, which was an unreal safari, to Zimbabwe was a bit unnerving.
I also went to Zambia and Zimbabwe on that trip and felt safer there than Cape Town, not that I ever felt unsafe but more aware there.
Simon’s Town, SA was my favorite city
