Pats Party

Hi Guys, It is with deep regret and saddness to tell you that this will be my last Blog until I arrive home.... Can you believe it has all gone by...Oh well until the next trip, now that I have tihs down so well. Yesterday we went to Monaco and Monte Carlo It was great but long . we were exhausted when we got back. Wht didn't someone tell me Ranier died? Here I was looking for him all day.... What a bummer! Today we are off to Florence for another long day. Tomorrow we meet up with Bo and Lori in Rome. Who woulda thunk?????? Oh yes I did spill last night at dinner... It was very small tho....Can't wait to see you and talk to you soon......Love, Me

Can hardly believe it's Oct.1 already. Time really does fly when you're having fun!!!!! Barcelona was great, we both loved it. It sure would be easy to spend a few days here. We had a full exposure to Mr. Gaudi. (A major architect from barcelona) Here he started a church almost 100 yrs ago and it's not finished yet. Did make a deal with our tour director to meet back here at 10 am 2026 for the grand opening all we have to do is save our A7 bus stickers. We had a great formal night last night and had our group picture taken. I've ordered copies for all of you. KIDDING!!!!!!! Thanks Joanna for writing back good to know we are being looked after. Do you like your driveway? I'm anxious to see our porch. Hope the big party there didn't bother the neighbors to much. Paul developed a sore throat and cold a few days ago so I'm sure you can guess what's happening now. Yep I'm getting it BUT no SPILLS yet.... Gotta run....Remember tomorrow is Lucy's birthday......Love to all, Pat ,Grams , Mom

Hi guys, As you can tell I do have a little problem keeping my days and dates straight. oh well still haven't spilled anything on me yet. Did a little gambling today came out about $60 ahead. just enough  to pay for 100 internet minutes. AND it's so slow....... I guess I'll have to gamle more huh? Tonight is our last formal night so I'm wearing black crepe pants and black crepe top and jacket. Aren't you glad I shared that? It would be nice to hear back from you.(Thanks Marilyn) Hope no hurricanes heading our way. We don't get much USA news or weather. Somebody send this or call this blog address to the boys I thought I sent it out but maybe I missed them. Tomorrow we go to Barcelona all day so I'll be in touch when we get back onboard. LOVE TO ALL, Grams, Mom, or Pat

Hi guys, Went on a little excursion this morning. Viewed the spanish seaside amazing ocean one one side and mount ains on other. Personally I like The Florida coast better. That's not home sickness speaking just an observation. Say girls is my new front porch in? It's supposed to be.... Not much news today cocktails start soon. Let me hear from you. Love, Grams

Hi Guys, Today we got to go to the rock of Gibralter. I went on a bus tour and Paul went to the fortress. We bothe really enjoyed it. I saw the wild monkeys running lose in town. scary thought. Of course Paul learned more about WW2. I haven't the heart to tell him who won, it would spoil the ending for him. Kind of gloomy today had it been clear we would have been able to see the coast of Africa. AMAZING isn't it. Talked to Lori on the phoe last night, we will be with them in Rome. It is still so hard for me to believe we are doing this. We are loving every moment of it. Not to worry Paul has taken about 1000 pictures he will be happy to share with you. Lucky, lucky .lucky... Till tomorrow Love you all. Hey is Michelle getting these? Tell Linda and Tim andthe rest to look this up.......Grams

Hi, It is good to hear back from you. Yesterday we went to Fatima. To be honest it was pretty commercialized,but I guess prayers work wherever you are you tho. Today we decided to stay on ship instead of a tour so here I am.... Guess what we had our first spill last night and guess what ........ it wasn't me but sissy I did share my spot stick.....Whew thank heavens I had it. Oh by the way it was Joyce......YEA!!!!!!Well how was the party at my house girls? I hope you had everyone take a piece of the floor tile with them as  a reminder......When the ship is docked you can't gamble or shopSOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO that means eat or drink.HMMM let me think  eat or drink? eat or drink? Well the bar won......... Take care everyone until tomorrow...LOVE YOU, Mom, Grams Or Pat

Hi, Yesterday my blog was unusually short, of course the reason being--- wild and virosous seas! in other word sea sickness.....All one could do most of the day was lie flat (with a rosary of course). Today we are at Vigo , Spain and most went ashorebut not me I choose to stay onboard and do wash.......Really I didn't need to see St. James church, remember I did the rosary thing yesterday. Please email me if you are reading my blogs if not you can go to blgs.com then to patsparty.blog.com        EASY!!!!!!!!!! Talk to you again soon. Mom or Pat
