Today we took a nice walk, vacuumed the car and sat in the sun.  We watched the President Trump's update.  It was very reassuring.  I think that we're going to be fine.
Last night we went to the store around 8pm, about an hours before closing.  It was interesting which items were completely gone: peanut butter, bread, eggs, vegetables, toilet paper, meat except for chicken.  It was weird.  No line though at the self check.  

This evening we had some delicious corned beef hash from leftover St. Pat's meal :)

Ah Meghan, Meghan, Meghan.....I thought you would never live in the US while Trump was president. Unfortunately for you, Hollywood remains in US.

Carnival Cruise to Ensenada

Cruise from Long Beach to Catalina Island and Ensenada, Mexico. 
Day 1
Kryssie drove to terminal.  Got on board.  Ate r.b. sand. Explored.  Sat in sun. Dinner.  Seared tuna, duck pot stickers, main: fried shrimp. Fried calamari.  Dessert fruit plate. Walked around ship.
Day 2
We arrived in Catalina in the morning.  Mike had a breakfast burrito and we left with Marilyn, John and the girls on the tender to The island.   We rented a golf cart ...and drove all over the island.   Then stopped for coffee and some wifi.   Then walked all over the place taking pictures.   took a long time to get back on tender.   We got lunch on lido,  pizza ...and a really good dessert napoleon.   Brooklyn joined us so I suggested minature golf.  Then we watched her play some ping pong.   We played too.  Fun!  We tested awhile and went down to fancy night dinner.  Apps stuffed mushrooms, Ceasar salad, strawberry soup, main grilled shrimp. Mike and I shared the prime rib.
