[QUOTE]Originally posted by smitty195: [QB] I was actually in an aisle seat this time. I would have preferred a window seat so that I could look out the window, but on a cross-country flight I hate to bother people when I need to get up to go pee! So I picked an aisle seat, so I couldn't even look over anyone's shoulder to see out the window because they were all closed. So strange! This hotel is very nice----I'm told the Courtyard is "just across the street and around the corner" (for Frank). So far it's all very easy to navigate with shuttles, etc. The shuttle driver pointed to one of the cruise ships currently sitting in port, and said it was the largest in the world. He said there are actually two ships that are almost identical, and this was one of them (I'd know the name if I heard it again). I believe it was a Royal Caribbean ship? I thought it was a building when I first saw it, then realized WHOA I'm looking at a ship! It is just rows and rows and stories and stories of windows and balconies. Incredibly huge ship. There was only one other person on the hotel shuttle with me, and she was coming to the hotel to grab the car and go back and pick up the rest of her family waiting at the airport to get their bags, etc. She said they were on a cruise but when they got back last week, Jet Blue left them "high and dry" and told all of their passengers, "Sorry, but we are closing down" (because of the storms). They did nothing---NOTHING---to help their passengers. They simply shut down and walked away. So these folks had nowhere to go, so they ended up staying on the ship and doing another week on the same route that they just took. They had no choice----it was either that, or sit around a Fort Lauderdale hotel for a week waiting for Jet Blue to "catch up" again. I didn't ask how they paid for that or how that all worked out. I doubt the cruise line just let them stay---they must have had to pay for another week? I hope someone can do a grab shot tomorrow as the Ruby Princess leaves port. That would be so neat! Sorry I don't know how to do a screen shot on a Windows machine---I'm Mac only. A quick Google search shows this: _______________________________ Take a screen shot Applies to Windows XP Ever see something on your screen that you’d like to email or save for later? With Microsoft Windows XP, you can take a screen shot and capture an exact image of what’s on the screen. To take a screen shot and save it as a picture Click the window you want to capture. Press Alt+Print Screen by holding down the Alt key and then pressing the Print Screen key. The Print Screen key is near the upper-right corner of your keyboard. (Depending on the type of keyboard you have, the exact key names on your keyboard may vary slightly.) Note You can take a screen shot of your entire desktop rather than just a single window by pressing the Print Screen key without holding down the Alt key. Click Start, click Accessories, and then click Paint. In the Paint window, click Edit, and then click Paste. When the image appears in the Paint window, click File, and then click Save As. In the Save As dialog box, in the File name box, type a name for the screen shot, and then click Save. You can now print or email the saved screen shot just like you would any other picture. _________________________________ [/QB][/QUOTE]
