Micki, have you tried sucking on a piece of soft ginger candy or chewing ginger gum? It works for me and for our son, who even gets motion sickness when he's the driver! I've recommended this to pregnant women and people in chemo and virtually everyone says it helps a lot.

Bless your heart aknan...I certainly will try it. Like your son, I also get car sick. Double bummer.

We discovered this on Maui. The tour driver suggested we all suck on a piece while he drove the Hana road - extremely twisty, to say the least. That was over 4 years ago and I've never had a bout of motion sickness since. If your local grocery doesn't carry ginger candy or gum, try the natural food type places or oriental groceries. I no longer use the patches or the acupressure bracelets.
This puzzle gives me hope that we can go on a few scenic boat rides when the weather warms up enough. In NY there are quite a few lakes and the St. Laurence Seaway that host commercial boats on which guests get a historic background of the area and explanations of current and recent occurrences. Mailboats on lakes are also open to the public for a reasonable fee.
Hi Jan, sounds lovely and I can imagine it having lived in Canada for a couple of years. We are having lots of storms lately and heard a couple of loud thunder claps at about 3am which were pretty scary. But we got some rain out of it which was good for my garden and new plants I put in the day before. Tomatoes, cucumbers and some marigolds to fight off the bugs. Hugs. And may you have a blessed Christmas.

Should have read "my sister" as I only have one. Hugs.
Good morning everyone. Been snowing here all night, we're under a winter storm warning. I don't like to go on boats, love the beach, but not the ocean and yes I'm a very good swimmer. My mother made sure all 6 of us could swim well because she couldn't and she was afraid something would happen when my dad wasn't around. Aussie try and stay cool and everyone stay safe.

Hi Darambo, reminded me of my disastrous honeymoon whale watching cruise. Had no idea of the disaster I would have to face in a couple of years time. Hugs.
