I can see the shore but the rip-tide rabbit keeps dragging me under!

First step was the hardest, but after a nudge there it puzzled itself out.

I'm on shore after a fun ride. Glad to have it done tonight, as I'm heading off to Las Vegas for Joe Bob Briggs' 3rd Annual Drive-In Jamboree tomorrow. I'll see if I can grab an island drink at Frankie's Tiki Room while I'm there.

On the beach, with help from my daughter! I'll get her into metas yet!! Time for a negroni!!!
Check out "The MOAT MEOW Mashup Pack" here. US$10 for 14 metas that don't always abide by the "rules" of the game: asymmetry, 2-letter words, uncrossed letters, who knows. And this time there's a mega-meta! :shock:

I seem to be on the shore but not quite certain how I got here. Something hasn't quite clicked. I'll have to work at filling in the blanks.

Pretty shure I'm ashore, particularly given other people's comments on the slight fuzziness of the solution. Now for a nice long weekend perfectly timed for the crazy summer temperatures finally having lowered here in Tokyo. Gratuitous photo of last night's sunset + Fuji as seen from the kitchen. You're welcome.

To the kind [or sadistic?] soul who personalized this barstool for me here in Isaac’s bar, thank you [or not?].

Safely ashore. I liked this one. Might be a bit too early for a Guinness, so I'll have an Irish coffee, hold the coffee.

On the ship, hoping for some inspiration. I’ve had a little bit of a dry spell lately.

I'm pretty sure I'm on the right track... but it's gotten very foggy the further I've ventured in.

Not sure if I am ashore or if I am overthinking again. :?

Hoping to join the call this afternoon for either confirmation or redirection.

On the Ship.
I see things but I doubt they're the right things. Must be missing something right in front of me...

I made sure this week's puzzle was completely out of sight in this photo! He is sitting on my ideas for an upcoming puzzle (in the very early stages), and the "oreo/ionic" notes are from last week's MGWCC!
Good luck, fellow Muggles!
