just rolled past my balcony washing the glass railing thing and saw me changing into my bathing suit




Did I tell ya about the security camera tapes of late night Jacuzzi action being on sale - last day on deck 4! B|;)


They got me again as we docked in Ocho Rios. I wasn't expecting them to wash the balcony glass again. Oh well. [:/]

I'm back in FLL and barely made it out alive. :P:P:P

All of the trip advice was spot on and I really appreciate it! I was prepared and then some!

It was certainly different and something I'll probably never do again. Let's see. A couple of low flyers with no running lights, some Coast Guard helicopters, one day of seasickness :S:S:S, and lots of inconsiderate, rude and not so mannerly people.

I think the funniest thing was at the end of the trip I WON A FREAKING CRUISE. Of all people, me, the person who wanted off the boat like NOW. :ph34r:

I'll give a little trip report later but I'm happily at my favorite FLL hotel and I'm now going down to the pool. BTW, if any of you are country music fans, I was on the elevator with Craig Campbell and a couple of guys in his band a little while ago after they checked in. Seeing the Stars N Guitars concert tonight with Sheryl Crowe, Darius Rucker, Craig Campbell and Love & Theft... B|

Thanks!! THAT looks AWESOME!!

Here's something similar in Key Largo http://www.jul.com/. I've never stayed there but I wouldn't mind trying it for 1 night. The link you posted looks a lot more comfy!! B|

IF you ever choose to go again...

Don't get on one that has the 'free' promo trips - it's a bit more expensive, but kinda like a club with a hefty cover charge, keeps the riff raff to a minimum. ;)

Oh...AND they wash the windows EVERY DAY! B|:ph34r:

Now you tell me! :P

It was a "free" trip from a casino. I surely paid for it many times over... ;)

I LOVED being on the ocean but I hated the strict schedule for port times.

******lol..

They all probably though you were the mythical Unicorn! ;)

It must be some signal you're sending out, because we just spent 1 week at a resort full of swingers, and no one asked us to play! lol :ph34r:



They can spot desperation.:ph34r:

Dude, you're bad. :P:P:P

Of course>:(

I think they're trying to kill me. I just got this email:

Dear Karen,

We feel lucky having guests like you, and to truly show our appreciation we’d like to send you and a guest on a Norwegian Cruise Line vacation!* So pack your bags and get ready to sail away to an exotic destination.

You have the choice of two dates: The cruise embarks from New York on December 8, 2013 returning on December 15, 2013, or you can choose to embark from New York on December 15, 2013 and return on December 22, 2013.

******You must have gotten rave reviews, and they want you back! lol



I didn't play! :P:P:P

You should have. Next time, make sure you pack your toys. http://www.pipelander.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/BandPackBackpackTravelCase2.jpg

:P

The guard let me through with a 10" dive knife in my stuff. Do you really think he's going to "trust me" with bagpipes??

Maybe the reviews were from the guy washing your windows.

Makes me wonder if deck hand balcony glass washer is a popular job request? On this cruise I think it would've been punishment!! :P

Apparently, they can fill a cruise ship full of people who like to "play". Why did they have to harass me on the redneck cruise?

I hope they clean that ship extra, extra, extra thoroughly. It's a floating "play room" and "dungeon room". W.T.F. :o
