OK---the CRUISE~~~~SUPER~~
The ship is something to see--to go into detail wouldnt even give one any idea as to the beauty of it--3,000 passengers~~~1500 crew--who were the nicest people I ever seen on cruise--any*hoo*
The suite with balcony--was awesome---very private--2 lounges--
Room perfect--
Food --U name it--there it was---oriental---Tai---regular--etc.--and desserts--to die for~~~~
The shows were amazing---the talent was incredible--the costumes--the sets-- music---dazzeling~~~~~
Ice skating show---MOMSTER would have luved this---movements of beauty--
The decor---of the ship---the artistry---stupendous--
11 floors-----YUP---I always got lost-- --our cabins were at the front--I always walked to the back~~~~
Every night our cabin guy made different animals--using towels--and then setting Lous sunglasses on them----so clever and cute to walk into your cabin and see this creation sitting on ya bed--
Salsa music---ballroom---disco---big band tunes--
And naturally the REAL KA-CHING--KA CHING-- we sorta always ended up in the Casino---which did have good pay offs--
Oh---we missed St.Thomas--due to storms---all the other islands were glorious---and we did hit some rock and roll waters-- and the tummy went up/down/sidewards--
Weather --hotter than hell---100% humidity and high 90;s---that kinda was a bummer--so we walked around and then hit the beaches and just bobbed up and down with the salty sea waves---was great!!!
Lorraine and I looked like schlamazzal and schlameal-- --we wore the hats backward---had the big sunglasses---it was so funny~~~
OHHHH---and when the cruise started---a guy came around to video from beginning to end---and Lorraine---me---and another gal---made the big screen---Hollywood here we come----
Anyway---it was super----and all birthdays were acknowledged----believe it or not---Sept.11th---it was me and 2 others---had a teeny cake--candles and everybody who heard the singing--joined in too~~~
I think thats enuf-----cus I could still ramble on----but I think U all got the gist of how Xciting this ship/cruise was----
Now I am off to sleep---
Good to be home--
Keep a smile~~~
And good night

I absolutely love your style of writing. Your description of the ship, and the events that happened during the cruise, are so expressive and interesting, that I probably enjoyed reading about it more than I would have enjoyed it if I were actually on board. Thanks for a terrific post.
Good night, Mrs. Columbo, and I hope that both you and Lou get a good night's sleep,

It is suspected that some of the hardest material known to science can be found in the skulls of GI specialists who insist that diet has nothing to do with the treatment of microscopic colitis.
Welcome home, Sis! I sure did miss you.
I'm with Wayne. Great descriptions - I felt like I was there with you. It sounds wonderful. Did Norman go along with you? Sorry to hear about Lou's continuing problems but glad it was not more serious. I have been aboard a cruise ship when they had to helicopter a sick person off. Talk about medical bills! I think it was all out-of-pocket.
You sound rested and happy, so it seems the trip was just what you needed.
Love

Morning Barbara,
I too absolutely love the way your write and it makes me feel like I was along for the journey and it just might be the closest I ever get to a cruise. Would love to have seen the towel animals and the ice skating and the video of you and Lorraine.
So happy you had a good time but feel so bad for Lou.
Love, Maggie
