THE CRUISE!!!!!

Post by barbaranoela »

I did this yesterday --yet when I hit SUBMIT---it flew somewhere else?? so I was so mad and said some real awful :banned: :banned: words (I did I did) :lol: --so today I try again---

Anyway--I shall say--once U have been to these islands---U have been there and thats IT!!!
It was a nice cruise---stateroom--balcony etc was super--
We had ~~~~~~~ seas for the whole time--had beautiful lightening--that made the dark night sky just glorious--and when we pulled into port saw some gorgeous privately owned yachts--one named *My NEW TOY* :lol: I would like to have that $$$$ they paid for the new toy--We had Kareoke night---and Americal Idol--which I was SIMON and said *oUT*--booooooooo!!!!!!
Then there was a guy playing the piano/singing and taking requests--so I asked for BEEGEE'S---and he said *I dont like their music--so NO*!! I said * and I am the cruiser--who is asking for a REQUEST that U are sitting there waiting for!!!RIGHT!!!! and he ignored me so U betcha I didnt have any nice words to reply on his card--
They had a humungus outdoor movie screen--where U could sit outsideby the pool or in your lounge and watch TV--
Food was awesome--but our waiter ADUL--which Louie kept calling ABUL :rofl: couldnot understand why I didnt want a 7 couse meal---every night we had a discussion---UFF--which was BUT MADAME~~~~
And I hate dress up night--ya cruising to relax---
Sad to see the many OBESE families that I think cruise to EAT!!

I kept getting lost---L would say --*which way are we going*--say I *straight ahead* So which way are U to walk---*straight ahead say I again!! :lol: :lol: aft/starboard--what the heck do I know aft or starboard- that was a short lesson--- :shrug:
The best was four guys called BEATLE MANIACS--they portrayed each of the lads and the backround was a continuous flicks of the Beatles starting on Ed Sullivan show to the very end of their sadness--

The auditorium was rocken and rollin --we stood up and had our arms swaying back and forth---what a sigh to see--- :music: Hey Jude :music: rocked the entire hall and PIPPIE our favorite :music: IMAGINE :music: was sung and the tears just flowed down my cheeks----tis a most moving song--

Now ladies---there was a lounge which had some real good mood music--like the bossa-nova---a sweet sexy rumba and the guy GERALDO was really something to *dribble* over :thumbsup: His card got big rave reviews---got his number--I wrote!!! :lol:

So many diffferent things--but *had to see* to appreciate--writing it just doesnt do them justice--
Like we went to the very top where another bunch were rockin--a conga line of 236 folks went up---down--around the entire deck---and @ the end we all threw rolls of colorful stings---I felt like a *kid*---that was a terrific feeling- :smile:
To end---the good groaning of a viral thing went around--Lou sick for 2 days---and is still hacking away(and we had to drive home from Fla.) I am feeling better----yet almost like I am carrying a *hang-over*--but gotta Xpect a thing like this to happen--when ya breathing in evrybodies germs---
So we got home in 2 dayz---drove non-stop(Xcept to *P*) on Tuesday--from 9am to 9pm and got home to our own beds--
We didnt stop to see Lou's friend cus his Kemo has really taken a tollon him---and he didnt need a hacking friends around him--

So thats it----as I said---much to post but not seeing it wouldnt mean a thing--
Good to be home----

I've never been on a cruise and have wondered what they're like. Sounds like you had a good time. Thank you for sharing a bit of your vacation with us.

Barbara,

Thanks for a rundown on the trip. I can just picture you playing the part of Simon. I'll bet you can do a better job of playing him than he can. LOL.

Luve,

P S I'll bet if you look at your "Drafts", you'll find that post you wrote yesterday.

Morning Barbara,

Thanks for taking me on that cruise with you. I have never been on one and it does make me want to put it on my bucket list. So far as the entertainer not playing the Beegees for you, I think that was totally rude.

May try to call you this weekend. Want to find out about snowbirding in AZ.

Love, Maggie
