What a great end to an awesome cruise. You and Mr. Megan are such a joy to cruise with. Let's do this again sometime. 🥂😀

If this group gets together again I for sure want to join. 
 

You are staying on another week are you not?  So far you picked a great week to be away it’s freezing here!  Enjoy!

Or when you were so tired or drunk you would just sleep on the potty!

Or fall off

Great review, thanks once again for sharing your vacation. I like your new shirts that you wore. The red one is #1.

Trying to decide if she has the energy to come downstairs. Cats have an awfully difficult life having to make these daily decisions.

Samantha has taken over the bed in the sun this afternoon.  The high today is 42 so the sun feels good from inside.

 

All adorable

It will definitely require some self control!

I lose it as soon as I sit down!

eight straight sea days is just wild. Can’t wait. 
 

I’d be broke!

By the way, if you ever want people to leave you alone while you're drinking, just get yourself a Charles Manson T-shirt... Or, maybe it's just me...

I’m sure it’s the shirt. I haven’t quite figured out that one yet.

Put me down to buy the series….could you include my BOB story somehow? 

That’s your book Deedle 😀

The books I want to write aren't going to be picture type books, but real reading type books... You can still buy one though, if you want. I just have to write them still...

You could start with a photo book on Atlanta and Miami. Like it’s already done you just need to assemble it. 
 

Another one could be titled “Eating and drinking in the wild of the Caribbean”. Again already done just needs to be assembled.  
 

In saying this you should watermark your photos you post.

Maybe look into some sort of sponsorship from a good tequila brand…a traveling tequila blog?

Great idea   Maybe not so great in that he’s trying to get a handle on drinking though!

Hopefully with the news that I'm not going to be doing this anymore doesn't lead you to believe that I'm in any way denigrating the Cruise Critic brand or website... They've been GREAT in allowing me to post my daily screed for years now. Honestly, I never had any plans whatsoever to be a "travel writer"... In fact, my mom has been telling me for years that that's "what I should be doing with my life"... (She doesn't even know that I do this at all...)

 

For the longest time, I've been in search of a greater purpose for my life, and spinning my wheels here just isn't getting me to wherever THAT is... I'd like to write real books making real money, rather than try and entertain what amounts to 318 people... I've got at least three books that I want to write and probably "self publish" since I have no "connections" in"the business"... 

 

I don't even know where I was even going with all that, but I DO want all y'all to know I appreciate EVERY SINGLE ONE of you here reading today as well as in the past. If I do ever write my"magnum opus" hopefully y'all will read it as well...

You know I would put money on your big boss having any connections you may need.

I’ve never been there but the architecture and greenery looks amazing. Thanks.

Looks like it’s going to be a beautiful day. Have a great one!

Definitely following this one. The itinerary is what dreams are made of in the middle of January. 
 

Enjoy!

I don’t know what took or caused the left turn but I wish you all the best. I really hope you do find something bigger and better to do as your writing, love of food, photography and knowledge of Atlanta could probably take you places!

In the meantime, get out and have fun and enjoy the rest of your cruise.

I guess tomorrow is St Thomas, then it's just a slow float back to Miami... Things haven't exactly gone according to plans, but then again they haven't been a total trainwreck like like last cruise on Virgin Voyages... Lots of good food and drinks, as well as lot's of money spent in land in Miami, and today in San Juan. I'm anticipating another fruitful day tomorrow, and hoping to get my toes in the ocean for the first time this calendar year... Other than that, it'll just be more sun and fun on board the Celebration... Still haven't made it to the MDR, and I probably won't... I would like to check out Chinang before it's all over with. I've only had this one drink today on board at the Golden Jubilee, and maybe one more before I'm finished, and I have a whole bottle of nice champagne to drink before it's all over with... Something tells me that I'll at least break even on my Cheers beverage

package, but y'all know I don't care anything about trying to make 15 drinks a day to get my money's worth... It is what it is... Probably less than an hour left in me tonight until bedtime, and more technicolore dreams before enjoying my final day on land before it's all over with on Sunday...

What hasn’t gone according to plans?

I literally busted out laughing at work. Now everyone is staring at me.

I know how you feel bi was laughing hysterically at 3:00 AM last night. My husband was grumpy. I kept laughing. That right there really pi$$ed me off that I didn’t go on this cruise!  Megan is a rock star!

What’s happening with you ladies?  No posts??  I hope you are having a fantastic time. 

@bobmacliberty  wow, thanks for sharing your tour. Pictures are amazing. I don’t think I would be able to walk in the mirror glass area, I am sure I would walk into a wall or something and not only that I would look like an idiot trying to walk around.

I think just the opposite @Jamman54 is getting @sid_9169 out of his isolation bubble which is a good thing...I've walked in them shoes a few times in my life.  Life is much better outside the bubble!

Exactly!  Jamman da man!

You bet I will. At least you don't have the snow Ottawa got. 😁

All clear now!  Sunny cold day today but you won’t be worrying about weather until close to February.  Two snow shovelling in Renfrew heart attack casualties.  Awful, people need to realize it’s too damn heavy to shovel by hand.  I can’t imagine how the families feel.

No, Roscoe posted a pic of himself yesterday, and that's not him in the group pic above. 

I forgot this pic

There’s very long FF audition line. 

Do you have to go in it?

Just now, sid_9169 said:

This just isn't the same when viewed through a wet window...

Ya it kind takes a little bit if excitement out of it. But look at it this way you are missing out on “As the rug turns” tomorrow

This sucks, there's no way in heck I'm going to go stand by the rail in the rain leaving the channel...

 

 

That really does suck.  Hopefully you get out of rain soon enough.
