This is not really a review. Just a few things that happend along the way that you may find amusing. I did not go on the cruise but my parents did. And these experiences sounded pretty unique so I thought I would pass them along.

 

1) my parents arrived early for the muster drill and over heard a very loud guest on the phone. The guest was going on the cruise with a guy. And for whatever reason he was arrested at the port. Well he had all of the spending money in his bag. She tried to get it but could not. The police would not let her near him becuase she has a restraining order against him!

 

2) When they were at windjammers near the end of the cruise they saw another passenger in a scooter with his wife. The scooter had a basket in front of it. And the two proceeded to hide silverware and dishes in the basket. Cover the basket up and casually walk out of the resuarant.

 

3) When my parents arrived at port there was no handicap parking. So my mom dropped my dad off and found a random parking spot in the garage. She did not Notice anything as she walked away from the truck. A week later they are back. As they approached the vehicle they notice a huge ant mound by the truck. And when they opened the door tons of ants are inside the truck!!!

Three very odd, but totally believable occurrences. one reason people watching is a favorite activity. I assume this was Fort Lauderdale. Did they have to fumigate the truck?

It all happens on a cruise ship.

 

Boarding day on Oasis last April at Park Cafe and I was helping (almost carrying) an elderly chap out of his mobility scooter onto a seat.

 

Fast forward 12 hours and the early hours of the morning in the casino, the scooter was parked up and this same chap was jumping around the craps table giving people the high fives.

 

Smiled to myself, got myself another pina colada and carried on cruising :cool:

Too funny!:')

 

We were in line for Customs in Port Canaveral after disembarking Freedom and we watched as the elderly couple in front of us had to empty out a backpack filled with apples, oranges, and bananas from the WJ. They had enough fruit for a couple of weeks!:'):')

 

Sherri:)

And made a mental note for cruise critic. I do that a lot. A lady on a scooter trying to be the first in the dining room of Allure in 2013 was memorable and made my review. I guess you spend a week with about 6000 of the same people, you see lots of odd things.

Love the restraining order story.[emoji19] I use to run into this all the time. "But officer, she invited me over!" Me: "The order doesn't say unless invited."

I was on this cruise and we got to watch him get arrested and placed in the sheriffs car before we headed up to Muster drill.

 

Another weird thing that happened on the ship is while we were in Costa Maya I guess there was a swarm of bees nears some area of the ships pool that they had to shut it down to get rid of them.
