This was fun while we were docked in Nassau...we went in aft end first, and almost as soon as we docked here is what we saw from the balcony, and was most prolly why we saw that smoke pulling in...

 

 

So I guess this is one of the itineraries that stays overnight in Nassau:confused: I think I read that...anyways, we went inside to head into port and the TV had this on....

 

 

I know I know...easily amused right, but it cracked us up and we were going outside, and coming back in...until the ships were out of view....:rolleyes:

 

 

[LambKnuckles]

Floatie... I'd be running in and out too!!! Kinda like, Live and Memorex...

 

KEWL!!!!

[floatingaway2525]

I couldn't wait to show you these, who knows what these are? I had never seen them before in all these port times, and I pay attention!! Anyway, Dano pointed them out to me and I was ROFL on the dock, and :eek: too because OUR ship didn't have them:eek:

 

 

 

 

Dano said they were ratstoppers, ROFL and ewwwww....:p

OMG!!! Seriously?!?!

Lovin your review, sweetie (as always!)...will be following along. I have a similar smoke story from our cruise on the Legend that week...BRB...

[Irishlinny]

So it was Tuesday...heading back from hangin with the rays in Grand Cayman. There were 6 ships in port (UGH!) and we see smoke all around OUR SHIP!:eek:

 

Now we had already learned of the Splendor, so I was ready to panic! Fortunately as we got closer, we realized it was something on land in front of our ship. Odd that there were multiple smoke incidences that week.

ooops! Sorry for the hijack! Carry on...can't wait for the rest:D

[rainbowflag]

Yep, those keep rats from running up the lines and boarding the ship. Most of the time ships use large round metal collars for the same purpose but these are a cute take on an old design.

HA! Well they're cute AND practical in that case...and I didn't see anything cute or otherwise on OUR lines and I LOOKED after that, that's all I know!!:p

 

 

And hey Linny, right with the smoke?? Ours was before we heard, and it freaked me out when we heard later...

 

No worries, hijack away, I say so:D....we're just here to relive and have FUN!!!:p

The toga party incident.... for some time now in the thread we have been batting around the toga party and had narrowed down when we planned to have it and where (Nassau day after late dinner in the piano bar).

Well due to some shenanigans that my doppelganger Bob Anderson had written with some of the lovely ladies of the Crazie Dreamers forum I somehow was in danger....danger of being jumped and forcefully dressed in a toga. I had only caught the occasional hint of this master plot to surprise me with duct tape (pink in color no less) and a toga sheet, and further toga party adornments. I brushed all these idol threat off as harmless posturing... Boy was I wrong!

 

On the night in question I entered the Piano bar none the wiser to the sinister plot that was afoot. Now I noticed several exchanged glances as the ring leader gave the nod, with a whisper the plan sprang into action. A bed sheet appeared from nowhere and I was being flanked from all sides by duct tape crazed women in toga outfits.!!!!

 

Gentlemen, the fear and horror I felt was unimaginable, what pain and suffering was I to endure? Just what did these crazed women with duct tape have in mind? I stood my ground and fought off the urge to scream like a 5 year old girl. Well I actually just sat there and kept saying ..ummm what are you all doing... But I assure you that the pain and mental anguish was real, I was in fear for my life....we at least in fear of exactly where they planned to put that duct tape!

 

From here on out it becomes a blur, I remember being bound and wrapped like a hastily wrapped present for the duct tape toga women's amusement. My camera has some photographic evidence of the occurrence, my my mind has rightfully blocked out the incident so as not to have me relive the horror over and over. I only share the following pictures with you in hopes that you remain aware. The toga women of duct tape can and do attack with little to no provocation. Be afraid be very afraid!

 

 

 

and that that dag gun Peter just had to get in on the photo too! Such a camera Hog!

 

Remember folks remain alert, the are out there!

 

I want to thank the aforementioned duct tape wielding women of the toga incident for making this quite an interesting evening, you all are truly Crazie!

I wonder if penthouse might be interested in a slightly different take on this story hmmmm.....with some poetic license and some much needed hyperbole hmmmmmm

 

 

[floatingaway2525]

Toga toga toga was set to start in the PB and go from there as we pleased...fun fun fun to have that huge meal and go back to the cabin and get toga'd!!!

 

For a minute when I got there I thought I was the only one in a toga:eek: but that idea soon dissolved big time...

 

 

 

This is Tom the Piano Man and our Mikeyman...no togas in sight yet...

 

Here we go...

 

And as you see above, the best was yet to come!!!

[floatingaway2525]

My favorite toga pics LMAO!!! You rock Bob/Ward!!!

LOLOL look at Caly's face in this one!!! She's havin' FUN!!

 

 

 

 

 

[floatingaway2525]

Ahhhh good times good times...this party continued into the disco for some of us, who champagned the night away until they threw us out at 3:confused:...it was all good because the next day is a glorious day at sea, at our leisure...I was a-hurtin' so it was a gooooood thang....:eek::o
