We're "Barking" in 4 Weeks...Anyone Else Have Silly Cruise Sayings???

[GUT2407]

On our grandaughter's first cruise with us we got a last minute upgrade to a suite. They were still in an inside cabin. Our granddaughter asked her parents why Grandma and Grandpa were making them sleep in a closet.

 

 

I can relate to that, that is how I feel in an inside.:D

On the day we leave to head down to the airport, I ask everyone "What day is it?"

The answer? "Cruuuuuuuuuiseday!"

 

However in light of the new 'humpday' commercial I have a feeling the 'accent' will change next time around, lol!:p

 

Love it - but I would say that on embarkation day, not the day before.

When my son was little, there was a little dog walking on the sidewalk with his tail up. He says "Mommy, I can see that dog's porthole" We laugh about it on every cruise!

 

OMG that's hilarious! When you hear something like that you know somebody is addicted to cruising.

When my nephew was a little boy pants and shirts for everyday were kept in drawers. Suits and jackets and the like were kept on hangers in the closet. Whenever he was going somewhere he would ask my sister "Do I have to wear "Hanging Clothes"? We cruise frequently together and whenever we're discussing clothes for the trip, particularly for formal nights, invariably someone will ask "What are you bringing for Hanging Clothes?"

On vacation, DH dresses like Charlie Sheen -- cargo shorts and a short-sleeved buttoned shirt. His vacation shirts are all now "Charlie Shirts". "Allen Shirts" are the same style, but plaid.

 

Imagine us at Kohls, "Honey, do you like this one?" "No, I have enough Allen shirts. More Charlies, please."

Sue: I thought you lived up to your name when I read your double post.

We called our inside cabin "the Cave".

Whenever we get back from a cruise everyone always asks how it was (as I guess happens to most of us).

 

I always answer "Awful,... Every time I turned around someone was shoving a drink into my hand and force feeding me 24/7" :D:D

I didn't finish my post:

 

So now every time we go on another cruise with them, my DH asks them if a closet is OK.

 

But thanks to a great offer from a casino we go to, our next RCI cruise will have all of us in separate aft balcony cabins.

All I could think of was the old Tweety and Sylvester cartoon where they are on a ship and Tweety holds up picture of a ship and moves it back and forth in front of Sylvester and says "the sea is getting rouffer and rouffer" and Sylvester turns a pea-green shade....

 

So every time there was a roll or shudder after sail away I would look at my friend and say "Oh Puddy-tat. Da sea is getting vewy rouff" in my very best Tweety Bird accent.

 

As the cruise progressed just saying "Oh Puddy" was our way of saying there was more ship movement than we cared for....

 

Yup - this sounds like something that would come from someone in their 50's, doesn't it??? ;) Maybe we just need more vacations.

I once may have had one too many Bushwackers (google it - yum) while lounging at a sea bar in port. In the cab back to ship - I was very earnestly telling the driver how "beuful" his island was which prompted gales of laughter from my daughter and friend. Now we always say beuful instead of beautiful.

Funny how sometimes the littlest things will always bring back a cruise memory.
