Can't wait for the rest

I was mistaken about our entertainment from last night. It was Gangham Style last night and tonight was the Bollywood song Shake, Shake, Shake.

 

 

 

 

I REALLY love this dress. My birthday was originally going to be on elegant night until the itinerary switch.

 

 

Michelle and the gang sang happy birthday to me. When I blew out my candle, I wished for my second ice cream that was missing off my warm chocolate melting cake. lol

 

 

 

So I have to share the conversation that just took place between my 4 year old son and I:

 

Son: Is that a queen?

Me: No...why do you ask?

Son: Then why is she wearing a tiara?

Me: It's her birthday!

Son: Awww how sweet. I wish I could do something nice for her and wish her happy birthday.

Me: speechless!! He's starting young!!!!

 

Your reviews are great! You seriously have me considering doing a solo cruise!

[monogrammedbelle]

He had abs harder than an Aston Martin payment.

 

I have laughed, laughed, and LAUGHED about this all day long.

 

You're a gem - I can't wait for the next installment! :)

[True Texan]

Love this review and your sense of humor. Wish I keep up with you on a cruise but I am usually in bed by 12. Please keep the review going.

[Barbluvstocruz]

You...and your review are Fantastic! I've been looking all day for the next installment!

:D :D

Kim he is a good looking guy. We may need to fight over him :)

Gapearl! As always, I am loving your review! It is almost like I am right there with you! Pay no mind to those who criticize, few that they be. You have a huge group of followers and admirers here, who love your reviews, because you are a fun person who knows how how to enjoy life! Thanks for taking the time to do another great review. Loved the video too:)

[BettyPC]

I am enjoying your review! Now you know how John Heald feels! Keep up the great job - I have been reading excerpts to my husband (along w/showing him the cute pictures of you in your tiara & banner).

Loving your review! I'm sailing on Liberty in October, but always love how you write and add pictures to your reviews. Thank you so much.

[tiggerttfn61]

Thank you for taking the time to read!

 

 

 

Hi Kathy! Next time you're in Cozumel, you could go to the tequila tasting before the beach. We were only there maybe 20-30 minutes so you could still have plenty of beach time after. Thanks so much for following along!

 

So enjoying your review. Hope ours paths meet someday soon! Your a stunning young women. Your knight will come along soon.

[INCHARGE]

I absolutely love your birthday dress! I like your choice of wearing the black shoes. At first I wondered how it would look with gold shoes, by your description, but the gold in the dress stands out alone. Girl, you did it up for your birthday.

[Ms. Fun Bunch]

Kim,

This is another wonderful review!!!!

I really enjoy your writing style!!!! Please keep it coming!!! One of your many fans!!!

[maritaysa]

Always enjoy your reviews. I spent one weekend this month reading Jackie Collins' new book, and the next weekend reading your reviews. Thank you for taking the time to entertain us. You do a great job!

[littlekid58]

My hubby and I enjoy your reviews.... cannot wait for more... :)

[gapearl]

A belated happy birthday! Loving this review! This review is making me even more excited for the Magic's move to Port Canaveral.

 

Thank you very much! You all are going to love her when she gets there.

 

Hey GAPearl!

 

Would you mind sharing the name of the apps you used? I'm looking to learn some conversational Spanish (I took French in high school, so no real Spanish background, and I remember only a little in French!). Thanks! :)

 

I started with a $5 app called Mind Snacks that was 50 lessons. I went in my app store and downloaded pretty much everything Spanish. You have to stay consistent because it's so true that you lose it if you don't use it. I might study for 3 months, then stop for 3 months, which is why I'm not at a 100% fluency level yet. Look for that app though. It's a great introduction. I also have it in French, Italian, and Portuguese. :)

[gapearl]

What a great way to spend a birthday! And girl, you looked fabulous on your special day!

 

I am super disappointed in your new friend Jason. How in the heck could he choose the casino over making a beautiful woman smile on her birthday? Not cool! :(

 

Thank you very much! Jason was really cool. We exchanged information and hopefully will keep in touch.

 

Omg! Best review hands down!

 

Thanks girl! :)

[gapearl]

I have been away from cruise critic for awhile and I come back to find a 500+ post review from you plus a video. What is that??? now I am going to have to step up my game on my next review. I am only on the first post :D and I love it already

 

Brianna! Giiirrrrrllllll you've got some catching up to do! :D

 

YES, because you totally got a shout out in this review!

 

GAPearl, awesome review as usual! :D

 

Yes, I sure did! And thank you! :)

[gapearl]

Oh really?? Well now I've gotta subscribe and continue reading. I'm only on post #54

 

If you're just on #54 then you've got a while before you get to it. It's on Cozumel day.

 

Keep reading, it's very interesting and fun!

 

:D:D:D

[gapearl]

Ok I will. I'm at work and trying to get some work done but thanks to Kim's review not much is getting done today

 

Oh I've gotten nothing done for over a week writing this. lol

 

We had the opposite feeling. We had a guide from a Carnival tour and we never got to really LOOK at things as they kept us moving and spent a LOT of time yapping! I had really wanted to opportunity to look around and absorb.

If only there was a happy medium. Time to look plus a SHORT history lesson. lol

[gapearl]

Can't wait for the rest

 

Thank you! I still have two more full days to cover. Hopefully I can have it done by the end of the weekend.

 

So I have to share the conversation that just took place between my 4 year old son and I:

 

Son: Is that a queen?

Me: No...why do you ask?

Son: Then why is she wearing a tiara?

Me: It's her birthday!

Son: Awww how sweet. I wish I could do something nice for her and wish her happy birthday.

Me: speechless!! He's starting young!!!!

 

Your reviews are great! You seriously have me considering doing a solo cruise!

 

Awwww your son is so sweet! Clearly you're raising a very kind young man. :) Tell him I said thank you! And yes, book a solo cruise. You'll definitely enjoy it, I promise!

[iloverags2]

Yay! An awesome birthday! Coconuts looks like a great place to hang out in Cozumel...will have to check that out next time I am there. Sorry your Birthday Girl glass didn't make it through the evening...it was so cute.

 

Looking forward to hearing/reading more!

[tpiper55]

Tonight we danced to "Shake, Shake, Shake," a fun Bollywood kind of song.

 

 

 

OMG Girl you are simply the bomb diggety do-dah!! Not only do you offer amazing reviews, port feedback, and FASHION ADVICE, you give us Zumba Instructors GREAT new rhythms to choreograph for our classes :);):D

 

I googled that song as soon as I read it and and I'm rolling it out in tonight's class. I know you used to take (and LOVE) Zumba, so if you ever stuck at RIC, I'd LOVE for you to drop in to one of my classes:D:D

[gapearl]

You...and your review are Fantastic! I've been looking all day for the next installment!

:D :D

 

Thank you so much! Sorry I didn't get anything done yesterday. I had a pool day in Las Vegas and then hung out on the Strip after. I was a bit distracted. lol

 

Kim he is a good looking guy. We may need to fight over him :)

 

We sure will! Just don't go pulling my weave out! :D

[gapearl]

Sailing on Magic in November and am loving your review! Thank you so much for all the work you're putting into it!

 

Thank you Sky Lark! Have a fabulous time on your cruise!

 

I am enjoying your review! Now you know how John Heald feels! Keep up the great job - I have been reading excerpts to my husband (along w/showing him the cute pictures of you in your tiara & banner).

 

Thanks Betty! Yes, I definitely understand how he feels. I don't know how he does it. I'm glad you and your husband are enjoy the pictures and the review. I should have some more posted tonight.
