rlazarski Posted August 12, 2004 #2 Share Posted August 12, 2004 We encountered the most obnoxious and wierdest group in our many years of cruising. There is a LARGE group of senior citizens who live somewhere in Florida who have this cruise club called the Pink Flamingos. They make t-shirts, all color coordinated, ugly door decos, and they all carry around an inflatable 3 foot long pink flamingo. :eek: It all sounds harmless until you have to deal with them for a 10 day cruise. I saw those damn birds at breakfast, lunch, dinner, at shows, the casino, and even had a pink bird thrust between my legs on the elevator. I mean really this group was OBNOXIOUS. They also massed at the nightly shows taking all the front row seats. Ok, first come first served. BUT, when you look over at this group after the first act and they all are passed out cold, you wonder. JUST WANT TO LET YOU KNOW, MR OR MRS PINK FLAMINGO, MY GREEN FROG IS OUT TO GET YOUR BIRD. Watch out for the next cult, the Fraternal Order of the Killer frogs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
argys mom Posted August 13, 2004 #3 Share Posted August 13, 2004 Hi Rick! We were on that cruise with you, and I laughed out loud when I read the thread, but I didn't realize it was you until the green frog part! I seem to remember you and Linda have a cruise coming up. We are taking a quick 4-day Baja on RCI in Sept. Have a great time, and watch out for the flamingos! --Pam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finflapper Posted August 29, 2004 #4 Share Posted August 29, 2004 That was sooooo funny to read. Thanks for the warning. I'll be on the look out for any pink flamingo's on my cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rlazarski Posted August 30, 2004 #5 Share Posted August 30, 2004 That was sooooo funny to read. Thanks for the warning. I'll be on the look out for any pink flamingo's on my cruise. No problema, they were obnoxious. Geez louise! Just for laughs one of our cruise buddies sent us a pink flamingo care package complete with an inflated bird for Christmas. We nearly died laugiung. That's ok, we'll see him on the ship in 2 weeks and guess where that bird is going? Cheers :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, have fun on your cruise. We go in 6 more days if Frances or some other storm won't cooperate. Not as lively a crew as the last cruise but getting them whipped up about the frog culture. :rolleyes: See ya! Got my e-mail? Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merrilymeggily Posted November 5, 2004 #9 Share Posted November 5, 2004 I don't think this one is weird, but it is a ritual for me. One the last night of my cruise, no matter who I'm traveling with, I find a quiet spot in a lounge all by myself and have a glass of champagne and some caviar. I have always enjoyed this little custom of mine. Alas, on my last cruise, I had a horrific allergic reaction to the caviar -- the whole magilla: one eye bloodshot, the other swollen shut, face swollen, throat closed, couldn't breath. I had to run to find help. Luckily, the condition didn't worsen and I was OK. That's one tradition that I'll miss. Plus on my last cruise, i traveled with friends who have a 2 year old granddaughter. They brought her stuffed duck with them on the cruise, and we took him everywhere and took pictures of him all over the ship and on excursions -- we have him in the sand, on a hammock, on a breach chair, with the captain, "playing" piano, etc. Got the point where some of the crew would quack at us when we walked by and my friend bacame known as the Duck Lady. When we cruise to Bermuda on the Zenith in May, we're taking the duck with us again! A new tradition is born. ~~~MEG~~~ "I wanna leave NOW" Three-time Century cruiser Western Caribbean: 2000/2004 Eastern Caribbean: 2001 ZENITH: MAY 14, 2005 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr green Posted November 7, 2004 #10 Share Posted November 7, 2004 :) Ever see a dozen monks on a cruise? I believe that they were on the Statendam in '02. They enjoyed everything, including the Casino.:D john taylor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
