When you go to St. Thomas and San Juan you aren't leaving the United States so all they take are US$

[Wennfred]

Short for Passengers and all Ports close to the U.S. take U.S. Dollars.

May I ask some more silly questions?

 

Just who are DH and DD? They seem to travel with an awful lot of different people! ;)

 

Seriously, though! DH: dear husband? dreary husband? DD: dumb daughter?

TrueCruiser,

 

That's where I saw the word PAX first -- in one of your posts. Just wasn't sure and didn't want to assume anything. In my mind, I was thinking they would say people instead of passengers and people I've seen abbreviated as ppl, but there's no X in passengers, so pax didn't seem to fit.

 

DUH!:)

[caribbean dreams]

When you go to St. Thomas and San Juan you aren't leaving the United States so all they take are US$

 

Just make sure you don't ask any locals if they take US dollars, I saw a fight almost break out when someone asked.

[truecruiser]

sorry 'bout the confusion. i use that all of the time.

[LABecca]

Yes DH Dearest Husband and DD Dearest, Dumbest, Dreary Daughter. LOL!

[NCTribeFan]

No, seriously! I keep seeing DH, etc. and I sit and go through every combination of words that I can think of and nothing makes sense! Females seem to refer to their "mate" as DH, and I just don't get it.

 

:o

It does if you're really annoyed with them!;)

[crusinmama06]

Well I guess that would depend on who it is. ;)

[NCTribeFan]

Ha! Great! I guess my guess was pretty close after all. Thanks!

 

So, I'll be sailing just with my DD this time. If she posted here, she'd probably refer to me as MM (Money Mom), since she probably only consents to travel with me because I pay her way! :D

the x in passenger is like the x in christmas.

In the real world PAX

1. Ecclesiastical a. A small flat tablet adorned with a sacred image that worshippers kiss when offered the kiss of peace.

b. The kiss of peace.

 

2. Pax A time of wide-ranging stability when there is only a single dominant power.

 

Only on Cruise Critic pax=passenger :eek:
