What a nightmare!

After planning a cruise on the Mariner for a year the time finally arrived. Then our flight was cancelled and we just made the launch. Our luggage didn't make it with us. Then since we were so late, our suite was sold as an upgrade so we got the last inside cabin on a low deck.
Lost my wallet and sea pass in Nassau and almost couldn't get back on the ship. Next day I was so angry I got in a fight with a chair hog and was warned by the captain. My wife got sick eating at Johnny Rockets after we paid the surcharge. At St. Thomas our stateroom was raided by the DEA but all they found was candles. The teens on the ship thought it would be funny to stop the elevator and we got stuck between floors for several hours. The whole time I really needed to use the restroom since I had just eaten ranch steak. We bought a bottle of rum in St. Martin but it got confiscated by security. So we decided to go play bingo the last day. We bingo'd on the last game which had a $15,000 pot but the game card had expired so we were disqualified. I went back to our room and went to sleep only to find an old condom under the sheets. Then I woke up realizing it's only 2 more months until our cruise and I am reading way too much Cruise Critic boards!!!!!

Much funnier than the April Fool's joke posted. I had to go look at the date you posted to make sure it wasn't April 1. However, something told me this couldn't be true and read your last line. But I still think it was funny. [img]http://messages.cruisecritic.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_razz.gif[/img]
