You should of wore the yellow thong on formal night......ROFLMFAO........:eek::D:p

 

My original Halloween plan was to do a Braveheart thing with my kilt and a long blonde wig.

 

I decided there was enough guys walking around the ship in skirts and cheap wigs. :eek:

Allen would'a prolly been pinchin your beeee-hind if you did......:D

I still can't believe how many idiots ask the "What do you wear under your kilt question".....You handled it well though....."MY SHOES"........;)

The funny was on Halloween night at the casino bar when the girl said "Hey , nice outfits and priest and a Scotsman".......I told her my Halloween outfit I was wearing later and you informed her you were wearing your dress uniform from the RCAF....She didn't like us very much after that......LOL.......;)

Oh, you know it! :) I just wish my memory was not so fragmented... SFS... I blame it on sleep deprivation (because surely alcohol had NOTHING to do with it), which started Halloween night I do believe. I recall hanging out with a bunch of you crazy-azz muthas in the piano bar.... and Lucy, you did make a cameo there -- I remember you in your wench outfit at the bar ;). And Randy as the stealthy ostrich-rider....lol.... Jeffie as an escaped mental patient, Smoof as White Trash (very creative, I might add), Maria as Medusa, Cap'n Rob as a Pirate with Scurvy (aaargh!!!!), Laurie as "Miss Behavin", and I was the conflicted nun -- trying to run around blessing everyone..... Futile effort that was! Haha!:D

 

I know I am forgetting many creative costumes, but my workday is over.... brain is spent & it's time to pack up and go home. Somebody jog my memory..... I'll play more tomorrow! Now who's gonna meet me on aft Lido for 2 am pizza? :p

Embarkation Day – Stayed at the Conrad until 1pm checkout. Felt like it took nearly an hour to get to the port as I had cabbie make two stops for stuff. CCL check in was painless. Only delay was upstairs waiting for the security photo—just a slow moving line compared to all the other lines--no biggie. I was a very late starter on the drinking scene since I boarded so late in the day. I remember HR was the first person I saw up on the Lido Deck. I sat at a table with Zone, ordered a bucket of Coronas and since all four beers arrived open in those plastic glasses I had to down them quickly :D before they went flat. I remember going to muster drill, sail away I was on deck 10, and next thing I recall was being seated for dinner with J-mon, Cindy, Laurie, and waiting for WeBe’s arrival. ‘Lost’ my ass—I think WeBe likes a grand entrance! ;) I popped into the Piano Bar for a look see and then headed off to the Palladium for the nightly show where I ran into Cindy & Laurie (it was that first night, wasn’t it, girls?—ah hell, it could have been the next night—just so long ago). :confused:

 

KW – I stayed on the ship for some much-needed catch-up sleep. That’s not what I had planned but sometimes I have to go with just what happens. :) Next thing I recall I’m at dinner again. The Al-Je anniversary celebration was a trip highlight. LOL!!! :D After dinner may have been lights out for me. I think I’ll just stop here with trying to relay any nighttime recap as I was only out late one night and no clue what night except that it was on Leg 1. My days don’t get any more exciting :rolleyes: so I may end my story here!

Somebody jog my memory..... I'll play more tomorrow! Now who's gonna meet me on aft Lido for 2 am pizza? :p

 

I can't jog your memory BUT I'll join on aft Lido!!! Miss teasing you!!! :D

Hey Pamie....Have you made our reservation for the supperclub on Legend yet ???????

[WeBeCruisin']

Yep...you were there. That was the night I had a beautiful young lady with me I met, Lonnel. It was so funny because I offered her my seat and she said crew could not sit if a pax needed a seat. I asked her if Carnival would like a complaint letter that a crew member would not grant my request ? She laughed...I got up and she had a seat......;)

She turned out to be one of the many highlights of the cruise........:cool:

Right Allen.......:p

 

Absolutely! Be still, my foolish heart! :)

[WeBeCruisin']

And you're right, Jeffie. I did have to work tonight. Just got home a bit ago.

2am? Honey... we are still singing strawberry fields at 2am :p LMAO!!!! And then we are heading to the disco... more like maybe 4am?? I'll meet you there, but you know it will take some convincing to get me to stop talking and actually eat!!! LOL! I freaking miss my wingnut!! And all my 4am aft deckers!!! And everyone else! i'm struggling this week...i really need to get my link up tomorrow!! I've just been slacking and had a lot on my mind since I returned home.

 

Oh yeah... I talked to Zach and Abbey and I'm trying to talk them into cruising with us on 5... also, thinking about maybe a spring quickie out of Orlando and they were all over that. Those are 2 of the best people I've met on a cruise ever... just adore them!!! They are SOOOOOO S&S material! LOL!!!

[Sea Turtle]

Hey Pamie....Have you made our reservation for the supperclub on Legend yet ???????

 

I'd be happy to place a reservation. How many in your party, sir? ;)

[WeBeCruisin']

 

We had a bottle of white wine at dinner each night. Jeffie and Pamie drank red wine and Laurie abstained, and I was having gin martinis which means that Cindy was drinking just about the whole bottle at dinner each night. :D:eek::D

That would be great! They were a beautiful couple, and so out-going and open and friendly. That would be great if they could make it on SS5. :cool:

See there the truth at last is told--Cindy is now the resident white wino!!! :p;):p

[WeBeCruisin']

It's still a work in progress. I can tell when I've received calls and hear the voice message, but I'm still having trouble actually placing calls. SFS:confused:

[Lilmatcat]

Hey Pamie....Have you made our reservation for the supperclub on Legend yet ???????

 

LOL... you're worried about dinner reservations? I'd think you would be more worried on how you are going to fit ALL the S&Sers in your house for our pre-boarding night of fun in Tampa.

[jessemon]

Maybe I could arrange a "barhop bus".......:eek:

[GoinCruisin]

Oh we cried like babies when saying goodbye! I love them as if I have known them for years... and like I told them, they are both wise beyond their years. I hope to stay in touch with them for many years to come!!! And talk about fun!! I really hope they can make it on S&S 5... I sent them the info, now we all need to bug them about it!! I need to get them on CC!!! I sent them some GREAT pics!! LOL!!

 

And FYI, on a personal note.... Alan is doing better today, me and Alason have researched the hell out of this cancer and treatments... we are hoping he will come to Duke and have the Davinci method done... which means we will have them all here for at least a week, which will make me happy! OIB will be a total kick azz party next year, I'll just say that!!!

[GoinCruisin]

Maybe I could arrange a "barhop bus".......:eek:

 

Speaking of barhop bus... tomorrow I need to get over and get a review going on the bus tour, but have to be careful... will keep you guys posted, but keep in mind, we got a deal because we were the first and we are S&S'ers which are beloved by our friend :D But we need to make sure that all the people that treated us so great (Tom, Damian, Lonnel, Jack, etc) are given great reviews... also, Coconuts, the Rasta Bar, etc. These are all the people that truly made this one of my favorite cruises!!!!! And all of you!! FTLOG, I miss you all so much it's not fair!!!!!

[jessemon]

OK....Back to the review. Must be Cozumel time kids.....LOL

Ship is delayed due to illness of a passanger. Believe it or not some idiot (not in our group) though is moaning about being delayed for three hours on the boards from the ship........grrrrrrrr.....

Sorry, but I just had to mention this. I am still peezed over that. A life was saved....That is what is great and this group had this person in our T's & P's in our hopes and prayers.......

Anyways instead of getting on the "BARHOP PARTY BUS" at the scheduled time we had to spend it on deck dranking.....Oooooops.....LOL

We get off the ship (following Lucy & Ricky like little ducklings) and meet up with Tom....What a host....Hand out to everyone and hugs to those he knows. He was a friend to everyone the moment he met you...I will always make sure to contact him anytime I am in Coz. Off to Paradise Beach in the bus....after cracking the chit out of my head on the overhead luggage rack on the bus. I haven't seen that many concerned looks in my life since I blewout my knee in HS football. Thanks to himself I'm Irish.:D

Paradise beach is great. The bar staff wonderful and the beach is beautiful. Due to the daylight hours being shortened we also have to cut the visits a little short at your stops. Allen by the way at this point has three pairs of womens undies on his head......hmmmmmmmmmm:eek:

Off to the next stop. A bar on the southeast corner of the island. What a view. Waves crashing and not the usual sand beaches on the west side. People are really getting loose now. Several of the more mature crowd with us are now wearing Allen's undies on their heads. Drinks are flowing and everyone is laughing and having a great time.

Did I mention that Tom is a great host. Even had beers and a rum something or other on the bus for us.....

Off to the place I really wanted to see...Coconuts......I, as all were not disappointed. This is the nuts. Walk up stone and sand stairs to the highest point on the island. Very lush and beautiful. Did I mention that Tom said their were "skeeters" there and had insect repellant for us all on the bus ? The bar sits on top of a craggy cliff overlooking the gulf. It is beautiful. The tiki bar is great. Old t-shirts for decor. Signs from different parts of the world that people put up when they get there. Supper staff and a cute stray adopted small dog that atopted Allen. The old softy. I will leave my last comment alone. I am sure someone else will jump on it.....so to speak.....:eek:

before we left we were invited to watch the bar release sea turtles that they had found as eggs and hatched. That was great........

off to CNC and here is where the blurring starts. Help.....it was the first time in 15 years I drank tequila......it was fun.......:eek::D

 

To end this by the way on a great note. I was sitting next to a gentleman the next evening who was with the small group of people who was with the person taken from the ship. 5 hours of surgery and good results with the outcome being very good.........and a full recovery was expected........

[Bonds73]

Unfortunately much of Key West is a bit of a blur for me. Laurie and I did get some great shopping in, the Canadian girls couldn’t pass up the Coach outlet store…..oh I am still dreaming about it !!!! After dragging poor Rick and Trevor around to every store we decided that we had tortured them enough and it was time to reward them with some cold beverages. When we arrived most of the group was well on there way and the only thing we could do was attempt to catch up, and this is just what we did.

During the catch up period I believe there was some dancing on the stage to a lovely song, I actually still find myself humming the song…..I don’t think I will ever forget it. Oh and we can’t forget our visit from “Santa” and how lovely he put some stickers on our shirts. I do think I remember someone telling him that “they were a very naughty girl this year”…..and it wasn’t me !!!! It was shortly after this that Laurie FORCED me to purchase one of those lovely t-shirts and I do believe there was more singing and dancing on the stage, who would have known we had such a talent J

Time to head back to ship and drink some more beer in the lineup that thankfully my husband was trying to smuggle back on the ship, not sure how many made it since I think we were handing them out to everyone in the lineup. We got back on the ship, up to the lido for some shooters (so the pictures told me), Chris I have the best picture of you and Trevor…..you crack me up girl !!!!! I think at this point my hubby might have to finish this up, I do believe that me and my b—bie shirt went to bed for the remainder of the day/night. Not to worry Trevor still was able to enjoy the remainder of the day by enjoying the company of many other group members, he seemed to think he was the “mayor” of the ship…..ha-ha !!!!

[Margarita Mom]

Angie, I think your memory of the day up to around two o'clock was pretty accurate, except, I believe the shirt purchasing was your idea and I was just trying to make your trip memorable by playing along. We do have talents though.

 

I'll finish your review of the day, since you were busy for the next 12 hours..... resting.

 

I spent the rest of the afternoon, looking after drunk people and rescuing damsils in dstress in the pool. Had a lovely lunch with Allen until my husband fell asleep and I had to escort him back to the room for a nap.

 

I got back to the room around 5:00. Rick was done napping. We got ready for formal night and went to the Captian's party. Had supper with your husband. We had the best formal night ever.... or so Trevor said. His words not mine. We went back to the cabin to get into our costumes. Had a few drinks with Trevor, Jess, Lynn and Zone and headed to the piano bar. It was a great day.
