Hello from somewhere in the Pacific Ocean!
We had some bumps last night but towards morning the sea
flattened out and it’s only been large swells today. Haven’t heard any more announcements about
the rough seas ahead but we are having some interesting move as I write this.
The day was mostly cloudy and cool so the inside of the ship
was full of passengers…imagine that!
Had a slow start to the morning so we skipped breakfast and
Dad went to get a massage while I had a go at the slot machines. The casino will be closed during our stay in
Hawaii so I have to make up for some lost time!
Trivia was next and I joined a group of nice women who
contributed absolutely nothing so I made a mental note to avoid the mental
midgets.
Had a meeting with the folks who joined the roll call on
Cruise Critic web site and it was a poor showing of about 20-25 people. The Captain of the ship showed up to say
hello and proved to be a very social guy.
I resisted the urge to ask him about any Serbian girlfriends or rock
avoidance strategies! I’m sure he’s
heard all the jokes already. I really
wanted to make sure he wasn’t afflicted with “premature evacuation”!!
We had a really nice pizza for lunch in the new pizzeria and
then we went early to get seat for the “big game”. I lost interest pretty early……before it
started! Went to the afternoon trivia
and met up with some folks from London who must have been educated at the same
school with the morning ladies. We did
alright but, again, they had no answers.
Guess I’ll have to give placement tests!!
Here’s a funny. Dad
was asked by a guy, who came into the game late ,who the crowd was rooting for
and Dad replied “the Giants”. So the guy
says that’s because most of the people on the cruise are from San Francisco and
it’s their team. Dad was happy to inform
him that the SF Giants were a BASEBALL team!!
Funniest part is the guy is from SF!!!
I am getting the feeling we are sailing on “The Ship of
Fools”!!!
I’ll check in tomorrow with the wave report!
Lots of love,
XOXOXOXO

Premature evacuation! Mom, you shock me. Not! Good one. A guy from SF thinking their football team was in the superbowl. Boy, given the niner hype that happened this year, I do think you'd have to have been living under a rock to have gotten that all mixed up. What's the demographic of the people on the ship? Really seems a little odd to have such dum-masses.
ReplyDeleteThe average age looks to be death minus 6 months to a year!!!!
DeleteThere are about 25 kids under the age of 12 and about 2700 people that could be their GREAT grandparents!
Well I guess that makes sense given the time of year, but interesting location choice for the nearly dead!
