Don’t tell us you chopped off a finger….

👊

I took this at Coral World on Coke Beach in 2013. No, this was not zoomed in. It let me get the camera this close. The last 2 pictures were on the Powerboat Adventures excursion while we vacationed at Atlantis in 2006. One of the stops was a small beach filled with iguanas that we fed grapes to off sticks.

I guess every family has to have one. Me? I can tell you where we went on vacation each year since 2003 (cruises as well as land), which ship, which ports and what we did on those port days. My wife? Not a clue.

You and me both. On our Celebration cruise last June, my wife had a casino special that provided her free drinks throughout the duration of the cruise, even though she doesn't drink. I was finally able to buy the Cheers package, as I've never previously been able for that very reason.

DOH! Reading comprehension issues on my part. I thought I read you were only able to buy Cheers for 1 in a room. I knew that, but I misread it.

Wait... you bought the package for the both of you or just the mister? Did I read that correctly?

I believe you set a pretty high bar.

Finally. I caught one of these Live reviews early. Naturally, I'm following.

The cold weather forecast for Sunday-Monday-Tuesday next week made its way to DFW. There is talk of snow showers and temps as low as single digits and highs in the 20's. That's just nasty. I can only listen to Reed scream for so long when there's a tornado on the ground. I follow him on X, as his forecasts are very accurate.

Like others, I checked earlier today and this review had not yet started. Now it’s already on page 8. I’m definitely following, and hopefully @sid_9169 has his own live review. I think I need to buy extra LiquidIV this weekend as my liver will take a beating just reading how many adult beverages will be consumed amongst all of the gang. (I really did take a quick peak at the Carnival website a few times over the past couple of months in the event of an opening for this epic event, but it wasn’t to be.)

Like you, I got more than a few drinks on both sides of the wall at 820. There were very few times that the outside bar wasn’t open.

Our room was right next to these aft elevators on the starboard side. We really didn’t have much of a problem. Isn’t that just downright freakin’ rude? I might have to play golf next Thursday and work Friday based on that forecast. It’s normally a day off on Fridays.

Gotta say - I got quite a few drinks at this bar in June. My wife WAS a smoker on that cruise, and as you know, the smoking section was just beyond that bar. I walked by there frequently when she was socializing and smoking.

Either those drinks all day are very weak or you’re both done for the rest of the cruise. I think my liver just took a hit by simply looking at all of the drinks.

I have a screenshot from Coach Cruise’s video on our embarkation night in June of my wife and I sitting in the chairs right in front of the guy with the gray shorts walking on the carpet.

Dexter was there when I was on the Celebration in June.

Nor can we list some of the other song titles.

I think I still have an album of theirs from back in the day. I wore out their “SMU Sorority B*@$#.” IYKYK

Those were our go-to seats and bar on the Celebration in June.

Just went to YouTube and tried to watch Coach Cruise’s video of the diamond lounge. Unfortunately the picture was so horrible that you couldn’t really see much. It was like trying to take a video with the old dial-up.

Coach Cruise was on my Celebration cruise at the end of June that was delayed due to the boat crash near the port. I was in his videos at least 5 times that I counted.

I can post a screenshot. Your chariot awaits.

At this point, you use those tags as entertainment value, as they never appear to be correct. Enjoy the cruise!

Well, EFF, on the news that Maria is gone now. I could have sworn that she told me in June that she was to be on the Celebration through January.
