Old welcome aboard

[yaktheback]

I found this in my mom and dad's house while cleaning it out. I can remember them going on this cruise when I was very young. Anyone know about what year

TRUE!

But....how about the coat and tie required in all public areas - after 6 pm - for the gentlemen??? ;)

I love that! I want to go back to coat and tie required. Time Travel cruising. That's the ticket.

I typed "Bahama Star" into Wikipedia and here somewhat of the ship's history. It sister ship had a tragic ending that probably made cruising safer for us all now.

Thanks for pointing that one out. I missed it on my original read.

 

Hey dress for success and feel like a million bucks I say. I would be game for that...

 

I know going in what to expect...and would not try to buck the system..

 

They have ships like that now. The high end ones. I would like to try one of those once, but am lacking the 15-20K needed for a weeks cruise....I never had a butler before.....:D

From the article it seems they were not sisters, but Bahama star was nearby and helped to save many lives.

When we boarded the Queen Elizabeth in 1964 we received a list of all passengers on board!

Same thing for us on the Norway in 1994. Looking at that Bahama Star evening schedule, it's funny how things haven't changed all that much. Bingo and a floor show! :)
