Yorkvillain Posted February 1, 2017 #1 Share Posted February 1, 2017 (edited) Don’t blink. Seriously, don’t bat your eyes for more than a tenth of a second because this brief 3-night Super Bowl weekend cruise will probably be over by the time you get to this joystick emoji [emoji973]. Our 5-night Grandeur trip last year was the shortest cruise we had ever done up until that point. Now grab a ridiculously dull Bic razor blade and shave off a couple of more days and I start to wonder if flying down for this 72-hour pedal boat ride is even worth it. I plan to periscope a little ( @yorkvillain ) but probably not much since this cruise will be overflowing with a plethora of All-Star scopers from the Royal Caribbean Periscopers social media group (no, not Myspace). So if you’re in a bind this weekend and in desperate need of some highly entertaining and informative scopes from a pint-sized no frills geriatric 25-year-old cruise ship, block me but make sure you follow @CruiseLifeRick, @KCJarvis, @NickVitani and about 26,428 others who will be skipping around and crashing into each other with their iPhone12’s parked in front of their faces to document every second and cover every rusty inch of the ship.

CruiseLifeRick Posted February 1, 2017 #2 Share Posted February 1, 2017 I just hope an attractive girl takes pity on me for having to take care of my "special" friends. Hey York, what are the plans for the end of that joystick? Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geduffer Posted February 1, 2017 #3 Share Posted February 1, 2017 I don't see the point in going through all that for less than a 7 day cruise. My wife won't go longer (yet). I'll convince her the same way that I made a Yankee fan out of her. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll convince her the same way that I made a Yankee fan out of her. Besides the cruise I get the spend the day on Thursday with my mother in Melbourne, FL. So overall it's a pretty productive trip. And thank you for making your wife a Yankees fan. Hopefully you are both Islanders fans as well. Edited February 1, 2017 by Yorkvillain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkvillain Posted February 1, 2017 Author #6 Share Posted February 1, 2017 With several Oasis, Quantum, Freedom and Voyager class cruises under our belts, we decided it was finally time to turn back the clock and get crazy in 2016 by sampling the Vision class for the first time (spoiler - LOOOVED IT!). So after handing in our Vision Virginity cards, we decided to keep that downward spiral going in 2017 by experimenting with the Sovereign class for the very first time. At this regression rate our cruises in 2022 will probably be on an amusement park log flume ride.

Yorkvillain Posted February 1, 2017 Author #7 Share Posted February 1, 2017 The dirty dozen of periscopers. Check out the hot guy in the middle in the hockey jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkvillain Posted February 1, 2017 Author #8 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Next month we will be on the Navigator for 9 nights for a Southern Caribbean ABC islands cruise. So I guess this Nassau/Cococay trip should be dubbed the NC islands cruise? That might be a little confusing. Some might conclude that we are cruising to the Tarheel state. Does the CN islands cruise flow off the tongue a little better? I don't know. Your call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare A&L_Ont Posted February 1, 2017 #9 Share Posted February 1, 2017 (edited) This review will be more exciting than game on Sunday.:D ;) Edit: I do hope the game will be good, but I won't hold my breath.

OTownNick Posted February 1, 2017 #10 Share Posted February 1, 2017 The dirty dozen of periscopers. Check out the hot guy in the middle in the hockey jersey. Tim , you're brave!! At least it's only 3 nights so you won't have a lot of writing to do! I have a small circle on the bottom... I'm just a warmup performer (Periscopers) I guess lol. This will be one epic cruise and I hope it goes smoothly for everyone. Make sure to come on MY walking tour of Nassau. Also we have a list of "events and activities" planned for anyone who wants to join us. It all starts Friday at 9:00 AM at Grills Restaurant right next to the ship!! @NickVitani on Periscope Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm usually wrong when I make predictions but I actually think it's going to be a great game. Brady, Belichick and company get their 5th ring. 30-24 Pats. Actually, Belichick gets his SEVENTH ring! Two titles as Giants Defensive Coordinator. [emoji3] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkvillain Posted February 2, 2017 Author #25 Share Posted February 2, 2017 (edited) I just had one of the top ten worst breakfasts of my life at the airport. It wasn't worthy of food porn. [emoji107] If there was a gym at the airport I would change to a later flight so I could work off the lard I just injected into my body.
