We made it down to Soggy Dollar, and as usual, there was a line at the bar. Surprisingly, it took less time to get a drink here than the last place. Their very efficient like that. Like I said earlier, the painkillers here were good, but not great. At least not the one I had. There was nothing wrong with it, but at the same time, it didn't change my life.

A couple of pictures of the new Soggy Dollar. The original was blown away by the hurricane in 2017...

They're big supporters of the law enforcement community here, and people bring patches from their departments and put them on the ceiling...

I'm pretty happy with the premium plus beverage package... Even though it cost me a couple hundred extra dollars, it's nice to be able to get bottled water or fresh squeezed juice whenever I want. Of course, it's also nice to have all of my drinks made with premium brand liquor without having to worry about the expense... I can't tell you how many times that I have been at the bar ordering something, and the person next to me hears, and orders the same thing. Only, when they tell them it will be an additional charge, they just say "oh, no thanks"

Because every good thing must come to an end, I like to go ahead and get most of the packing done early on the last day... I use my patented (TM) method of getting a bunch of dirty laundry home without soiling my suitcase. I lay all of it neatly on a large plastic bag, like this...

Now, if you're really OCD like me, you then place the bundle inside another new garbage bag, and place it in your suitcase. You are now prepared to travel home without having to worry about your dirty underdrawers soiling your nice clean bag...

My mom got me this shirt for Christmas last year... It's sort of been my life's motto... Maybe if my motto had been "failure is not an option" or something along those lines, I would be more successful in life...

 

But, you know what I say: It is what it is...

They sent me an invitation to a little get together in the District Brew House, so I'm stopping by... Looks almost like the CC meet and greet, but it's by invitation only. They're serving hors d'oeuvre, but I'm not having any... I've avoided the cruise crud up until now, and I'm hoping to make it home without catching anything... I have to work tomorrow when I get home, and then Monday, it's right back to my full time job...

Well, I gave it one more shot with Jocel, the assistant general manager to try and get a peek into the Haven... With it being the final sea day, it's really busy in there, with people enjoying the final day of their vacation. She said that I could definitely come up early in the morning if I want, but you know how hectic debarkation day is... She said that she would help me out tomorrow morning getting off the ship asap for my 10:00 flight...

 

I guess I'm going to head up to Vibe and pound some drinks, and try to wrap this thing up in a nice little bow for you fine people...
