Someone or some people decided to take this "find a duck" obsession to the next stage and hid creepy little naked babies around the ship. 

They must be laughing endlessly at the excitement it generated when people found them. 

 

It's NOT a thing....

 

Anyone else found them? Picture added for authenticity. If I'd found any, I would have run the other way.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

First, the ducks.

Next, the naked mohawk-baby carrot jockeys.

 

(oh dear, I am really dating myself with that reference, aren't I?)

There’s an Irish tradition for halloweeen that involves baking things into a cake.. ring = you’ll get married, pea = you won’t marry in the coming year, coin = you’ll be rich, stick = unhappy marriage, rag = poor . It’s a Barmbrack, cake or bread is in the eye of the beholder, it’s a fruit loaf that isn’t quite as sweet as a cake but is definitely sweeter than most bread.  I don’t think anyone’s going to start hiding all of those items around a cruise ship. 

I remember my grandmother talking about that, but I’d forgotten it until now.  I’ve been to weddings where charms are baked into the cake and have a ribbon attached.  Several young women are chosen to pull a charm.  Can’t remember what they were but cute little things.
