Rare KarmaCruisers Posted May 30 Author #226 Share Posted May 30 Just had a nice long chat with an older couple from Long Island (who’ve lived in Florida for 20 years) we talked about cruising mostly; they love it as much as I do. also Vincent made me another drink..I asked him to make me his choice…he makes me a Surfer on Acid; hahaha 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not gambling if you pretty much know the expected outcome. (As well as have the advantage) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare KarmaCruisers Posted May 30 Author #228 Share Posted May 30 (edited) Also believe me; it’s taking everything I’ve got in me to not go into the casino and start ripping hundreds to try to “win” that $700 back. this is why I’m debating getting another $2000 worth of gift cards; to help me quell the urge; while doing it at an “advantage” (in quotes because I THINK this will keep me getting free balconies) Edited May 30 by KarmaCruisers 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare KarmaCruisers Posted May 30 Author #229 Share Posted May 30 Also I shouldn’t be drinking this hooch because it’s just empty calories that my fat stomach doesn’t need..but I’ve done almost no elevators this cruise so I think I can have a drink or two. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is a critical part of the formula Expect them to be 90% as most dragon/lightning link are set there; but I think the MINIMUM they can be is 80% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare KarmaCruisers Posted May 31 Author #243 Share Posted May 31 Main course! the Rigatoni stuff was helllla good; I could have honestly ate more (but probably shouldn’t) 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare KarmaCruisers Posted May 31 Author #244 Share Posted May 31 Time for siesta. i honestly didn’t take an elevator today at all; so I think my drinking of: Mango305 Colorado BullDog Pirate Punch (aka: Surfer on Acid) Woodford Old Fashioned Blantons Old Fashioned Wasn’t TOO horrible (although I did eat dinner past my usual 9pm cutoff; but only by 30 minutes) 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare KarmaCruisers Posted May 31 Author #247 Share Posted May 31 Good morning Nassau! it’s actually a tad cool outside (I imagine it’ll warm up as the day goes on and also portside is in the shade of the boat) Got cleaned up and waiting in line for an omelette right now at Lido MarketPlace. i didn’t put sunblock on my face in Grant Turk and I definitely got a “guy fieri” tan (sunglasses area not tan at all, lol) so I’m going to put a little bit on my face today (I didn’t think I needed it because I have a giant rainforest type hat which also has a neck cover piece) 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare KarmaCruisers Posted May 31 Author #248 Share Posted May 31 Holy shoot this guy making the omelettes is like the slowest person in the world! He’s literally trying to make them to perfection! The guy in front of me said “it don’t matter; it’s going in my belly anyway” 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare KarmaCruisers Posted May 31 Author #250 Share Posted May 31 What a scam they’re running for drinks right at the gangway..you THINK they’d be included (water bottles and Gatorade) but the guy said they’re NOT (he writes them up manually) so I went up three flights to Java Blue and picked up the SAME bottle of Gatorade-Zero..for FREE. lol I bet they catch a LOT of people sleeping like that. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
