I am an early riser and enjoy sitting on the balcony and watching the sun rise while everyone else sleeps. It is also nice to sit on the balcony and enjoy a glass of wine before bed.

 

63galaxie I like your idea about the fan. Last cruise we had smokers on both sides and below us,:eek: might as well not have had a balcony.

Thanks for bring back the tread to what the OP meant- for all of you who want the thread to be x rated-there is already one in the Floataway Lounge for you.

I am 53 years old and hav e been married 25 years and I am sure I know more tricks then you do-since I was "doing it" when you were in diapers. I have no need or interest in your porn site

 

Oh, mom, lighten up. lol This topic of conversation hardly makes this a "porn site." As careful as everyone is being to use polite words and oblique references it doesn't even make it an "R-rated" site. PG maybe. And, besides, why single me out? I didn't start this line of "balcony intimacy" posts! I'd actually be too afraid to be seen in the reflection of the glass or by kids next door peeking through the space. But then again I didn't mean to offend you either. In any case, you can have the thread back if it means that much to you, and I apologize if I offended your sensitivities.

 

By the way, mom, I'm 57 and got married when I was 20 so it's not likely you know a lot more tricks than me. Come to think of it, you weren't even around when I was in diapers. :-)

 

Oh, and I agree about the smoke drifting next door too. I can't complain though since I guess I annoyed people that way when I used to smoke. What goes around comes around I suppose. (Oops...sorry, I shouldn't have used the "c" word here.)

I did not say this was a pron site I said I was not interested in YOUR porn.

 

I assumed form your posts you were a kid because you came off sounding like a kid. That is all.

No-only if you offer to send me pictures if I e-mail you. That is what offended me about that other post-he said he would send me pictures so I would know how to have sex standing.

 

You know, if you want to have sex on your balcony I could care less. Just realize you may be seen-and If I snicker and can't keep a staright face when I run into you around ship you will know why.

 

As far as smoking on the balcony-that does not bother me. thankyou for smoking there instead of ging into an ensclosed restroom to smoke-now that bothers me as there is no place for the smoke leave.

we always order a bottle of champagne to be in the room for sailaway and sip that on the balcony while watching the ship leave port and toast the beginning of our vacation.

 

Anything else we do out there is our own business and not to be shared internet wide. :p :D

jeeez i hope your joking also ...cause i'm sure everyone realizes this is all in good fun... I don't feel anyone has been x-rated with our comments... I held back from a few funny things I could have said and i'm sure glad i did... If your upset about the .."send me your email " comment you might have had me banned from cruisecritic and possibly a few of the cruiselines as well...:eek: live .. laugh... love...

He wasn't joking he really does have his e-mail posted if you click on his profile. but no I will not be e-mailing him. Somehow I don't think my hubby would appreciate it- I doubt his wife would either- my guess she has had to deal with this already - poor woman-but at least she has no worries from me.

Yes, coffee in the AMs on the balcony!!! And most always, the doors stay open at night so we can listen to the waves!!

 

I love both of those things! We also loved being in the middle of the Atlantic an dout on our balcony last Sept. We saw nothing but water for days!

The one and only time we had a balcony, I caught my next door balcony neighbors. I had fallen asleep out there, and around 1 am, I wake up and happen t see my neighbors going at it. The entire rest of the cruise, they would turn beet red whenever they saw me.

Hubby and I order room service breakfast of danish and coffee, enjoy it on the balcony and watch the sunrise. Then we go to the dining room and have a real breakfast!! mmmmm Also, the balcony is a good place for hubby to enjoy his cubans he buys in the ports as we watch all the last minute people running to get back on the ship!:eek:

Wow! It amazes me to think that there are some people that just can't take a little sex talk. And I'm 55 by the way and female. It's really too bad. Oh, well. But, my next cruise in June will be our first with a balcony and I never hesitated in thinking what we would be trying out on our balcony. It's just another club to join, those of you mile higher's will know what I'm talking about........lol! And, I'm not apologizing to anybody. If you look onto some else's balcony, then you should expect to be seeing something. Believe me, you may turn red upon seeing me, but I'll just stand tall and proud and thanking God that I'm still able to enjoy it!

I have no problem with sex talk-I just want others to know they could possibly be seen -some people want that to be private-they do not want to be exhibitionists-and first time crusiers may not be aware that blaconies are not really private-that is all-and no-I don't go out on my balcony looking- and if I did accidently see something-I would turn away-not because I am ashamed or embarrased-I just think peeping would not be polite.

 

The only time I was embarassed looking out on my balcony is when I stretched out looking over the open sea early one moerning and my next door neighbor was doing the same-we both laughed and we BOTH were embarrassed-neither of us were spying on the other. I had no idea he was out there-and I am sure he had not idea I was either.

 

BTW guys if you can spring for a penthouse on HAL you get a hot tub on your balcony.

Having a balcony is the only way to cruise. I absolutely love sitting out there in the morning with my coffee and watching the birds dive in and out of the water. I wanted to sleep out there once but my husband wouldn't let me.
