tinlizzy Posted August 3, 2007 #1 Share Posted August 3, 2007 Someone didn't explain the concept quite right to the hotel staff in this Luxor Egypt hotel Animals...not towel people.

JesJ Posted August 3, 2007 #6 Share Posted August 3, 2007 I am confused about this thread, what does a hotel room in egypt have to do with cruises?? Maybe it's my blondness, or maybe the fact that in 50 days my hubby and I will be on our anniversary having a few drinks, relaxing and having fun!!!

Maybe it's my blondness, or maybe the fact that in 50 days my hubby and I will be on our anniversary having a few drinks, relaxing and having fun!!! that's what I was wondering also. But I think this person saw a review about a hotel in Luxor where they made scary towel people. Look at the picture above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brcris75 Posted August 3, 2007 #8 Share Posted August 3, 2007 I'm probably the dumb blonde here and have it all wrong, but my take on what the OP meant was "how would you like to see one of these on the bed in your cabin instead of the custmary cute little animal". I personally would have been heard all over the ship had I walked in and saw that sitting in my cabin (thinking a real person was sitting there)!

I personally would have been heard all over the ship had I walked in and saw that sitting in my cabin (thinking a real person was sitting there)! yeah I would have been complaining quite loudly also. But I doubt we will see anything like that on a cruiseship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally would have been heard all over the ship had I walked in and saw that sitting in my cabin (thinking a real person was sitting there)! Yeah that was my take too - the OP was comparing the towels animals we see on cruise ships to that towel person. Made perfect sense to me....

rcclfanatic Posted August 3, 2007 #11 Share Posted August 3, 2007 The topic was obvious to me as well. I would have loved to see the look on my GF face on our last cruise if we were to walk into that. I wouldn't complain though, the house cleaner was obviously being funny. Plus we don't know what they left for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valentine's Mom Posted August 3, 2007 #12 Share Posted August 3, 2007 We have had towel people made on a couple of our cruises. On on RCCL was in my bed with my nightgown and sunglasses and holding a rose. The other was sitting on the toilet holding a newspaper! Talking about scaring a person!:eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

celticd1 Posted August 3, 2007 #14 Share Posted August 3, 2007 I made a towel person for our room steward on our last cruise! He loved it, caught me in the hall and gave me a big hug after he saw it! :p He couldn't stop laughing, it was great. Now, the one from Egypt....that would be scary! :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hstrybuf Posted August 3, 2007 #15 Share Posted August 3, 2007 I've heard of cruisers coming back to their cabins and finding towel people instead of towel animals. Sure would give you a scare at first! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knights on the Beach Posted August 3, 2007 #16 Share Posted August 3, 2007 Yeah that was my take too - the OP was comparing the towels animals we see on cruise ships to that towel person. Made perfect sense to me....And to me. That is one scary towel creature. :p Celticd1, what a great idea! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinlizzy Posted August 3, 2007 Author #17 Share Posted August 3, 2007 Thanks to all who clarified my post. I thought the people who would get how wrong that picture is would be cruisers who are used to adorable towel animals. Just a silly post that's all.

HookedOnCruisin'2 Posted August 3, 2007 #19 Share Posted August 3, 2007 What a riot! A great idea about making one for the steward too. Maybe I'll do one holding his/her extra tips.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jessemon Posted August 4, 2007 #20 Share Posted August 4, 2007 Besides the fact people are saying "I don't get it".... I would pay money to have a Carnival cabin steward to do this to someone I know. I am still ROFLMFAO...... "BOO"......:p :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeeBee1022 Posted August 4, 2007 #22 Share Posted August 4, 2007 Okay the fact that someone touched YOUR nightgown totally grosses me out! It's the same person that touches your sheets and towels. How is touching the nightgown grosser than that? Also, I love the idea of making a towel person for the steward! I think most of them would get a real kick out of that. I can tell there are some people on this thread that wouldn't get it, but I think that is their loss! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pischina Posted August 4, 2007 #23 Share Posted August 4, 2007 I think the idea of making a towel person holding the extra tip is very cute. I'm definitely doing that next week! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
