BoPippy Posted April 6, 2009 #1 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Haven't sailed out of the carribbean for awhile and wondering if they still give out paper streamers to throw when the ship is departing?I remember doing this before in either Ft.Lauderdale or San Juan.This time leaving out of Barbados.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I would not suggest bringing them with you. They blow over the side and liter up the waterway. Try bubbles, they are more eco friendly. ;) The only time I have seen streamers was on island night several times some years ago. They actually had to hang nets over the top of the outside deck to catch the streamers before going over the edge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rjack22 Posted April 6, 2009 #5 Share Posted April 6, 2009 You see them throwing streamers and confetti on episodes of The Love Boat (grin). No, they don't do it anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
