AFK for a few days

[brian]

I'm going on a cruise (my first!) for the next week. I'll be in Curacao and Aruba and probably won't have the means (or the desire) to be online.

Behave yourselves.

SO, what can we get into this week?

[lswot]

I'm sure you'll think of something!

[lswot]

Have fun, Brian. Sounds like good trip.......R&R!

I hear they have Conga lines on cruise ships. Better start practicing.

I sure hope Brian winds up aboard a better cruise ship then the one being towed <verrry slooowley> back to the US with no plumbing, AC, food etc. I imagine some of them folks are gonna be a bit testy about the entire situation.

Well.....there is that possibility. According to the cruise line.....it's not as bad as reported.....however......the passengers don't agree with that statement.

I'm back!

And I was not on the cruise ship from hell.

Mine was most excellent.

Glad to hear that.

[lswot]

Welcome back.....and I'm happy you weren't on that 'other' ship.

Great pictures.
Looks like you had a great time.....and had great weather.

[brian]

I did, on both counts.

It was clouding up as we left Ft. Lauderdale (you can see that in the first couple of pictures), so we left there just in time. In Curacao, a 10-minute monsoon hit, just after we got to the (covered) Carnival parade viewing area. But fortunately we were under cover for it, and the rest of the week was perfect.
