Spent the better part of this past week as their guest aboard the sovereign of the seas.

Nice tub. Fancier than my last cruise on another line, the US Navy. It was actually my first cruise as a paying customer.

Not as fancy as some of the latest super duper 3 mile long mega ships, but still purty nice. She is gonna get shipped off to the spics soon though (brazil, I think).

And all that fuggin food. It was basically a 4 day long all you can eat buffet. The buffet food was very plentiful and diverse, but, it was about a step up from ponderosa quality wise. Didn't stop me from putting on enough pounds to give mikey a run, though. The sit down dinners on the other hand were excellent. 4 star, imo.

We sailed out of port canaveral. Right down the swamp from Kennedy Space Center. Left monday afternoon, stopped in Nassau for a day, and coco cay which is RCCL's own little fantasy island for a day. Got back friday morning. Me and young smacko spent the day at the space center. That place kicks ass!!!!! Mrs smack and miss smack drove around, got lost, looked for alligators and bought shit.

We stayed in orlando last night and killed most of today searching for baby caylee. Alas, she is still missing. Prolly a gator turd by now. Flew back this evening.

Maybe I'll throw together some pics for you fukks. Yeah, right. I still haven't done a yellowstone PET.

As for cruising, if the OL and I do another, it'll be Alaska. Doubt we'd do another carribbean one. We have decided that it makes more sense to just fly to one of the islands and hang out there for a few days.

Wow. You catch on fast.

smac,

My 1st cruise was the same cruise (and ship). Mrs. TWIS and I figured we would see if we liked cruising and used that run as a test. Have cruised RC again and also Holland America. The Caribbean is diverse enough that cruising to several ports is enjoyable (imo) enough. I would definitely like to do an Alaskan cuise as well. I would suggest you try Holland (they do Alaska & especially if it is without the kid) as the food is a step (or 2) up with both the buffet and the dining room. Also a lot less high school and college brats running around the ship getting drunk and passing out.

you also really liked not having to tip

I don't tip because society says I have to. All right, if someone deserves a tip, if they really put forth an effort, I'll give them something a little something extra. But this tipping automatically, it's for the birds. As far as I'm concerned, they're just doing their job.

No idea what you're talking about here.

Can you go into further detail here please? Also, let us know of anything in a steam pan (stuffing, crab rangoon) that you may or may not have fondled like it was a woman's vagina. Thanks in advance.

^^^ Rack!

Timing was near perfect

Y'know, I shoulda went to the steam pan. It woulda been the only action I got during that four days. Unrack sleeping in a bread box with two chillins.

Ironic you started this thread as wifey and I were sailing out of SoCal toward the Mexican Riviera on the same day......

We used to sail with RCCL but switched to Carnival due to RCCL fucking up...Got back this a.m. and playing catchup....

Need to address the expansions done to the exterior torso in 7 days...
