Too many people. Most of them fat. Not that fat is a bad thing, I just don't want to be behind them. Or next to them. Or in front...never mind. Happy Mother's Day to Mrs. C.

The first, a Carnival Line was not my cuppa at all, the last, in October, was on Regency Lines, which is a bit different, with no extra costs of any kind, and includes airfare. <br />Glad you're ok. <br />Cheers,<br />Mike<br />Should Fish Morehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13038376492887695725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-968059214758329257.post-21241364096890658212016-05-08T21:27:09.559-04:002016-05-08T21:27:09.559-04:00Thank goodness you're okay.

They say the food is great on cruise ships, so not surprising there's a certain amount of paunch. <br /><br />When you turn 71 you only need to do 66 push-ups, because you've got credit in the push-up bank.Kerryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15281288495129054688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-968059214758329257.post-21207826680846646682016-05-08T19:52:22.697-04:002016-05-08T19:52:22.697-04:00I've been on several cruises and your descript...I've been on several cruises and your descriptions of these old dudes are spit on, although seventy is sounding younger all the time.stephen Hayeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17659054447637207734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-968059214758329257.post-23669179152759227532016-05-08T18:57:27.172-04:002016-05-08T18:57:27.172-04:00Happy birthday, Cranky.

I love people watching and always make up stories about the people I observe. Airports are great places for doing this: He is on his way to a job interview, she is getting on a flight to meet her boyfriend, he is here to pick up his Russian mail order bride, she is a secret agent on a mission... What kind of stories could you make up about old fat people on a cruise?Pixel Peeperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17553862902461169270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-968059214758329257.post-2223936266069970862016-05-08T16:24:46.183-04:002016-05-08T16:24:46.183-04:00If i ever get to cruise again, i'll try to avo...If i ever get to cruise again, i'll try to avoid either being annoying or hanging with anyone who is!messymimihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10649529601786689712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-968059214758329257.post-67415072963291178362016-05-08T14:53:17.995-04:002016-05-08T14:53:17.995-04:00I LOVE cruises but I always eat too much!!I LOVE cruises but I always eat too much!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-968059214758329257.post-92227428969863308222016-05-08T14:04:49.522-04:002016-05-08T14:04:49.522-04:00Happy Birthday Whipper

She said it was quite casual all day. That<br />was my favorite part, wearing all the rhinestones and sparkles.
