    Chris, I thought the Honduras monkey story was the funniest thing in your TR until I read the nightstand comment, omg! We (yes, I was reading it out loud so Adam could hear about the cruise) were cracking up! Glad you landed safely and had an awesome time, really appreciate you sharing the pics and stories!

    Frank looked scary in those rocks.

    Glad you skipped Disney, you have strange eats there sometimes. And you already get plenty of wine.

    You would enjoy cruising Linda! Carol usually doesn't qualify for a comped cruise on her own, but when she combines her play with Lammie they generally do. A couple of times she has been pleasantly surprised that she qualified on her own. But she always gets at least the 20% off. Between introducing her to slots and cruising, I have created quite a monster!!

    clemi, I think you would really enjoy cruising. I mean wining & dining, slot machines and fun places to visit. What's not to like?

    There seems to be enough interest to get a good group of Jokers together for a cruise one of these days. Let's do it!

    I haven't been on a cruise in over ten years so it is especially interesting to read all your helpful info regarding the NCL Getaway. My family and I were supposed to go on a Norwegian cruise this past summer to the Bahamas, but with Keith not fully recovered yet, we thought it best to put it off till next summer when he should hopefully be feeling more like his old self by then. So it's been especially enjoyable for me to read all about your cruise vacation...you give such awesome and specific details about everything.

    And I love how you vacation...lots of relaxing, eating and drinking, lol. That's my kind of vacation

    Now that you have Keith strong & healthy again you should definitely consider taking a cruise. Either the Getaway or the Breakaway would be great for a family cruise, and the Breakaway sails from NYC so no flying hassles. And I am all about not flying for awhile - HHH!

I think the only way I could get Troy to go on a cruise if there is a smoking section. We should consider having Joker's Cruisin M&G.
    YES to a Joker's cruise It would be amazing!

    Reading this has got me in the cruising mood again!

    I've been on over 40 cruises but my last was back in 2009, an 11 day Panama Canal cruise on HAL. Always enjoyed sipping cocktails on our Veranda each night and looking at the stars and the waves.
    We need to get your ass back on a ship. I bet Sharon would be up for it!

    I love how you live each trip to the fullest!! Good thing you have a couple of weeks to recover before Coushatta!

    Thanks again!

    PS - now I understand about the puking on the plane comment you made on another thread.
    SCARY!!! Glad you are safe!
    Thanks Sassy! The cruise was fantastic but the memory of that flight will last awhile. Not looking forward to my next flight even though it is to see my boy and my Jokers!

    I wanted to wait for the whole TR to be done before reading it and OMG Chris it was worth the wait. You seriously crack me up when I read your posts. Not sure I'll ever convince DH to cruise but you make it look amazing. Can't wait to see your crazy ass in 2 weeks!

    Chris, thanks for an awesome report. It makes cruising sound so much fun. I have a weak stomach and am afraid of going on a cruise, although I'm told that movement is fairly minimal in those big ships. Your report so made me want to cruise.

    You really have a wonderful writing style and had me in stitches with some of your description. Glad you survived that landing, and I want to know what's in that nigh stand. Congratulations on an excellent gambling adventurous trip.
