AFK for a few days

Post by brian » Fri Feb 08, 2013 7:06 am

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. :D

Behave yourselves. :nano:

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. :flame:

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. :huh:

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. :)
