My cousin promptly ordered the surf and turf and a burger bc he wanted to put lobster and shrimp on a burger.

I was so proud - no one brought Tupperware! Probably bc of the 24 hour pizza joint and the 24 hour ice cream machine.

fuck you.

Kinda geeked & kinda hesitant.

Geeked cuz I need a vacation & never been to the Bahamas & hesitant cuz I know I'm gonna get bored bein on a ga damn ship wit nowhere to go.

Stopped at Catalina island to snorkle and check out the island for a few hours in between


I remember realizing just how big the damn ship really was because we had to dock way out and take smaller boats to shore lol


Baja California was beautiful. Too many sharks in the water for me to surf tho. . I'm good


The cruise itself was cool. Lots of couples but enough singles to get it in too


Looking back I would have tried to sneak liquor on because they butt rape you in the drink prices.

it was mad old people. I'm talking like 85% of the boat had canes, walkers, or wheelchairs. Mind you the group we went with was about 65 people so pretty much every one else was old, wrinkled and white lol.

The 2nd was on CArnival and it was much better. Party boat, plus there was a few carolina panthers on the boat as well. They had some of the most tall and beautiful women with them that i ever seen.

We are going on a Hawaiian cruise in October.

2nd time. The first was a gift from family - I went with a crew of cousins and LOVED IT. I was very cynical going in but I was all in after I finished my first drink b4 the ship left Miami. 7 days of pampering and entertainment. I only did what I wanted and nothing I didn't want. For 7 days. Hell yeah I'm going again.

fuck you.

Flew to Venice, did two nights there, then we cruised from Venice to Montenegro, Santorini, Athens, Olympia, and back to Venice over the course of 7 nights. Then we took a train to Milan and did two nights there before heading home.

It's up there with our honeymoon for best vacation ever.

my wife has a friend who is on one right now and she said she wasn't going to drink.

That's how they get you.

around $50 a day per person and everyone in your room has to do it. And they put a cap on the number of drinks per day but i think its around 15.

is liquor expensive? can you bring bottles in board?

not as much as hotel bar liquor. not as cheap as a dive bar though.

the reasonable pricing encouraged me to buy more than i would've if it'd been more expensive.

fuck you.

-The Knicks’ coaching search still includes a lone frontrunner, Kurt Rambis, whose qualifications for the position include a strong relationship with Jackson and a willingness to take the job.

i drank beer primarily and when i had mixed drinks i didn't have complaints about them.

fuck you.

on the 1st night. That's the only place i'm buying from the bar throughout the trip. Rest of the time on the boat, i'm carrying around my coke bottle.

I'll buy beer tho.

A year and a half ago, went out of Orlando to the Bahamas and the Royal Caribbean private island, Coco Key.

We went snorkeling (a first for me). My hubby was teasing me because I kept swimming in circles. We swam with the stingrays. They rubbed on you like kittens. And, we went to Atlantis and chilled for a day.

Those pineapple drinks were the best!!! We had a wonderful time. The best is that we got to unplug. No phones (not really), no computers, just us. And, it was perfect.

Next year, my 20 year high school class reunion is going on a 5 day cruise out of Miami on Carnival. We are supposed to be going to Grand Turk and a couple other places. We've already paid some on it. I'm excited and looking forward to going. I think my hubby and I are going to have a great time.

In the xray machine, they cant really distinguish it from any other bottle of liquid like shampoo or body wash.

arm & leg for water & juice.

they don't price gauge for much of anything...b/c they want you to buy more stuff.

fuck you.

they let you keep the liquor you buy when you get off at your ports of call
the lines for the soda fountains were like the lines to get into the club, people with cups of ice and drank on trays STACKED.

here for dis.

unless the cruise specifies adults only
I went as part of a family reunion and we got it the fk IN every night on the upper decks.
No problems whatsoever.

here for dis.

princess had some kids. I would think that the majority of people that go on disney have kids, but i've never actually known anyone that has tho

thankfully the rear half of the boat was adults-only. i spent most of my time there.

fuck you.

-The Knicks’ coaching search still includes a lone frontrunner, Kurt Rambis, whose qualifications for the position include a strong relationship with Jackson and a willingness to take the job.

my next cruise is w/Royal Caribbean. i hope there'll be fewer kids but if not i'll be fine. b/c the ship is fucking massive. i can avoid kids if i want. lol

fuck you.

I don't know if it's that I haven't cruised in three years
But that ship was turned up!
The entire time it was a nonstop party

It was so much fun!

The relaxation of a cruise is so lovely. Especially when you have a nice suite and sleep with your door to the balcony open and listen to the water. I can't wait to go on another.

the Caribbean ones seem like ratchet magnets
i'm also not too big on having a couple of hours to explore the touristy area of some port
at least not in the caribbean where i could easily either stay on a resort or cop an airbnb if i want to experience local life

~~~~~~

Shit, I payed for the Caribbean joint smh.

What happens if you don't make it to the boat on time?

Some cruises stay overnight.
>
>What happens if you don't make it to the boat on time?

You are assed out. Hope you can join them at the next port lol

-The Knicks’ coaching search still includes a lone frontrunner, Kurt Rambis, whose qualifications for the position include a strong relationship with Jackson and a willingness to take the job.

f them tourist traps lol

I like it as a sampler of places i'd want to visit on my own.

-The Knicks’ coaching search still includes a lone frontrunner, Kurt Rambis, whose qualifications for the position include a strong relationship with Jackson and a willingness to take the job.

Jamaica? no. Grand Cayman? hellz yeah. Cozumel (Mexico)? no.

fuck you.

most time is spent on the ship. most entertainment is on the ship.

the ship is the point.

fuck you.

fuck you.

but then again its the 1st day.

I don't always look forward to getting off the boat.

-The Knicks’ coaching search still includes a lone frontrunner, Kurt Rambis, whose qualifications for the position include a strong relationship with Jackson and a willingness to take the job.

i had a fucking ball that first day at sea. all of the sea days were my favorites.

fuck you.

got a couple of dollars back lol

-------------------
I wanna go to where the martyrs went
the brown figures on the walls of my apart-a-ment...

and i didn't have to come back and lay in a full size bed when i was done
if the boat is the main selling point then i'm not interested.

~~~~~~

i wasn't at all interested in going on the first cruise. i only went b/c the ticket was a gift from family and i didn't want to be rude. i fully expected to be bored and to hate it. i kinda went w/a chip on my shoulder.

the chip was gone by the time the ship left Miami. LOL

i dunno who could go on a cruise and not have a good time. but i'm sure it's possible. if one were determined to not enjoy it that could be done. of course if the ship itself has some drama (malfunctioning equipment, capsizing, et al) that would be a buzzkill. or i imagine if one suffered from seasickness or some other ailment that could ruin the cruise. but otherwise i think one would have to work hard to have a bad time on a cruise.

fuck you.

-The Knicks’ coaching search still includes a lone frontrunner, Kurt Rambis, whose qualifications for the position include a strong relationship with Jackson and a willingness to take the job.

Bruh we was running threes all day lol

First time i went on one, we was playing ball on the first day with this scrappy white dude...like matthew delevedova just not as reckless. Anwyway dude is by himself running up court and just falls and grabs his ankles.

We thought it was funny at first bc ain't nobody was near him, but he was the only dude going hard, like we were joking he was gonna overboard diving for a loose ball or something.

Later we see him in Jamaica, getting pushed around in a wheelchair looking sad as shit.

Karma got me cause i ruptured my achillies a few years later.

I was on dry land tho.

I aint playing ball on a ship no more.

If i ever do play it'll be the last day.

-The Knicks’ coaching search still includes a lone frontrunner, Kurt Rambis, whose qualifications for the position include a strong relationship with Jackson and a willingness to take the job.

The last time it was just our group of 4 at our table.

-The Knicks’ coaching search still includes a lone frontrunner, Kurt Rambis, whose qualifications for the position include a strong relationship with Jackson and a willingness to take the job.

we had our own table at dinner.

hell, we didn't have to go to dinner if we didn't want.

fuck you.

>hell, we didn't have to go to dinner if we didn't want.

the only thing i *had* to do was attend the safety lecture on the first day. they identified my life boat and showed me how to reach it.

after that i was free to do whatever i wanted until the ship docked in Miami and they put me off.

fuck you.

Assuming you getting one of the basic ones(which i always do)

I try to spend as little time as possible in the room. Plus the bathroom starts to smell like piss after a couple of days lol

-The Knicks’ coaching search still includes a lone frontrunner, Kurt Rambis, whose qualifications for the position include a strong relationship with Jackson and a willingness to take the job.

i'm roomming w/a cousin this time and he was fine w/an interior room. i insisted on a room w/an ocean view and a balcony. i can't imagine being on a ship and not being able to chill in my room. i saw one of the interior rooms and i was NOT about that life.

fuck you.

it would probably help with sea sicknesses since it was my 1st time. It definitely was nice and better but we don't need it bc we hardly spend that much time in the room.

If you do chill in your room, i'd def understand getting the better rooms.

-The Knicks’ coaching search still includes a lone frontrunner, Kurt Rambis, whose qualifications for the position include a strong relationship with Jackson and a willingness to take the job.

when i was tired of seeing ppl all over the ship - it was a party ship, indeed. i like some private time to chill w/my thoughts. and if my roommie was in the room at the time i could go chill on the balcony.

fuck you.

Man, fuck! And knowing me, I'd be in my room sleeping in after lookin at water all ga damn day gets old

stations.

At this point, I wouldn't be surprised if cruises had a pay wifi option.

-The Knicks’ coaching search still includes a lone frontrunner, Kurt Rambis, whose qualifications for the position include a strong relationship with Jackson and a willingness to take the job.

a cruise ship is not a ferry boat.

it's a floating resort hotel. w/a shopping mall, theaters, and a casino. w/multiple bars and clubs and restaurants. and swimming pools and hot tubs. and spas. and saunas. and gyms. basketball courts. boxing rings...

there's so much activity - if you're bored it's b/c you choose to be bored but not b/c there's nothing to do except stare at water. of course, if you want to stare at water you can do that.

fuck you.

I hate water and boats so i didn't get it. My wife was like its a huge building, you'll forget you are even on a boat.

I wasn't buying it. I'm like i see cruise ships on the water while we on the highway(obviously from a distance). its a damn boat

When we first got close to it, i was like oh my. Day time you barely can tell that you are on a boat. Sometimes at night you can tell, or if the ship is making up for a lost time.

-The Knicks’ coaching search still includes a lone frontrunner, Kurt Rambis, whose qualifications for the position include a strong relationship with Jackson and a willingness to take the job.

we had choppy water one afternoon. the boat rocked - that's the only time i knew i was on a boat. lol

fuck you.

eating all day.

I really gotta look on that site again, like I said above I don't even know the ship.

read up on the amenities. you might be pleasantly surprised.

fuck you.

I have good memories of it. I think you really have to be going for the actual cruise part, because you really only get the tourist cliff notes of the destination.

I would be open to doing one again now, but I think not living near a port kind of kills it unless you can get a really cheap flight.

My bud and I deal-hunted for a few weeks and got a 4-day cruise for $194 each (that's after fees. The base rate they show on the web page was $105). It was the weekend of the Super Bowl so it was a SB party on the boat. Really fun. My first cruise. Took me about a day to adjust to being trapped on a boat, after that it was a blast. I really want to go back to Mexico now.
