Gone Again! (NOT a deal - for YOU!)

Heads up!

Beginning this Friday until Feb. 7th I will be AWOL again!

I'm leaving Thursday night for Miami (where I have never been) , where I'll be hopping on Royal Caribbean's Grandeur of the Seas on Friday for 
a 9 Day Southern Caribbean Cruise to the following destinations:

FRI 27 JAN - MIAMI, FLORIDA Departure at 3:30 PM
SAT 28 JAN - CRUISING 
SUN 29 JAN  - CRUISING
MON 30 JAN - PHILIPSBURG, ST. MAARTEN 
TUE 31 JAN - ST. CROIX, U.S.V.I. 
WED 01 FEB - SAN JUAN, PUERTO RICO
THU 02 FEB - PUERTO PLATA, DOMINICAN REPUBLIC
FRI 03 FEB - LABADEE, HAITI (Cruise Line Private Destination)
SAT 04 FEB - CRUISING
SUN 05 FEB - MIAMI, FLORIDA arrival at 7:00 AM

After arriving back in Miami I have a 5 hour Bus tour at 9 AM of Miami which will drop me off at 
Miami International Airport afterwards for my flight back to Detroit Sunday night.  I'll have a 6 hr layover
in Atlanta Sunday night on the way back to Detroit, arriving back in Detroit on Monday Morning!
That puts me back at it on Tuesday the 7th (barring incident!)

( I'm secretly training "someone" who has the tenacity to take over when I croak! LOL)

You did get the Free WiFi & drinks deal when you booked the cruise, didn't you?

Toasting yourself on a hammock next to the pool can get boring, nothing better than browsing deals on a tablet while sipping margaritas and pina coladas

(and after the cruise the tablet will be useful as a nice eucon controller)

Just kidding, WiFi on a cruise ship is generally lousy, just enjoy a wonderful and relaxing trip!

I don't drink very much and the drink packages are crazy priced, but I did get
Wi-Fi so I can stay in touch with my brother and niece!

Drink package was $600! I couldn't drink that much if my life depended on it...and besides,
I'd like to remember the trip...LOL!

Whenever I read about destinations in the Caribbean it reminds me of playing the game "Sid Meier's Pirates!" on the Commodore Amiga back in 1991 while listening to Beastie Boys' License to Ill album, which was oddly fitting for a cartoonish adventure pillaging in the New World. That's the only time I've "visited" places like San Juan and St Martin. It'd be nice to visit for real one day. 

Larry, I hope you have a great trip and manage to steer clear of any privateers and buccaneers on the high seas!
