Well what can I say but the Troublemakers rocked the high seas! This was an 8 day cruise to St. Thomas, PR, Antigua, Tortola & Nassau. We had great weather this week as it was chilly last week, (I was on a cruise the week before).

Day one... We all met up on the aft deck for a sail away party! There must have been 70 Black shirt wearing Troublemakers up there! What a sail-a-way party it was! Lots of good time had & plenty of booze was a flowing!

The next day was a sea day & Superbowl Sunday! Alot of us hung out on Lido Deck soaking up the booze I mean sun & getting a sopt infront of the wide screen on the ship! This was Formal night & I missed it to watch the superbowl game on the lido deck. Now remember I had just done a week before & went to all the diners....lol. I was selling hats (Patroits) for buckets of beer or a rasberry drinkie for the wife. Oh yea she sat there & watched it too!!! My team lost & I gave my bottle of Champagine to a fan of the Giants. I then proceeded to go off & drown my sorrows at the bars....lol

I ended up finding one of the crew & we shut down the bars. The next day was PR & we did not get in till 5pm so it was like a sea day again....lol Well we got a bit loud & security was called...opps... Sorry folks....

First port of call PR.... I was here just the week before & had done the segway tour of the forts & just had to do it again! This time a bunch of the group went to do it. It was evening so the forts were closed but what a way to see PR! I finished my tour & had to go back to the ship to get my other glasses as the sun was fully gone now. A bunch went out to Senior Frogs & had a blast. I was a bit boozed out so I did not go.

The next day was St. Thomas! I took my family on the Coral World excursion. This was awesome & I only wish we could have spent more time here! Then it was off to Megan's Bay for a bit of swimming! What a great beach! We spent an hour & 1/2 swimming there. Then we took off for a bit of sight seeing! Great views from the top of St. Thomas!!!!

Next day was Antiqua!!! We did a CAT snorkle & private beach excursion... Wow I would do this again in a heart beat! It was so beatiful there!!! Oh yea they gave you free rum punch on the way after snorkeling... They forgot to tell you it was 151 rum punch....OMG... Well needless to say everyone was feeling no pain when we made it back to the dock.....lol This little rum experence flowed into the evening & I got a bit snockered that night. Well the next day was Tortula & I did not make it off the ship as I slept in that day. It was ok though as the ship was empty & I had free roam of the ship.... You have just got to experence a port day on the ship!

Got to run I'll post more later!
