I enjoyed the slideshow. It looks like you had a great time and mom looked happy in all the pics. Hope she had a wonderful birthday. Loved the smoke stack hat - I haven't seen that one before.

Gymbrat, I really enjoyed reading your review, and to second the question asked before - do we get to see pics???

Ken, my heart goes out to your and your family. As a parent (and grandparent), I cannot even begin to imagine the anguish and helplessness you must have felt. I will pray that all of you recover emotionally from this traumatizing ordeal. Thank you for sharing - our next cruise is on the Conquest and after reading your accounting of the events, we are now considering staying on the ship when in Montego Bay. Please know that many prayers are being said for you and your loved ones.

Sue, I too, would not attach them until you arrived in Hawaii. We have never had electonic docs before but will this upcoming cruise. What I plan to do is print the tags on cardstock, then cover them with clear contact paper and punch a hole in them. Then I will run thin elastic, just like the cruise line uses, thru the hole and tie it. Mine should be more durable than the one's the cruise line sends.

On our first cruise, which was to the Bahamas, right by the ship, there was a guy diving down and bringing up these huge conch shells (I think that is what they are called). Then he would paint "Nassau Bahamas" on them. Our kids each wanted one, so we bought 2. When we got back on the ship, we saw several of them sitting on top of trash cans. When we got back to the room, we figured out why. Those things had the most awful stench. We tried washing them out, to no avail. So we got back off the ship and went to the closest store and bought bleach, which we poured into them and let them sit. Thank God, it did get rid of the mell. They truly smelled like something had died in there.

Brady, I know what you mean - I am trying to get my "fix" before the forum goes down.

Nancy, we didn't use any of the beaches in Nassau. On Paradise Island, we have mainly shopped and of course, had to take in the Atlantis Hotel. Sorry I can't give you any info about the beaches but I am sure someone here can.

Charlie, may all your days at sea be smooth and filled with sun and fun and may all your days in port be adventurous. Anchors aweigh……
