Hurricane Cruise

Country Count: 46

Well, we survived or cruise during Hurricane Sandy. We changed our itinerary five times and almost had to disembark all the guests four days early but lucky for us she took a turn to the west and didn't end up raining on our parade. Unfortunately we didn't get to see Bermuda and it must not be in good shape because we aren't going to make it there this cruise either. The hurricane also gave everyone an opportunity to show their true colors in the face of an emergency. Now many guests were very nice and reasonable but then there was everyone else. I have now been called stupid, a liar and I'm pretty sure I heard a "useless" in there. Even when we weren't in any stressful situations people seemed upset to be on vacation. After a game of brain teasers I asked, "How do you all know this stuff?" To which one lovely gentleman replied, "Because we're not singers and dancers." I bit my tongue although I have to be honest my feelings were hurt. I got my revenge the next time by asking only Broadway trivia. Bite me.
This cruise was also our Halloween party where approximately 4 people dressed up and that would be the four entertainment staff. Very festive this group. We had fun anyway and Ethan even covered himself entirely in green paint (except for his butt which he showed us to prove it) to be The Hulk and he looked awesome!
Now we are on our way to the Caribbean and its just in time because as interesting as the Wal-mart in Cornerbrook is I have had just about enough. More to come from the jungle in the Amazon!

Getting in touch with the animals. Last year it was the elephants in Thailand. This year: A squirrel in Boston Common.
