Carnival - Day II

Nassau, Bahamas - What makes Nassau so special? Picture an idyllic place with stretches of perfect white-sand beaches, gracefully swaying coconut palms offering oases of shade, and warm, crystal-clear waters revealing the secrets of incredible multi-colored marine life. Whether you spend the day shopping for duty-free gifts and mementos, taking a carriage ride past sorbet-colored buildings, or touring in a glass-bottom boat, chances are you'll leave this happy place in the Bahamas with lots of beautiful memories.

Nassau is the capital, largest city, and commercial centre of the Commonwealth of The Bahamas. The city has a population of 260,000 (2008 census), nearly 80 percent of the entire population of The Bahamas (330,000). Lynden Pindling International Airport, the major airport for The Bahamas, is located about 16 kilometres (9.9 mi) west of Nassau city centre, and has daily flights to major cities in the United Kingdom, United States, Canada and the Caribbean. The city is located on the island of New Providence, which functions much like a federal district. While there is no local government, it is governed directly as an administrative division of the national government. Nassau is considered a historical stronghold of pirates. Source: Wikipedia

Carnival - Day I

We'll wake up this morning in Miami Florida. Sun and fun. Do you see the cruise ships? We're going to be on the Carnival Glory early this afternoon. We will be having lunch on the Lido deck with our blogging buddies. Empress Bee is the queen of the cruise. Well, she called it first as she always does. I'm Princess-Because-I-Said-So. We have a couple of Duchesses too. I'll have a tiara which you will all get to see me wear when I return home. You'll just have to wait.
Let the cruise begin. We sail at 4:00 PM this afternoon. Life is really grand.

Crossing the U.S.A.

We start out the morning around 3:00am so we can get to Sacramento International Airport, get our vehicle parked and check in. Our flight leaves at 6:15am so we can't fool around. Then we can do some breakfast and coffee and then get mauled by the TSA. I think I'll just do the body scan as I don't want some stranger feeling me up. Just saying.

Our first stop is Huston, Texas and we'll have a layover there before we do the last leg into Miami, Florida. We should arrive around 5:30 in the afternoon and then we can get our baggage and head for the hotel. It will be good to get settled and have some dinner and a cocktail or two. We can finally relax. Apparently the hotel we are staying in has a bunch of other bloggers too. Remember this is Carnivals Bloggers Cruise. It's early to bed tonight as we have a big day tomorrow. We will leave the hotel at 11:00am to head to the Port of Miami and the Carnival Glory. Tomorrow we meet all the bloggers that I've been wanting to meet for a very, very long time.

Miami Here We Come

This begins our much awaited Eastern Caribbean cruise on Carnival Glory. We will spend the night in Sacramento (near the airport) and have dinner with friends.

Tomorrow morning we are off to the Sacramento International Airport on our way to Miami. We have to change planes in Dallas/Forth Worth International Airport, and then on to Miami International Airport. To say we are excited about this trip is an understatement.

I can remember many times I've gone along with Sarge Charlie and Empress Bee on their many cruises. I'm actually going to physically go along this time instead of reading their posts. Meeting them along with Sandy and Dick, and Barb, and Linda is going to be tits as Empress Bee would say. I also know I'll make new friends too, since this is a blogger cruise.

Miami, FL
- Miami is an international mecca with a colorful skyline and trend-setting culture. Claiming its place as a truly international city, you can feel Miami vibrate with the energies of different cultures coming together to revel in the beautiful ocean scenery and near-perfect tropical weather. Whether you're taking in the sights at a South Beach café, browsing the open-air shops of Bayside Marketplace or enjoying "un cortadito" in Little Havana, Miami is a melting pot for virtually anyone. (Our hotel is across the street from Bayside Marketplace).

So come along and enjoy all the sights and sounds. We plan on taking lots of pictures and you can see those when we return home.

Spammers Beware

Just so you know my blog will be monitored while we are on vacation. Lois of Lowdown from Lois will be busting then deleting all spammers while we are gone. So spammers beware. Lois is on duty and she hates spammers worse that I do. Don't say I didn't warn you. Go Lois! Hugs

Vacation

Tomorrow we start our Carnival Cruise vacation and that means today is a very busy day. We have to make sure that everything is packed and ready to go for our departure tomorrow afternoon. Our granddaughter will be house/dog sitting while we are away so we are going shopping this afternoon to stock up on the food they like. We are leaving and they are moving in for the next 11 days. Our Little Bit won't like it that we are gone, but if we leave her in a kennel she won't eat. As long as she's home she does okay. She will cry when we return. Tears of joy crying. She is such a precious dear.

If you don't see much of me today you'll know why. I'm so excited about this trip because we started planning it over 8 months ago. I was beginning to wonder if we would ever make it to February 25. Well tomorrow begins our great adventure, and a cruise, but most importantly I'm meeting bloggers that I love. Sarge Charlie and Empress Bee, Dick and Sandy, and Barb and Linda (we met Linda several years ago). For me this is the very best thing of the entire trip.

I've set up post for each day that we're gone that will let you travel along with us. We are not bringing any electronics (except our digital camera) so you'll have to wait for us to return to process pictures and then I'll get some posts up with details. Perhaps I can help Empress Bee stalk someone. One never knows what mischief you can get into on a cruise. I know that I won't be blogging until our return. Let the vacation begin.

She Said...She Meant

A mans guide to what a woman is really saying:

I just need some space..... without you in it.

Do I look fat in this dress?... we haven't had a fight in a while.

No, Pizza is fine..... you cheap slob!

Chucky

An old farmer went to town to see a movie. The ticket agent asked, "Sir, what's that on your shoulder?"

The old farmer said, "That's my pet rooster Chucky, wherever I go, Chucky goes."

"I'm sorry sir," said the ticket agent, "We don't allow animals in the theater."

The old farmer went around the corner and stuffed the bird down his pants. He returned to the booth, bought a ticket and entered the theater. He sat down next to two old widows named Mildred and Marge. The movie started and the rooster began to squirm.

The old farmer unzipped his pants so Chucky could stick his head out and watch the movie.

"Marge," whispered Mildred.

"What," said Marge.

"I think this guy next to me is a pervert," said Mildred.

"What makes you think that," asked Marge.

"He unzipped his pants and he has his thing out," whispered Mildred.

"Well, don't worry about it," said Marge, "At our age we've seen them all."

"I thought so," said Mildred, "But this one is eating my popcorn."

Mommy, I'm Sick

A little nine year old girl was in church with her mother when she started feeling ill. "Mommy," she said. "Can we leave now?"

"No," her mother replied.

"Well, I think I have to throw up!"

"Then go out the front door and to the back of the church and throw up behind a bush." In about two minutes the little girl returned to her seat.

"Did you throw up?" her mother asked.

"Yes," the little girl replied.

"Well, how could you have gone all the way to the back of the church and return so quickly?"

"I didn't have to go out of the church, Mommy." the little girl replied. "They have a box next to the front door that says, 'For the sick'."

The Broadway Show

A man took his wife to a Broadway show. During the first intermission he had to attend to natures call in the worst way, so he hurried to find the bathrooms. He searched in vain for the bathrooms, but he finally found a beautiful fountain with foliage, and since nobody was watching, he decided to take a relieve himself right there.

When he finally got back into the auditorium, the second act had already begun. He searched in the dark until he found his wife. "Did I miss much of the second act?" he asked.

"Miss it?" she said, "You were in it!"

Favorite Flower

While attending a marriage seminar on communication, Jim and his wife listened to the instructor declare: "It is essential that husbands and wives know the things that are important to each other.

"He addressed the men: "For instance, gentlemen, can you name your wife's favorite flower?"

Jim leaned over, touched his wife's arm gently and whispered, "Pillsbury All-Purpose, isn't it?"

The rest of the story is not pleasant.

1955

A crusty old Army Sergeant Major found himself at a gala event hosted by a local liberal arts college. There was no shortage of extremely young idealistic liberal ladies in attendance, one of whom approached the Sergeant Major for conversation.

"Excuse me, Sergeant Major, but you seem to be a very serious man. Is something bothering you?"

"Negative, ma'am. Just serious by nature."

The young lady looked at his awards and decorations and said, "It looks like you have seen a lot of action."

"Yes, ma'am, a lot of action."

The young lady, tiring of trying to start up a conversation, said, "You know, you should lighten up a little. Relax and enjoy yourself."

The Sergeant Major just stared at her in his serious manner.

Finally the young lady said, "You know, I hope you don't take this the wrong way, but when was the last time you had sex?"

"1955, ma'am."

"Well, there you are. No wonder you're so serious. You really need to chill out and relax! I mean, no sex since 1955! Come with me." She took his hand and led him to a private room where she proceeded to "relax" him several times.

Afterwards, panting for breath, she leaned against his grizzled bare chest and said, "Wow, you sure didn't forget much since 1955."

The Sergeant Major said in his serious voice, after glancing at his watch, "I hope not; it's only 2130 now."

Gotta love military time…

Nancy and Harry

Nancy Pelosi called Harry Reid into her office one day and said, "Harry, I have a plan to win back Middle America in 2012!"

"Great Nancy , but how?" asked Harry.

"We’ll get some cheesy clothes and shoes, like most Middle Americans wear, then stop at the pound and pick up a Labrador Retriever. Then, we’ll go to a nice old country bar in Montana and show them how much admiration and respect we have for the hard working people living there."

So they did, and found just the place they were looking for in Bozeman, Montana. With the dog in tow, they walked inside and stepped up to the bar.

The bartender took a step back and said, "Hey! Aren’t you Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi?"

"Yes we are!" said Nancy, "and what a lovely town you have here. We were passing through and Harry suggested we stop and take in some local color." They ordered a round of bourbon for the whole bar, and started chatting up a storm with anyone who would listen.

A few minutes later, a grizzled old farmer came in, walked up to the Labrador, lifted up its tail, looked underneath, shrugged his shoulders and walked out.

A few moments later, in came another old farmer. He walked up to the dog, lifted up its tail, looked underneath, scratched his head and left the bar.

For the next hour, another dozen farmers came in, lifted the dog’s tail, and left shaking their head.

Finally, Nancy asked, "Why did all those old farmers come in and look under the dog’s tail? Is it some sort of custom?"

"Lord no," said the bartender. "Someone’s out there running around town, claiming there’s a Labrador Retriever in here with two assholes!"

In London, it’s illegal to have sex on a parked motorcycle.

The Prospector

An old prospector shuffled into town leading a tired old pack mule. The old man headed straight for the only saloon to clear his parched throat.

He walked up and tied his old mule to the hitching rail. As he stood there brushing some of the dust from his face and clothes, a young gunslinger stepped out of the saloon with a gun in one hand and a bottle of whiskey in the other.

The young gunslinger looked at the old man and laughed, saying, "Hey old man, have you ever danced?"

The old man looked up at the gunslinger and said, "No, I never did dance . . . never really wanted to."

A crowd had gathered as the gunslinger grinned and said, "Well you old fool, you're gonna dance now," and started shooting at the old man's feet.

The old prospector, not wanting to get a toe blown off, started hopping around like a flea on a hot skillet. Everybody was laughing, fit to be tied. When the last bullet had been fired, the young gunslinger, still laughing, holstered his gun and turned around to go back into the saloon.

The old man turned to his pack mule, pulled out a double-barreled shotgun, and cocked both hammers.

The loud clicks carried clearly through the desert air.

The crowd stopped laughing immediately.

The young gunslinger heard the sounds too and he turned around very slowly. The silence was almost deafening. The crowd watched as the young gunman stared at the old timer and the large gaping holes of those twin barrels.

The barrels of the shotgun never wavered in the old man's hands, as he quietly said, "Son, have you ever licked a mule's ass?" The gunslinger swallowed hard and said, "No sir . . . but . . . I've always wanted to."

Smart A$$

Two businessmen in Florida were sitting down for a break in their soon-to-be new store..As yet, the store wasn’t ready, with only a few shelves set up. One said to the other, “I bet any minute now some senior is going to walk by, put his face to the window, and ask what we’re selling.”

No sooner were the words out of his mouth when, sure enough, a curious senior walked to the window, had a peek, and in a soft voice asked, “What are you sellin’ here?”

One of the men replied sarcastically, “We’re selling a$$holes.”

Without skipping a beat the old timer said, “Must be doing well…Only two left.”

The Blonde

A man met a beautiful blonde woman and decided he wanted to marry her right away.

She said, ‘But we don’t know anything about each other..’

He said, ‘That’s all right, we’ll learn about each other as we go along.’

So she consented, they were married, and off they went on a honeymoon at a very nice resort.

One morning they were lying by the pool, when he got up off of his towel, climbed up to the 10 meter board and did a two and a half tuck, followed by three rotations in the pike position, at which point he straightened out and cut the water like a knife. After a few more demonstrations, he came back and lay down on the towel.

She said, ‘That was incredible!’

He said, ‘I used to be an Olympic diving champion. You see, I told you we’d learn more about each other as we went along.’

So she got up, jumped in the pool and started doing lengths. After seventy -five lengths she climbed out of the pool, lay down on her towel and was hardly out of breath.

He said, ‘That was incredible! Were you an Olympic endurance swimmer?’

’No,’ she said, ‘I was a hooker in Pittsburgh and I worked both sides of the River.”

Blog Survey

Greg of The De-evolution of Man did a fun survey he called Greg Answers the Blog Survey. He didn't tag me to do this, but I thought it was pretty cool and decided to complete the survey myself. Well, it mostly means that I don't have any brilliant ideas for another post. So here goes:
  1. If you have pets, do you see them as merely animals, or are they members of your family?

  2. Our Little Bit is an 80 pound flat-coated retriever and she is part of the family. She is the boss at our house. She comes first in everything. We love her oodles and bunches.

  3. If you can have a dream to come true, what would it be?

  4. World peace. I know it will never happen, but that would be my wish. The world seems to be in such turmoil all the time.

  6. Thieves. I can't stand thieves and there are so very many thieves.

  7. What would you do with a billion dollars?

  14. Get undressed, take my NyQuil so I can breath and slip under the covers. I'm usually out in a matter of minutes.

  15. If you are currently in a relationship, how did you meet your partner?

  16. At work of course. Actually I met Zane when he did my background in the 70s. He came to my home to ask me a few questions and I remember thinking, wow, this sergeant is handsome. We worked together off and on over the years and one day he got a divorce. Some months later we went out and well, here we are married and happy.

  17. If you could watch a creative person in the act of the creative process, who would it be?

  18. Claude Monet. He's my all time favorite painter. I would love to watch him work.

  19. What kinds of books do you read?

  35. Would you forgive and forget no matter how horrible a thing that special someone has done?

  37. If you could only eat one thing for the next 6 months, what would it be?

How is Norma?

A sweet grandmother telephoned St. Joseph 's Hospital. She timidly asked, "Is it possible to speak to someone who can tell me how a patient is doing?"

The operator said, "I'll be glad to help, dear. What's the name and room number of the patient?"

The grandmother in her weak, tremulous voice said, "Norma Findlay, Room 302."

The operator replied, "Let me put you on hold while I check with the nurse's station for that room."

After a few minutes, the operator returned to the phone and said, "I have good news. Her nurse just told me that Norma is doing well. Her blood pressure is fine; her blood work just came back normal and her physician, Dr. Cohen, has scheduled her to be discharged tomorrow."

The grandmother said, "Thank you. That's wonderful. I was so worried. God bless you for the good news."

The operator replied, "You're more than welcome. Is Norma your daughter?"

The grandmother said, "No, I'm Norma Findlay in Room 302. No one tells me s**t."

The Career Girl

The beautiful young career girl had one unhappy trait, she would fall head over heels in love with a different man each week, always with the conviction that her latest beau was the man of her dreams, with whom she could live happily ever after.

One particularly devastating experience finally convinced her that she had to put an end to this distressing habit. She vowed to spend the next few evenings alone at her favorite bar to console herself.

As luck would have it, she encountered a handsome, well-groomed stranger, whom she couldn't resist approaching.

"Let me buy you a drink," the young man said, after she sat down next to him. "But I really must tell you that nothing will come of it." His reserve intrigued her, and after several drinks, her attraction to him had grown considerably. In fact, the more the fellow put her off, the more fascinated she became.

'Here,' she thought, 'is a truly fine young man who didn't try to take advantage of her body like all the rest.' Before she knew it, she had invited him to her apartment.

"I'm just not the type of person who does that sort of thing," her new friend replied, "but I'll come along for conversation." His hesitance increased her ardor for him all the more!

By the tune they had reached her apartment, she was irresistibly drawn to him. Once inside, she reclined languorously on the couch and beckoned to him.

"Please," he pleaded. "I told you this couldn't work out."

"But you don't understand," she said. "I want you for my husband!"

"That's quite different!" he said enthusiastically. "Send him in!"

Old Fart Football

An old married couple no sooner hit the pillows when the old man passes gas and says, ‘Seven Points.'

His wife rolls over and says, 'What in the world was that?'

The old man replied, 'its called fart football.'

A few minutes later his wife lets one go and says ‘Touchdown, tie score...'

After about five minutes the old man lets another one go and says, 'Aha. I'm ahead 14 to 7.'

Not to be outdone the wife rips out another one and says, 'Touchdown, tie score.'

Five seconds go by and she lets out a little squeaker and says, 'Field goal, I lead 17 to 14.' Now the pressure is on the old man.

He refuses to get beaten by a woman, so he strains real hard. Since defeat is totally unacceptable, he gives it everything he's got, and accidentally shits in the bed.

The wife says, 'What the hell was that?'

The old man says, 'Half time, switch sides.'
