Did y'all hear that Shoreguy is booked on the 19-day repo cruise from San Francisco to Santiago on the Sun that leaves on 11/4/2008???  I even heard that he already pre-booked the "Alligator Encounter" and "Swimming with Piranhas" shore excursions.  Is anyone else gonna book onto this cruise and see if we can all survive 19 days of partying with the immortal SG?????


:roflmao: Don't forget the "Surfing with the Sandinistas" excursion!

What a shame that NCL doesn't have skeet shooting as an on-board activity these days.  .

I'm sure that SG will book the cliff-diving shorex in Mexico as well.

Anyway, am I the only person here who can take three weeks off to hang out with the helplessly-captive Shoreguy (and his insane TAFH stalker) on a ship for 19 days in November?????

Jim - Our condolences to you and Patrick. Our thoughts and prayers are with both of you.

On a lighter note - Celebrities are always stalked. Simply the price one pays for fame!
Do put a stop to it - enough is enough. She either wants your business or your body - :shock:;);)

Have a beautiful cruise. We are looking forward to your wonderful pictures.

SG, my sincere condolances to Rusty (and you) on the death of his grandfather. How sad that must make him.

The stalker for sure keeps abreast of your cruising plans and that is just creepy. Do try and put a stop to it. If she really is off-balance, though, that might just escalate her weirdness. Be careful.

Sellie, your pics are magnificent!

Jim, my condolences to you and your son as well.  I'm sure this is taking the shine off of a wonderful cruise for your son, but your son is fortunate that he saw his grandfather before leaving on the trip, and he'll always have that memory.

Shoreguy, I'm so enjoying your postings and please add my condolences to the others on the loss of your son's grandfather.

Sellie - FABULOUS pictures, please continue your postings also.

To the rest of us perv's on this posting, you guys are one heck of a collection of fun.  I do hope to get to cruise with you one day.

PS - what's the scoop on the TAFH?  I must have missed that episode of SG's adventures.

just caught up on the SEVEN pages of postings....  it sounds like you're having a good time, except for the sadness of XFIL's passing - my condolences to you and your son.

Keep us updated on all the good times, and take care of that TAFH - she needs a good boot to the head.  (Now does anyone else have that song stuck in their brains? :big grin: )

Ahhhhh Sellie, great pics, especially the food!  If you get Sushi again as a large group, ask if they serve it in a huge boat...you gotta take a picture of it if you do!

Shoreguy, I am sorry for your son's loss.  Please send him my regards.

Good Morning to all – about 12:30 am July 03. Still bright and sunny. A perfect day in Kristiansund. Mid 70s not a cloud in the sky.

 

So I have new leader in the tour director from hell position. Phil (Insidecabin) held that leadership roll since last fall. Petra (Sellie) worked hard today to take over the lead. A simple walk from the ship to a tower 78 meters above sea level. Forget the roads we need to take the walking paths. We got a bit off track and ended up climbing up shear hills in the woods, grabbing roots and balancing on rocks, sliding through mud turning a 2k walk into a 4 k adventure.  The Norwegian beer was very good when we got back to sea level.

 

There was a drive by gummy bear attack in the courtyard today. 3 kids managed to get to deck 14 , enter the courtyard, and clean out the bowl of gummy bears. The butlers were all having a fit….lol

 

Cocktails were aft for sailaway in two of the ADs today. The sun was beating down and in fact fare too warm. Who would have ever thought that would be the case in Norway.

 

Dinner tonight in Papas. A couple of thoughts for those that cruise on the Jade in the future. The lobster ravioli was very good and would make an excellent appetizer. Plan on something more substantial for a main course.

 

Off to the casino. It was Monte Carlo night. The staff and crew in tux t-shirts all day. It was a non event. In fact the casino was very bad to me. Then it was off to Spinnakers at midnight where ever Spanish kid on the ship was hanging out as every night.

 

Back to the cabin to post, resize pictures, and get ready to cross the Artic Circle in 4 hours.

 

12:06 am almost sunset.

I finally did tonight. Headed to the casion I ran into her and her husband. A few cocktals too many and I lost it. Stop asking the officers of the ship about me in fact stop asking me about me. I was very clear that she was f ing pissing me off and enough was enough. My life is mine and stay the f out of it.

That I hope will put an end to it. I hate to have things get ot this point but enoungh was enough.
