Day 1 – Miami
Our heroes got to the ship around 11:00am.
They danced to a violinist and then a band called Royal Flush who played a lot of progrock that they could dance night club slow and night club 2 step to.
They watched a tribute to Queen.
Day 2 – sea day #1
The group saw a performance of Dirty Dancing where they played the movie, had a band fill in the music, and had a bunch of dancers on the stage and around the audience.
That night, they performed a 30 minute version of the same thing, but without the movie.
Also, more dancing.
Day 3 – Domican Republic
There was a bit of a fire drill finding a place to hang out in the DR (that’s what the cool kids call it). When Pam called to ask for a day pass, they said $60 each. When they got there, the price changed to $150 each.
They moved to another hotel and had a much better, cheaper time.
Also, damn it was hot.
Back on the ship, they got in a lot of dancing. As they walked in to the first place, the band had just started a beautiful version of “one thousand years”. Steve thought “we’ve got dance to this right now.” He caught up to Pam and on their way to the dance floor, they agreed to dance a nightclub slow.
All modesty aside, they usually dance this pretty well, but this was one of those times when everything lined up and it was perfect.
As Pam and Steve walked back to their seats, the band played another slow song. This one was perfect for a nightclub two step. Again, everything was lined up and it was another of our best performances.
It went downhill from there, but they’re taking the win.
Day 4 – San Juan, Puerto Rico
They went exploring in very hot weather. Instead of a formal excursion they walked around and spent money.
Also, more dancing.
Day 5 – sea day #2
They played at a quiz and lost didn’t win and did a lot of dancing.
Day 6 – sea day #3
See day 5.
Day 7 – Ocean Cay
They hung out at a beach until 2:00 or so. Then they did a lot of dancing. They also saw a dance / acrobatic interpretation of the Odyssey.
Day 8 – Miami again
They got off the ship 🚢 and on the road in record time. As the title suggests, there were no hospitalizations 🎉
