shrimp56 Posted November 25, 2017 #680 Share Posted November 25, 2017 "So there we sat. A free open bar, lights ablaze, and the band playing on while we noted that our ship now held the record for the most Japanese tonnage sunk since 1945." Best line in a cruise report ever.

It was a memorable night. I am sure the ship ran out of liquor as the bars started closing around 10:00.:( Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was a great line, but I liked the one where he said that he had signed on for a glass bottom boat ride in the Falklands so he could see the Argentinian Navy.

During the war a British submarine sank the Argentine cruiser "General Belgrano," I think that was the last naval engagement of the war. It would have been interesting to see.

Rare ski ww Posted December 13, 2017 #688 Share Posted December 13, 2017 I'm slowly reading your different reviews. I laughed so hard I had to stop & wipe the tears from my eyes. Between the "Queen Mary" & this one I can only imagine what the rest are like. Keep them coming. Allan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkvillain Posted December 15, 2017 #693 Share Posted December 15, 2017 Forgive my ignorance, but I have no idea what Dxx represents. I just assumed that he was laughing so hard he hit some keys on his keyboard by mistake. I've probably made that mistake a few times while reading your reviews as well. Looking forward to your Princess review in January. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
