TexasFyre Posted November 2, 2005 #2 Share Posted November 2, 2005 I have been searching all over the net and with relatives that live there. Not a thing is being said that they have heard or I have found. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scrapcreator Posted November 2, 2005 #8 Share Posted November 2, 2005 Nah, they didn't tip the porters and the porters pressed charges. Jeanne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasFyre Posted November 2, 2005 #9 Share Posted November 2, 2005 my oh so pessimistic husband thinks it was a terrorist tip-off, that is why it isn't in the news. I am still searching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caprcorn28 Posted November 2, 2005 #11 Share Posted November 2, 2005 I am thinking it was a liquor smuggle gone bad!!! :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big_duck Posted November 2, 2005 #12 Share Posted November 2, 2005 According to Cruise Cal, that would have been the Carnival Spirit returning from Mexico. Maybe some people thought it would be a good idea to come back with some "happy plant" and got caught by customs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkk Posted November 2, 2005 #13 Share Posted November 2, 2005 We've seen that many times on cruises...usually stupid people trying to smuggle drugs..the dogs get them every time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perrys100 Posted November 2, 2005 #14 Share Posted November 2, 2005 Never, never, never, bring any contraband back into the UNITED STATES. Best advice... before you approach the home port throw it all overboard! ALL OF IT!! Party hardy and have fun but for gods sake be SMART! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coolestwife Posted November 2, 2005 #15 Share Posted November 2, 2005 What happened is they were international spies that were attempting to smuggle in contraband as they were polishing off their "creatively packed" hooch while sling-shooting "water-balloons" (glow-in-the-dark) from the funnel deck with their wives' thongs (who were in their cabins frantically using the rest of their Magic Powder)...all after a week of surreptitiously taking pictures of their pictures and wearing jeans & flip-flops in the dining room on formal nights....and smoking on their balcony and/or non-smoking areas on their hogged deck chairs and stolen pool towels.....:eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NRWO Posted November 3, 2005 #18 Share Posted November 3, 2005 99.9% of the time that scene you are witnessing is because of contraband caught by customs, and 99.9% of the time that contraband is drugs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AppleValleyCruisers Posted November 4, 2005 #21 Share Posted November 4, 2005 Good thing the dogs can't tell the difference between Cuban cigars and those made in Honduras or Mexico. I know that a couple of people would have gotten caught upon disembarkation on our cruise. Damn scofflaws! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
