LIVE from GRANDEUR of the Seas - July 8, 2017

... If I were on the sailboat I would request that an Oasis class ship with good au jus come rescue me.

How's the upload speed Tim? Good enough for Periscope of the sailboat rescue?

Carp.

[Yorkvillain]

The crowd "oohed" and "aahed" when a whale just jumped out of the water. Of course I missed it because I was looking at my phone.

[Yorkvillain]

Carp.

 

Haven't seen any carp. [emoji226]

Captain Thor just made an announcement that we are on our way to help a sailboat about an hour away that has damaged sails and is low on fuel. It shouldn't affect our Bermuda arrival time tomorrow.

 

A round of applause broke out in the Windjammer after that announcement. I wonder if they still would have clapped if the Captain said because of this we have to skip Bermuda and go to Falmouth instead.

 

hahaha re Falmouth.

Is there a Twisted Kilt near the cruise port? I could see some Scottish Eggs and Caronas being consumed while watching preseason Giants football or rerun NY Islanders games.

Courtney - Out cold since the second we got back to the room. Hasn't moved an inch. Have to check every 22 minutes to make sure she's still .

 

 

 

Pics. And then a pic of Courtney kicking you in the throat.

I just periscoped it. I think it worked pretty well.

Whoops, I think you meant to click on a live Harmony or Anthem thread and not this review from a 21-year-old grimy Grandeur gondola. Silly you. Nobody sails on the little 'ol Vision class anymore, let alone does a live review from one. Do they even have wifi or electricity on the older vessels?

 

If you haven't left yet then I assume you are as crackbrained as we are and have a sick fetish for dodging shower curtains on pre-Titanic era cruise ships. If that's the case then stay tuned because we are about to party like it's 1996.

 

Here's the #1 hit of 1996 to get you fired up:

I kinda think that the girls in the Macarena video look just a tad bit better than the average cruise crowd doing the same dance on the pool deck after a big Windjammer lunch.

LOL, have a great cruise! Will be sialing the grand old lady august 10th. Looking forward to your pics and posts!...K.O.:)

[Thetrail]

Next, I am going to post 35-40 photos of our luggage from 9 different angles. Enjoy.

WOW! My excitement level just went through the roof!;)

[h20skibum]

Oh no, I am late to the party. Didn't know there was another Yorkvillain live going on, till I got the Periscope notification for the sailboat rescue. I had to speed read it in the last few minutes.

 

What did they do, take them a 5 gallon can of gas and send them on their way?

Oh boy. I think I may have to cut back on the internet sarcasm.

 

The casino hours I posted before was a joke. Sorry about that.

LOL don't be sorry, when you post a joke I just sit back and wait for that first response from anyone that doesn't have their thinking cap on....K.O.:D

[CTCruiser76]

Just watched your periscope video - Nice job !! Thanks for the report !!

[Yorkvillain]

Oh come on. It's not that bad out.

 

[Yorkvillain]

Pics. And then a pic of Courtney kicking you in the throat.

 

 

Haha. I just got the "don't you dare take a picture of me when I'm sleeping" line.

 

Doug has it so easy.

[Mcdonaldbam]

Just watched your periscope video - Nice job !! Thanks for the report !!

 

How do you watch the video?

[Bookish Angel]

Has anyone ever done this before? First time I've seen it. Maybe I just haven't looked hard enough before.

 

 

Please let me know if the staff or the passengers are bottomless. If the latter, I need to start working on my glutes.:o

 

Enjoying the humor - it helps pass the time until we board Grandeur in September.

Great scoping Tim.

[Mcdonaldbam]

Thanks for the link Defender1158.

Would have thanked you earlier but I was watching the video. Lol

[Defender1158]

Yes, it takes a while to view it.

 

We have been on Grandeur twice, and are booked for a 12 nighter in November, so I am following this thread with interest.
