Princess Cays
The tiny island of Eleuthera in the Bahamas is home to the private beach party hosted exclusively for Princess guests. A full day of fun in the sun offers something for every member of the family from snorkeling, kayaking, sailing and floating to lingering over drinks and a delicious barbecue.
Princess Cays Princess Cruises' private beach serves up a good time, including a coral reef with schools of tropical fish, a special area dedicated to children's activities, water sports equipment, relaxing music, bar facilities, and lunch! Island Activities Hit the beach and clear waters with snorkeling gear or a floating mattress. Join a basketball game or the action around the volleyball court. Check out the seaboards, aqua bikes, Hobie Cat sailboats, Sunfish sailboats, paddle wheelers, Banana Boats or transparent hull kayaks at the water sports pier. Climb the Crow's Nest Tower for panoramic views, or shop for local handicrafts. Beach BBQ Three bars and live music compliment lunch and the authentic Bahamian barbeque on the beach. Feast on hamburgers, chicken, bratwurst, salads, and fresh fruit. Water, tea and lemonade are available at the picnic area for no additional cost, and a full staff of drink servers is on hand to serve cocktails and soda.

"Gosh darn...right when I'm giving finals. "

Does that mean you can't attend? What a bummer. I'd consider going just to watch you wet yourself after seeing a Confederate battle flag. I'm also sure there would be opportunities to watch you berate any smoker that you might encounter. One can only imagine how you would react to a smoker wearing a Confederate battle flag cap.

Bahama Mama was browsing through some of her old FR cruises archives and came upon a treasure trove of comments made by Freeper Cruisers after they had been on a FReeps Ahoy. Here are a few excerpts worth repeating:

"You HAVE to come on the next freeper cruise - they are fantastic! I didn't know that anything could be so.....well, a description or statement is just so inadequate. You just have to go!!!"

"The Freep Boat
Soon will be making another run
The Freep Boat
Has something for everyone!"

"We had a great time. We cannardly wait for the next cruise!"

"I'm ready to go again tomorrow."

"The 'Rats (over on the DU website are not happy. They wish they could have gone on the cruise."

"We are all counting on it, Bigun
And we cannardly wait for the nextun
'Cause when Freepers cruise
And party, mix and schmooz
The result will always be good nuze"

"The cruise was more than I could have imagined, in more ways than I could possibly say!!

"This GREAT cruise was way too short. Hope the next one is longer."

"For all of those thinking of enjoying the chance of a lifetime to be with Freepers, GO ON THIS CRUISE! You will not regret it."

"To anyone still thinking about it: DO IT! FUN! Exciting places, lovely accomodations, delicious food, and BEST OF ALL: Wonderful Freeper company!!!"

Well, there are scores more we could list. But wouldn't you agree that the best endorsements for our cruises are from the keyboards of freepers themselves?

We cannardly wait to sail away on the Caribbean Princess with a full complement of our very own pals, patriots, punsters and poets.

Bahama Mama respectfully requests posters on this happy cruise thread stay on topic. Thanks,

Maybe as well while you are thinking about all this you could start being dues paying members by donating a couple bucks to FR...maybe out of that cigarette smoking budget? Isn't it funny how it's the non paying members that squeak the loudest?

What the heck is being said here!  I just came back to my computer and got this ping!  Can someone tell me why I was pinged under the guise of a "nazi smoker" and being a cheap skate???!! 

I DONATE to FRee Republic thank you!  As if it's any of your business.  My name is also on the record for the public to see.  I highly suggest you read that before you accuse any of us of not donating to our beloved FR.

[MinuteGal]

Again, Bahama Mama loves you all, but requests you settle any differences among yourselves by freepmail.

Folks are interested in news for this cruise. It makes it difficult if they have to scroll past a lot on off-topic issues. Your cooperation is respectfully appreciated. Thanks,

Bahama Mama

Gosh darn...right when I'm giving finals.

Ha ha ha! I just knew your were an educrat.

Here's a tip, pedagogue: Most of us here already graduated and neither want nor need your input.

I apologize Minute Gal.  I came back to my computer with some kind of nasty ping.

Anyway, the cruise looks heavenly!!!  And very tempting!!!!! :)

What a beautiful thread.  I love cruises! 

[MinuteGal]

Thanks, SL. Now I have some good news to report.

Carlo3b, our own Master Chef, author, lecturer and raconteur extraordinaire, is donating a number of "The Clinton Legacy Cookbook, to our cruise.

Thanks, Carlo, for your generosity and warmheartedness. We hope you can join us in a future FReeps Ahoy. We all appreciate what you do for FR and for our cruises.

Carlo donated a goodly number of the cookbook for our last cruise, also. We used them for table prizes. They were a hot item.....it's a GREAT cookbook, and you'll find the sidenotes on many pages to be Hillaryious! To boot, each book is autographed by the Master himself.

How about a recipe for "Clinton's-Horns-Popping-Out-of-the-Devil's-Food-Cake"?

Or "PETA Heartburn Chili?"

Or "Sheeple Rack of Lamb?"

Or Bahama Mama's own, "Hillary (My-Brain-Is-Jello) Salad"?

This cookbook is chock full of recipes from over two hundred freepers nationwide. Don't let the titles fool you....you'll find down-home, rib-stickin', finger-lickin' and regional recipes that will thrill ya to death.

Does anyone doubt that freepers are fabulous cooks and bakers?

Once again, thanks for the cruise contribution, Carlos. We'll salute you at table with glasses of wine.

(....what wine would you recommend?)

(LOL)

[Mears]

Well now! Congratulations,Petronski!

[Mears]

Jeesh! I'm out all day and get home and find the attack dogs on FR have escaped.LOL

The cruise sounds like lots of fun but I don't do cruises.

I hope all Freepers who go have a great time.

.......................................................

Yeah I know graduated from the school of hard knocks...


Those little fingers with nothing much to do looking me up and ...wow makes me feel important.

[MinuteGal]

Let's stop the bubble machine. I know you can do it. Thanks in advance,

Bahama Mama

[dalereed]

We're ready to go including airline reservations.

See everybody at the Comfort Inn 5/12!

[MinuteGal]

Great, Dale.....happy you and Mrs. Dale are registered and prepared to sail. See ya in May!

Bahama Mama

[Syncro]

You're going to be one sought-after gal on the cruise...

I'm sure that is a typo...I don't look like this anymore..If I did I imagine I would be sought-after...

[dalereed]

If you looked like that you had better stay out of West Hollywood!

You would be taken for the opposite of what I know you to be!

[metesky]

Yeah I know graduated from the school of hard knocks...

Should I red pencil this sentence or have you already spotted your faux pas, teach?

Those little fingers with nothing much to do looking me up and ...wow makes me feel important.

Sorry old girl, but you're not important enough for me to be "looking you up." I was pinged to the thread after your rude remark about donations to FR. You assumed quite a bit there and if you weren't working on an assumption, if in fact you are privy to the donation lists, you should keep your mouth shut (I know that's hard when there are so many of us fourth graders who need a good scolding).
