Our Cruise Ship the "Triumph"

First stop, Cozumel Mexico!

Great Beaches!

Seclusion...

...and FUN!

Next, off to Grand Cayman!

...and STINGRAY CITY!

Diotima, Darly and Seeking the Truth!

DON'T GET OUT OF THE BOAT!

Careful...they BITE!

"You grab them like this, then toss them on the bar-b-que before they can bar-b-you!"

"Honey, if we throw them one of the kids, maybe they'll leave us alone."

Darn, those Cayman beaches are ugly...

FReepers enjoying the sand and sun!

On to Jamaica!

Morning in Ocho Rios

Very old Spanish built bridge

Tubing anyone?

"Dear, the waters a little colder than at the beach..."

Even the rivers are aquamarine

You just can't beat Jamaica for their 5 star facilities...

I'm okay with jerk chicken, but skank jerk chicken?

Plenty of places to steal away in the Jamaican Jungle

Back in Ocho Rios, we found this absolutely stunning restaurant at the base of a waterfall called "The Ruins". Here are some shots...

Someone say "dinner"?

Shots from around the ship

BobfromNJ and the dreaded Clinton "VOODOO DOLL"

Well, he WAS our first black prez...

That's all for now folks! Plenty more pics but we won't bore you too much! Hope you can make it with us next time and until then...

Take it easy, mon!"

[alisasny]

Wonderful. Wish we could have come. Maybe next year after the Bush tax cut shows some more green : )

[strela]

A fine selection of pix you posted there - thanks!

(Sure wished I would have brought that big honkin' remote flash unit I have - would have pulled back the darkness even more ...)

[Bob J]

Next year, same time, different place!

[Bob J]

Ya, I was using the little attached flash that came with my camera. It gives me good fill out to about 8-10 feet, after that, it drops off into the inkey night.

[strela]

True. And I like long shots too ... lots of pix on my digital camera that just aren't ready for prime time. I even recorded a couple of cool videos with it that came out ... interestingly.

(The photos on my underwater disposable are a different matter - I'll likely pick up those prints tomorrow).

Looks like everybody had a great time.
Who do I talk to about suggesting next year's cruise be a Glacier Bay Cruise?
Say during the week of June 22?
That will be the time Mrs Cuz (FReeper "tweety pie"), and I celebrate our big 20th. And I can think of no better group of people to celebrate our anniversary that fellow FReepers.

[cuz_it_aint_their_money]

that fellow = than fellow

[The Shrew]

I can't believe I let you take my picture without my shirt on! That must have been straight rum!

Great pics other than that one! Just makes me more committed to losing 31 more before next years cruise!

Regards,

TS

[Bob J]

From what I understand, an Alaskan Cruise has the inside track for next year!

[Bob J]

I think you look pretty good there, but 31 more pounds and you'll be that lean, mean, Marine machine you were a few years ago!

[Lazamataz]

it drops off into the inkey night.

INKY. INKY.

Inkey is next to NumLock.

[cuz_it_aint_their_money]

Outstanding.
Please ping me when a final decision is reached.

[Bob J]

Well, that might not happen until the end of next year or early January. Keep an eye out...

[DoughtyOne]

As the sun sets on this year's FRN 'Freeps Ahoy' 2003 Caribbean Cruise, it looks like everyone had an excellent time.
SeekingTheTruth posted another thread which can be found here:  http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/924990/posts

[Bob J]

That should read "...this year".

[WellsFargo94]

next year's cruise be a Glacier Bay Cruise? Say during the week of June 22?

That's a great time of the year to cruise Southeast Alaska.

[Bahbah]

It's really great to see those pictures as I sit here in my office reminding myself that I really did have that much fun.

[Bob J]

Is it me or was one week just not enough?

[Bahbah]

It is absolutely not just you. I was having thoughts of hopping right back on and doing it all over again. What a fabulous time.
