The storm at the end of the Castaway Cay Day! That was wild! Brendan and I hung out for a few mins at the tiny post office....before running to the ship!


Chrissie

I was getting a massage when the storm came through. I got a little wet.

I never really determined if the lead singer was male or female.

Those cabana massages are soooo relaxing! I just about fell asleep when I had mine.

The picture in my sig was taken moments before the downpour. Jack

If Brendan moved quick enough I would have had a great foto of him near that big fish foto spot and a HUGE bolt of lightning behind him!

But he was a slow poke!

Pete had the suite with the huge veranda on the August cruise. Despite his inebriated state, he couldn't fall off even if he tried,

Was it Pat from SNL?

Driving can be an interesting experience in LA. Depending on how you manage (or not) your plans. We have some 12-15 million people spread out here with almost nothing going vertical (few high rises). And no effective mass transit system to speak of. So, driving is sort of central to the culture out here. Navigating the freeways can seem unusual to some folks not accustomed to our scale of traffic. You cna be driving at 3AM and hit a traffic jam... and I would always turn to my spouse and quip ..." only in LA would you find something like this on a FIVE LANE freeway at 3AM!". Seriously though, it is not that bad here all the time. Just that it DOES happen from time to time. Check out this link to a live map of the LA freeway network with speed and accident updating.... http://www.sigalert.com/map.asp?Region=Greater+Los+Angeles

So - renting a car opens the door to endless possibilities within our region. I don't know if you can imagine properly what is within a 100 mile radius of Anaheim. You have beaches, skiing, most of the SoCal amusement parks, dozens of world renown museums, and points of unusual merit plus 10s of 1000s of restuarants.

I would be very happy to narrow your list on points of interest or dining recommendations/ideas. Plus a few notions that may strike you as slightly unusual but OK for SoCal. Like going to the Pantry at the crack of dawn or late nite as a late nite iconic dining experience. Along with dozens of other "iconic" late nite ideas/adventures to engage in. Shoot... I might even drive out with one of my kids to MEET you at one of these iconic dining spots - depending on my schedule of course.

At any rate... a car should definatly be in the cards for LA. Unless you KNOW all you want is to visit Disneyland/CA for the days you'll be here.

Thanks for the insight, cc.

I think we will be renting a car. Not sure where I want to go, but I want to go at tleast a week pre-cruise

Oh how I wish my kids didn't have swim lessons tonight. I would have loved to post 20 pages of nothing but blah blah blah.

JR...........Way to Show Spirit Buddy !!!!

OH! THAT drunk guy who almost fell off a balcony. I've heard that story!

The lead singer frightened me!

One night we went in to get a seat for the NEXT performer so we were in one of the comfy boothes in the back....The group "hi couple in the back!".....we just started laughing!

I am always too busy looking for a place to hide so I can stay on CC. FGM always finds me...........

If I win the lottery tonight, I will pay off the cruise for anyone whose whose name currently appears on our cruise website.

You're a real sport, you are

This was my first and for some reason I thought the sand would be irritating, but I didn't feel sandy.
