OK you got me.... What is that... It is on every navigator I see. Is that a secret code for past cruisers or something?

Friends of Bill W. is an AA meeting.

Wow, I never would have guessed that. I guess it is a good idea on a ship that has lots of drinks.

Thanks so much for satisifying my curiosity.

Bill W was the founder of AA.

I give DCL a great deal of credit for offering this to their passengers and their discretion in informing them of its availibility.

It took a lot of us a long time to figure it out. Myself, I didn't ask anyone thinking if I had to ask Bill W wasn't a friend so I wasn't invited anyway. Then about 6 months later, while listening to Paul Harvey he said something and it all clicked.

Most cruiselines offer "Friends of Bill W" meetings onboard. The temptations must be so great in that sort of atmoshpere. I was recently at a hotel and they also had a meeting time posted on the bulletin board there.
