are you heading down to the Caribbean this January?

Frazz · December 08, 2010, 08:41:20 AM

Barely

It's like the last day or so of January, then it stretches into Feb. Our son had decided to take his family on a shorter cruise out of New Orleans, because that fit their schedule. Then the kids thought it would really be cool if their Grandparents could go. So..... we are going with them this time.

Well?

You know, I was in Nawlins a year ago this month. The lows were in the teens and the fountain in front of the hotel froze solid. Hope it's better for you this year, Frazz...

Truth be known, I like Baton Rouge better!

Wayne, here are the two most important phrases you'll need to know:

"Donde esta el bano?" Where is the bathroom?

"Otro cerveza, por favor." Please bring me another beer......

I'll have you know I don't do jet fuel in the morning. My breakfast of champions is made from 115 octane aviation gasoline. Jet fuel is for kids....

QuoteOtro cerveza, por favor

Otro Pina Colada would have been appropriate.....

As for bathrooms, the International Standard of Symbolic Symbols has already taken care of that...

Looks straight off pirates of the Caribbean. I don't go to places like that, something about having to be dragged back on the plane.
