Soooo, one of the Templeshifs, [yes
those two Wacko friends in Vegas] says to the Dragon Lady,
“Whatcha doing for New Years
Eve?”
To which she replies:
“Watchin’ the ball drop on ABC
and goin’ t’bed”
To which they say…
Wait for it…
Wait….
Wait…
“Wanna go on a NYE cruise to Aruba?”
"And just like that"... [to steal a line from Sarah Jessica Parker’s new TV series], we’re headed to the Western Caribbean on the RCCL Jewel of The Seas for 10 days with the Templeshifs and another couple they met in a Lotto line.
Seriously, they met Steve and Ellen [Last name deleted to protect their
reputation] in a Lotto line. All because the spot Lenny usually goes to had a
line around the block and the clerk told them there was a shorter one 3 miles
down the road. And of course since,
a.
Lenny
hates lines,
and
b. Lenny
never met a stranger [ask him to explain that… if and when you ever get to meet
him]
He heads down the road and while in line there, must have been a big jackpot with all these lines, and meets Steve. And the rest, as they say, is history. Or sumpthin’ like that.
Anyhow, Here we are heading out of the Port of Miami on a less than fully staffed Royal Caribbean mid-sized ship with less than half capacity of daring, vaccinated, recently Covid tested [we'll get into that little detail later] reckless cruise enthusiasts on our way to what may prove to be a VERY interesting sojourn along the Central and South American coasts with a couple of stops along the way to Aruba and back to Miami.
As you have probably surmised by now, this will not be your usual NOWAT since HE seems to have forgone the usual Blah… blah…blah about this, and that mall trip, packing Ballet etc.
Then again…
Well, just stay tuned for the usual NOWAT ALERT to see what he has whipped up for this, the latest of the Exciting Travels [or is that Travails] of the Wacky American Tourist and the Ever-Lovely Dragon Lady.
And yeah, he'll get around to a recap and pre-amble in the next post... Maybe
For now, John Dewar and Sons are calling his name, and who is he to ignore them.
Ciao 4 Now
