A Sporting Chance – Colombo, Sri Lanka – [03/15/2014]
One of the things that’s unique about the flagship is that the entire entertainment team somewhat does…everything…when we’re assigned IPM (normally IPM just means you stay on the ship and work your normal hours…whatever those may be…here? Not so much). … Continue reading

Hefellumps! – Padong Bay, Thailand – [03/11/2014]
As many of you may remember, my attempt at ‘Shaughnessy’s Exciting Elephant Adventure’ last season was derailed by the angry and slightly scary Phuket Taxi “union” (*cough*mafia*cough*) – who blockaded the crew tour bus into the port and refused to … Continue reading

In Betweens – At Sea – [03/09/2014]
I swear we have more sea days on this cruise than ever before. Over 70 of them! Which is great for the passengers but can get slightly wearing for us…sea day are a heckuva lot more work than ports! Especially … Continue reading
Reassurances – At Sea – [03/10/2014]
In the spirit of keeping everyone in the loop I want to honestly apologize for the vast amount of space in between updates this season. I know I ‘talked’ a lot during my summer contract and by contrast I must … Continue reading
Here For Your Entertainment! – Singapore – [03/08/2014]
I wasn’t going to go. I mean I really wasn’t. I didn’t have the money (what’s left of my cash for the month is supposed to be going towards my Elephant Ride in Thailand) and I’m enough out of the … Continue reading
Cookies N’ Cream – At Sea – [03/06/2014]
It’s odd sometimes, the things you miss even when everything is going really well. For me? I miss baking. I mean I really miss it. I find myself going into book stores and looking at baking cookbooks trying to figure … Continue reading
A Wish Your Heart Makes – Hong Kong – [03/03/2014]
Every year I say I’m not going, every season I say that if I overuse it, it’ll stop working, somehow being special and maybe one day I’ll ‘grow up’ enough that walking through those gates won’t bring tears to my … Continue reading
Higher Still and Higher – Manila, Philippines – [03/01/2014]
I will give you that sail away parties are normally anything but a party. They normally involve a few people milling around the deck with a glass of wine, a few free appetizers and one or two sets by the … Continue reading
We Are Family – Manila, Philippines – [02/28/2014]
This morning a most unexpected noise pulled me out of what was otherwise a completely sound sleep: a child’s laugh. Bleary eyed and blinking, I checked my clock, realized I had slept long enough any way, and smiled somewhat. There’s … Continue reading
Truce – Yap Island, Micronesia – [02/24/2014]
You would not think from looking at Yap Island that it had ever been anything other than what it is – a quiet, tropical place in the middle of pretty much nowhere. A little speck on the map that is … Continue reading
