My wife Elaine and I weren't getting along these days. After a dozen years or so of marriage we didn't see eye to eye anymore. Elaine proposed that we take a vacation cruise and see if we could work things out. I figured we might as well try that. It seemed like a desperate move to get things right. We flew to where the ship was docked and we boarded heading...
My husband and I were sitting in a limousine heading for luxurious accommodations on a cruise to the Caribbean for a honeymoon trip. Unfortunately reality and that statement are a bit at odds. Actually, we were on a bus described as a limousine - a nice bus, but still a bus. Our cruise accommodations actually involved an inside cabin and we called it a "dela...
"Love, exciting and new . . ." As Jaime and Mike Fisher stepped off the plane into the jet way in Ft. Lauderdale, they were enveloped by Florida's sweltering heat and sticky humidity. Only three hours earlier they had boarded a small commuter jet in Moline, Illinois. Before the plane could depart, it had to be deiced by spraying the leading edges of the win...
Waves lapped at the hull of the cruise liner as it made its way sedately across the ocean. On the main deck, leaning against the rail, she stood; breathing in the fresh sea air with her hair blowing gently in the wind. Long, curly and brown it flowed down the back of a flowery sun-dress which outlined a very shapely feminine figure. "Good evening ma'am, ma...
When someone you care about has a birthday, you send a nice card. When someone you love has a birthday, you send a thoughtful gift with that card. When someone you adore, cherish and worship has a birthday, you give that person the most thoughtful, mind-blowing experience you can afford. The kind of experience that sends the message that would take a milli...
I'd always wanted to go on a cruise, but had never quite managed it. There was always a reason we couldn't go, but now things were different. The ids were old enough to leave home, and the company was almost running itself now that we'd put in three hard years getting it established after buying out my first boss, Al. Aaaaah, Al.....now those were some fond...
Angie and I decided it was time for a vacation. Not just a long weekend, but a real trip, somewhere strange and exciting. With no kids, and no bills, and two incomes, we could afford to do whatever we wanted. The only problem was where to go. She wanted to go on a cruise, but I wanted to go to a tropical island. After some serious debating, we came up with...
This is a copy of the letter that Albert Berdequez received from his wife. Medicine Hat, Alberta, Canada. February 3, 2001. Dear Albert, By the time that you receive this letter, which I will mail from the dock in Miami, Florida, the cruise ship, that I am on, will have been at sea for three days. It is the same ship that I was on in February of last year...
The cruise was her idea. We'd never been on one before, and in fact, had never really considered it. We had always preferred to travel off the beaten path, away from the usual tourist areas. A cruise was so, well, touristy. Pre-packaged. "Fun-in-a-box" was the term we used, intended to be a bit derogatory. I mean, where was the fun in being herded into a tow...
By DG Hear & Jake Rivers This story is a collaboration by Jake Rivers and DG Hear. We thought we'd try it and see how it turns out. We would also like to thank LadyCibelle and Techsan for their editing. This story is a sequel to 'Wish Me Luck', about a woman in her forties who found her husband cheating on her. She divorced him and decided to go live out...
