so, skip - how'd the cruise turn out for you and your bride?
It was a LOT of fun! I think we're going to do it again on their Fantasy Fest Halloween cruise.
Here's our group shot. We are just behind and to the right of the guy in the red robe.
Another 100 (safe for work) pictures are here.

I got some pretty good pics. We went swimming with dolphins.
We went to Carlos & Charlie's in Cozumel and it turned into one of the wickedest public parties I've ever seen, and that's saying something.
Paid a cab driver to be our tour guide for a couple hours in Montego Bay. Some pretty vistas, but it's a crowded dump of a place up close.
Since we couldn't run around naked while docked, Dianne brought a skimpy bikini to wear. Arrrrrrrr, pirates!
Our little boat.
When were in Montego Bay, Dianne and I got to hang out with a bunch of passengers on a different Carnival ship docked beside us. We had great fun freaking them all out by telling them about our cruise.
The whole running around naked with 2000+ other naked people was enjoyable for us. We do understand that most people wouldn't or couldn't do this, but to each their own. I wasn't that impressed with the Carnival boat, but the sheer friendliness of the passengers made up for the gaudy boat and so-so food.
That's it! For a parting shot, our (now) traditional muster drill self-portrait.
