WOW Sara Lee.

This lifeboat drill really seems to have you upset! How can the rest of us help you through this? I don't like it either because it takes precious time out of a trip where every minute counts but it can have amusing side angles. Our family of 4 were in Nassau and my wife, daughter and me hit the town while my then 13 year old son decided to stay on board and sleep off his night in the teen center. Well, as it turned out that was the day that the crew had it's weekly practice drill. All the ships bells, whistles and alarms went off and when we got back to the ship later in the day the crew was laughing about this one 13 year old idiot standing out by his designated lifeboat half asleep wearing his life vest.

Thanks again Sara Lee for getting me on this board with all its fine entertainment.

[QUOTE="RogerD, post: 671157"] WOW Sara Lee. This lifeboat drill really seems to have you upset! How can the rest of us help you through this? I don't like it either because it takes precious time out of a trip where every minute counts but it can have amusing side angles. Our family of 4 were in Nassau and my wife, daughter and me hit the town while my then 13 year old son decided to stay on board and sleep off his night in the teen center.
