early drinks

Absolutely the first thing we do when we get on-board is go straight to the Schooner Bar and order a drink BEFORE we go and check in to our muster station. You never know, there might be a long line and we could need some hydration beverage.😁

It is a cardinal rule that if you are an adult, the number one, first and foremost, most important, absolutely necessary thing to do once you board is order a drink🤪

I once bypassed this rule and decided to hop in the pool (instead of the bar) immediately upon arrival. While getting in, I slipped and sprained by thumb. It was incredibly painful and almost considered leaving the ship to run to an urgent care before departure. Instead, I went and got a Bud Light aluminum can and held it against my finger while drinking. Several years later, I occasionally still have pain in that thumb, but it taught me the importance of alcohol on vacation.

That is more than a rule, it’s tradition!!! 

Law, one would say. International law.

And that lesson would be....alcohol first, pool injury second, that way alcohol has numbed your body and the injury doesn't hurt as much. 😆
