Day 3: Monday June 4 Grand Turk B.W.I.
Our ship sailed into the Turks and Caicos just before 7am and this was the day that I was going to wake up early and catch the sunrise. Well, if 6:30 isn't early enough to catch the sunrise, then that just isn't going to happen this cruise. I was however the first person off the ship and I was able to walk the beach by myself before 3000 other cruisers all came aground and overran the area. i walked to the very end of the island and visited a place called the conch graveyard before heading back to the ship to get breakfast and Shandle. After breakfast we picked our spot under a shady palm tree on the beautiful beach and spent some quality beach time in Grand Turk. After swimming in the ocean it was time to get liquored up so we headed to Jimmy Buffet's Margaritaville where we spent the afternoon drinking Pina Coladas, Margaritas, and Havanas and Bananas straight from the blender at the swim up bar. Well we are back on board and sailing towards La Romana, Dominican Republic now and are really looking forward to our adventure tomorrow.
On a side note, I have been accosted three times now by three different people. Last night on our way back from the Comedy Club a lady who had WAAAAYYYYY too much too drink stumbled into our elevator and proceeded to beg me for a piece of my watermelon off my plate. Then this morning at breakfast some guy sitting at the table next to us asked me for half my banana, I gave i to him but made some crude joke about exactly what I had done to the banana beforehand. And, finally at Margaritaville this kid (young enough for me to laugh it off, but old enough to know better) starts splashing me while I was taking a picture. I had sand on my feet and was standing on a bridge above the pool, I kicked sand at him and he ran away after that, it made me laugh :)

Now to end this blog update with a joke we picked up at the Comedy Club.
Two whales are swimming around (a boy whale and a girl whale). All of a sudden the boy whale starts crying. "What's wrong" asks the girl whale. "Well you see that boat up there above us, that bot is full of guys who hunted and killed my entire family". The girl whale looks sad and asks if there is anything she can do. The boy whale replies "Well we could swim up there and blow water on them and knock them off their ship. The girl whale agrees and they swim to the surface and blow out of their blow holes, all the men go overboard. The whales start to swim away when all of a sudden the boy whale starts crying again. "What's wrong now" asks the girl whale. "Well, we knocked them overboard but they are close to shore so they'll probably be rescued... my family didn't get saved, so I don't think it's fair" replys the boy whale. The girl whale looks a little suspicious and asks "What would you like to do about that"? The boy whale gets excited and says "Let's swim up there and eat them"!!! The girl whale stops and says "It's the first date, I have no problem giving a blowjob, but I am not swallowing any SeaMen"...
Allright that's all I've got for now... We'll update again in La Romana.
