Hi Don . though it wasn't our most memorable cruise , my wife's final cruise was to Iceland/Greenland this summer and a very special moment was when you left Tony in the shuttle queue to come and talk to us about the iceberg trip we were about to take. you are a genuinely a very nice person . long may you cruise

She took his bedroom and Don had to sleep on the couch while he was going through cancer treatments! Don told us this in the video where Don drove 12 hours to see Elisha and new husband Jake's brand new baby. He also stated in that video Elisha introduced Jake as her "friend" when Jake picked her up from the cruise Don pampered her with. Things that make you go hmmmmm....

Midnight buffet, Chocolate buffet, poolside buffet, chocolates on the pillows, etc. That's what made us come back!! I guess you can't stop progress (cost cuts!)!!

Don, I remember how excited you were for Greece with Elisha. You had no idea she was getting married to "friend" Jake who picked her up and drove her back to Key West while leaving you stranded in Florida during COVID! You were so excited until she showed up pregnant! We were so excited to see the footage in Rome and Greece but you were too ashamed to show how pregnant she was and immediately switched your focus towards Captain Kate. Which to your dismay her husband showed up, so you switched your attention to a myriad of other ladies on the ship. The entertainment staff you tried to buy lunch for, one of the dancer's younger sister, your missing attendant, the bouncy nubile cruise winner, oh and yes, the teenage girls on the bus in Greece!

He has a difficult time distinguishing fantasy from reality. He develops crushes on women like a teenager. He was obsessed with Captain Kate after it became apparent that he didn’t have a chance with pregnant Elisha. He was asking his prescribers to send her candy to his home to surprise her when he sailed with her as he only wanted to cruise on her ships Then it was the cruise director Natalie he sought out in Australia. And did a video of their date Never heard what happened to her. These comments may appear rude but he is also rude as a gentlemen never discusses his feelings in public let alone on U tube he invades these women’s privacy and dignity by openly speaking about them
