I Sometimes Take Separate Vacations From My Sports Addicted Italian Husband (Intervention is Calling)Please Hold---- Okay, I'm Back--- I booked a Cruise Headed For Bermuda, and Chose A Junior Suite With the Balcony (The ONLY WAY TO CRUISE), I even Paid For Snorkeling Excursions Ahead Of Time--- The Morning Of My Flight Out Of My Local Airport, Something Came Over Me. I have Always Been Intuitive To a Very High Degree But This Was A Feeling I could Not Analyze Away---- My Husband woke up when the alarm sounded to make sure I was awake and on schedule, thinking I had Fallen Back To Sleep, He came searching for me ----- This was A NON-REFUNDABLE SITUATION ---(Bad For Me, Good For The Booking Agent) Frankly, I had Been Sitting There For Hours Contemplating What I Was Going To Say To My Husband---- I had Made My Mind Up Hours Before----He Knew Everything was Already Paid In Full With A Non-Refundable Clause---- I looked him square in his face and just told him " I'm Not Going" Something is wrong w/ The Flight or It is The Cruise-- Either Way, I won't be on either one." He Turned to go back to bed and said " Good -- I didn't want you going that far away by yourself Anyway!"-----This Was A Royal Caribbean Cruise Ship ---- Several Months Later I read that 2 separate Women On That EXACT CRUISE that were also traveling alone WERE RAPED BY One Of Their Bartender's Who Dropped GHB In Their Drinks!!!! (I would have been the only other Female Traveling on that ship by myself)---- There were a TOTAL of (3) Women Who had Booked This Cruise As Single Passengers--- I was The 3rd---- He Is Not Even In Jail Because The Rape's Occurred In International Waters!!! All He Received was A Quick Escort By Royal Caribbean Officials Trying To cover up The Scandal and more than Likelyis working for another "CRUISE LINE." Be Careful Ladies and ALWAYS LISTEN TO YOUR INNER VOICE!!! PEACE!!! And Yes My Husband Is The GREATEST GUY !!! xoxoxoxo
