A wHOLE lot of Glory...

My flight from Miami to Belize was fairly uneventful aside from the middle age couple across the aisle from me. They are obviously very much in love and were making out and I am pretty sure doing other stuff most of the trip. I thought they were newlyweds, but neither was wearing a wedding ring. If they did just get married we know that they would have them on.



This is my first time on the Carnival Glory. It is a conquest class ship which means it is the second largest in their fleet and I have been on these before so thankfully I know my way around.



Today we are in Isla Roatan Honduras. Unfortunately I am stuck on board. To get off the ship a staff member must put their ID card into the security machine. The MSA (Manager of Ship Administration) office where I get that ID was closed this morning for safety drills. Am I upset? No. Safety truly does come first with the crew and staff on the Carnival ships. That is A-O-K by me.



Tonight I have two shows at Punchliner’s Comedy Club at 8:30 & 10:45pm. The other comic, Jim Brick, was the first comedian I worked with on board the Pride when I first started with Carnival. I’ll go and watch Jim’s first show so I can get a feel for the crowd and that way I have a better idea of what they will be like for my family friendly show.



TRAVEL TIP: For the love of all things holy, be prepared when you go through security at an airport. Take off your belts, watches, jewelry, wallets, cell phones, smart phones and empty your freaking pockets people! YES, they want you to take your laptops out, so have it ready to go when you are in line. THEN, once you are through, take your stuff to the benches so you can repack and put your shoes back on. Don’t do it at the fracking conveyer belt. These are simple things that keep the line moving. Thank you for your cooperation.
