January 25, 2012  Someone Could Be Following You

Royal Caribbean has 28 different ships. Over the years, we've been on three different square dance cruises with Royal Caribbean. Each cruise sailed to and from completely different ports. By sheer coincidence, the exact same lounge performer entertained on all three cruises. What are the odds that a random performer assigned to random ships would be on our cruise all three times?

Upcoming calling dates. Each one is a strange twist of fate.

I'm sure there's a good reason why we keep running into the same guitarist / singer / entertainer around the globe for the last 6 years. It gets even weirder. This performer is getting married soon and will settle down in our hometown of San Antonio! Maybe each person on earth has someone who follows them around, but we're just not aware of it. Surely this strange twist of events (repeatedly meeting up all over the globe with one particular person who will soon become our neighbor) has some deep inner meaning. Whenever we figure out the meaning, we'll let you know!
