Grand Caymen, Jamaica & Cozumel with 3 Wild Travel Chica Peeps!!

the rest of the pics from this super cool trip!

OK, as you all know, the Minkster has been on many, many party cruises. He LIVES to party. However, this was the King Bee of em all! I went with 3 of my favorite travel peeps -- Dana, Stella & Paula to 3 different party cruise locations, and did we ever get down! WhooooooooHoooooooo Chicas!

We started partying before we ever got on the boat. We were in a hotel waiting for our "ship to come in" lol .... and they made me gamble before the ball even started rolling.

We played Farkle, that game everyone plays on Facebook, only it was for $$$. The Mink only travels with a tiny bit of money in his little black travel bag, and they won it all from me before the trip even began! Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

That's ok ... I have some sharp little teeth, and they know it, so they didn't take advantage of me the rest of the trip. (Darn ... I wanted them to take advantage of me ... heh heh).

I met tons and tons of new friends though, cos Dana and Stella would get completely ripped and take me EVERYwhere to mix with everyone. And they were brazen little hussies, let me tell you. They even went to the "Appleton Rum Estate" in Jamaica so they could try to get at those giant barrels of rum, but they could only use glasses to drink.

That's ok, though, cos they let the Mink have his share, too, during the whole trip. The first place we went was to Jamaica. There's some pics in the slideshow of the old way to make rum ... with a donkey turning a little barrell of sugarcane to make the molasses that goes in the rum. It's a SUGAR high... not a boozey one, hehe! Then we went to a rum cake factory, too. Bet they never do that again. With all that sugar, the Minkster was pinging off every tree and every wall in sight! hehe

Paula was doing a "zip line" while everyone else was at the rum estate. I wanted to do that too, but between booze and zip line? Nah. The Mink knows how to "zip" around without some silly line!

Then we went to Grand Caymen Island and were supposed to go pet sting rays, but the water was all murky, and you wouldn't want to reach in to pet one of those thangs and not know where that big ole tail stinger is. It'd be Fried Minkey for sure!

So instead, we went to a sea turtle farm! The Mink liked that, cos he likes to visit with other animals on his trips. These were baby turtles though, thank goodness, because in Hawaii, a GIANT one chased after the Minkster at the Honolulu Zoo! It only went 1 mile in 5 hours, but it had that huge beak-thingy and a head that could shoot out and get the Mink. YIKES!!! It made me cry.

Then they actually took me to HELL!!! Yes, that's right ..... HELL. That's where they're going to spend all eternity if they don't watch it, too! That was a horrible influence on a little red minkey. I put Stella's bra in the freezer for that one. She'll pull it out from under her blouse if she gets tired of it. That was a mistake with me nearby, though. heh heh. There's a video of her actually doing that at work. Told you she was wild!!

Next place we went was Cozumel, Mexico. There, Stella and Dana went on a 65' catamarand for a beach party and snorkeling. Then Paula went and actually walked on the bottom of the ocean 20 feet down! There were no helmets the size for a little red monkey, so I got left out of that and sniffled all day on the bed with my friend the towel monkey. He's a good friend to have, cos he can dry your tears.

Back on the ship, I danced with one of the cruise directors, I got to sing in my Yoko Ono voice using the sound equipment on the ship's stage, they took me for some really nice meals where everyone wanted to meet me and have their pictures taken with me .... and I even played a piano!

They let me gamble on the slot machines, and on one of them, I think it was a banana that came up and threw me into a tizzy, cos you can tell there was some real Minkster action goin' on in some of those photos!

Then of course, we hit every bar we passed and every store that had a drop of booze in it. These women are (sort of) lushes! HeeeeeeeHeeeeeee! Just look at the slide show to see the Minkster ain't lyin' cos they have a drink in their hand in just about every picture. hehe WAY tee many martoonies on this trip ... even for me. The Mink likes to at least remember where he's been!

I had a slumber party every nite in our rooms where I felt really pampered and special (look at the slideshow for those pics too). And one of the cruise employees made a towell toy again for me to ride (I get those on every trip). I may be getting jaded on the towell animals. Minkey is getting to be a very sophisticated traveler.

Next trip is exotic Singapore! I went with one of the techie guys she works with, and he was working there most of the time, so he didn't take many pictures of me, but that's ok. Minkey Mama will fix that. She's waiting to get those pics digitally before she does that one (HINT, HINT, JEFF!), so y'all try to be patient. I know it's hard when you're waiting on anything to do with the Mink! hehe

Check Y'all Later!

This was the most unusual trip yet, cos I got to go and be a Pirate in South Padre Island with Minkey Mama's boss and some of her family.  We went on the pirate ship because this trip was with the kids.  YIPEE!!!   I always have so much fun with them.  Their names are Kevin, Alex and the twins - Kylee and Baylee.  We got to do lots of things we wouldn't have done without the kids, so that made the Mink very happy.  Oh, and I don't want to leave the big people out (big as in old).  No wait....They're young, tall people!  hehe   Don't want to make them mad, or they won't ever take me again.  That was Lena and Jason, in addition to Mz.Colene.

We did a road trip to get there,  and then we went to the beach on the Island and to a Pirate Ship with real Pirates and everything! There was a treasure chest, and all the kids had sword fights with the Pirates. The Minkster decided against that. One fell swoop with that big ole knife, and red fur would fly everywhere.  No more little red monkey! Ooooooooo.  Just too scary for me. The Pirates turned out to be real mean, just like you hear, because they were making all the poor, innocent kids swab the deck!

There were also some really fun children's museums there that we went to, and all the kids included the Mink in everything they did.  I liked that.  They're really fun peeps to have.

The beach was extra fun this time, too.  The Mink always has fun on beach trips. We all built a HUGE sand castle, and I got to sit on top of it because it was just my size! Yipee!! I had lots of weird looks from strangers when I did that. I got really stinky, too, with all the sand and seaweed smells, and when I got back home and to Minkey Mama's desk, I was pretty ripe!! hehehe STINKY MINKEY.  lol

Colene tried to cover it with some Minkey/Man cologne, but the smell in the office was pretty loud! I had to go home that night and take a nice little soak in Woolite! My mama said it would make me all soft and fluffy again. And it did, so all was well in the end.

I especially liked going with a bunch of kids, cos they're really creative at fun and different stuff to do. I'm looking forward to the next trip with the Hightowers. They always get great pics, too. I think it's mostly Colene that takes the creative pics. She's a real artistic lady.

I have to go now ..... getting ready for my next trip TO ALASKA!!! I have a really pretty Alaskan parka that Minkey Mama bought me for the trip. I hope it will be warm enough for a little monkey who's supposed to live in the tropics!

Whoooooooo Hooooooooo! I can't wait to go crusin again. They always have buffets and bars with bananas and other fruits the Mink loves, and best of all, they have banana dacquiris. Hopefully, the lady and her husband who are taking me there, will let me sneak a drink or two. We'll see. This lady was Minkey Mama's boss at another job and now they work at the same company again. She's one of my mom's most favorite people in the world!

Gotta run and start packing and see if they have some bear and moose repellant at the stores!

Later, peeps!
