It was actually a LOT of fun, was my first (and so far only) cruise, and the goths were all lots of fun. It was especially amusing when a group of about 30 of these people all crowded into the one outdoor hot tub that was in the shade. We dubbed it "Goth Soup". I believe I have a picture of that somewhere.<br /><br />What you CAN'T see well from this picture, but see a hint of, is that everyone else on the ship crowded around the balconies to see what the hell was going on. Too funny!<br /><br />Oh yeah, and Rocky Horror DID occur on this trip. As did karaoke, which was doubly fun when the goths mixed with the regular folks.Packgroghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16373995484417664747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1206469198146638173.post-14254672070207575202009-06-17T07:15:26.329+01:002009-06-17T07:15:26.329+01:00It's the Acapulco Lounge on the Love Boat.
