The Purple shall rule! "We went outside on the pool deck where the Sailing away party was about to start. The vibe was amazing, everyone had a drink in their hand, sitting inside or on the side of the pool, some catching up on a tan others hiding from the sun under an umbrella with a long island ice tea in hand. Me…I’m popping motion sickness pills as I am scared of the feeling of being sick, nothing can be worse and it will definitely spoil my day. After a while when I was ready to go, I got my first cosmo and joined the party. The most beautiful girls popped out and danced in sailor wear. They call themselves “The All Stars Dancers”. It is actually unfair how hot they are. Anyway, the guys appreciated that, good for them. There were enough good talent on the ship to keep the ladies entertained and satisfied." Chirandza
