Trip Horror Stories

So before we start into our embarkation on the M.S. Carnival Fascination there are a few stories that need to be told. After all no vacation would be complete without horror stories.
Here is story #1:
The morning of embarkation we awoke in Savannah and packed our bags. We planned to walk around town, so we put our bags in the car. Since we had cold water, we decided to leave our water, snacks and cooler, and water bottles in the hotel room refrigerator while we walked. When we returned from the city and went to our room to collect our remaining belongings, they were no where to be found. House keeping had assumed we had checked out and cleared our things into the trash. While I checked us out for real, Jennie had to fish through the trash and collect both water bottles, our container of water and our cooler. Unfortunately the food and ice pack were not recoverable. I mentioned that if that was all that went wrong for the trip I would be a happy man. About two hours later my words came back to haunt me and we experienced horror story number 2.

Story #2:
Shortly before reaching the port, we decided to grab a bite to eat. We had plenty of time to make it to the ship and so we sat down and enjoyed some Subway sandwiches. We ate and left. Our remaining trip to the port was uneventful until 15 minutes later and a few miles away from the port Jennie discovered her purse missing. After an immediate u-turn and excessive speeding in a construction zone we arrived back at Subway to find that the purse was.......................
still there where she had left it. PHEW. We returned back to the port and boarded the ship without further incident.
OK. So those are pretty mild horror stories but they were rather horrible experiences at the time. It is nice now that we can laugh about them.
