Here are all of my images. I only removed the ones that didn't come out at all. I'll comment on some of them. I have around 80, so this is going to take a couple of posts. I'll post my videos later.
If anyone wants their photo removed from here and/or does NOT want it posted in the official (public) album, please PM me the photo name(s) and I'll take care of it.
Here's Lisa in our cabin. It was really small, and smelled vaguely of sewage.
Day one. Matt (M@) and Phil (Phillydude) up on Deck 11.
Outside of our ship docked in Nassau.
Me and Lisa in Nassau about to leave for our excursion to the "Breezes" resort.
"I'm George".
A bunch of us in Nassau.
Still waiting to leave for "Breezes".
Josh (jk0)!
The ship.
Finally on the shuttle to Breezes. They drive on the left in Nassau.
This is Breezes, the all-inclusive resort we spent all day Saturday exploiting. Free food and free booze all day long.
Phil trying to get us all together for a group picture. This was not as easy as it sounds.
I swear that I didn't give Matt or Josh a hard time for smoking. Honest.
Well, my group photo certainly turned out well.
Phil wanted Matt in the group photo. Matt wanted to sit and drink. Matt sat and drank.
We're finally on the beach! Here's Phil modeling his souper sexah new snorkel and mask. Oh, Matt's in these pictures somewhere...
The beautiful Atlantic in Nassau!
Phil in his Daniel Craig swimsuit. Yeah.
Phil about to James Bond his way out of the surf.
Lisa!
Phil!
Grace (BBaller) and Adam (Chicanerous)!
Roger (Bluestreak) and Tanisha (Chameleon)! By the end of the day Tanisha actually had more alcohol than blood in her body. Swear to god.
She's just getting warmed up here, folks. Wait until I get the video up.
We were pretty much at the bar every 4 or 5 minutes. Free booze and all, you know.
PhillyColada.
Day 3. We've left Nassau behind, and are now taking the shuttle boat over to CocoCay island for more booze, sun and food.
eek! i see nipple!! EDIT- pixellation saves the day.

Still on CocoCay island here...
George relaxing with some music.
Lisa reading.
George and Matt, and Phil in a hammock.
Matt, probably about to say something hilarious. He kept us in stitches all weekend.
Josh, crushing his four thousandth budweiser of the day.
Grace and Adam are two of the nicest people I've ever met. Lisa and I enjoyed a late dinner with them later on this day.
There I am. I guess Lisa took this.
A group of us.
Phil, rocking the lime green shorts.
Approaching the ship on the shuttle boat as we return from CocoCay.
This was an enjoyable experience for everyone.
Highly illogical.
Matt and Phil, back on the ship.
We drank around 10,000 Pina Coladas between us.
Sharing some funnah.
George looks on as Adam enters the Male Hot Legs contest.
Phil entered, too, hoping to upset Quadzilla.
Phil's pretty confident with his chances.
Damn, they should have had a hot back contest, too.
You can kind of see the black guy to Adam's right. That guy was pretty big, but his legs were not even close to Quadzilla's legs! Adam's path to victory seemed clear...
...but then the clouds opened up and the contest was called off (the weather, by the way, was perfect the nearly entire time--this was late on day 3, and the only rain we saw).
So they said to the all-female judges, "Just pick your favorite". One cute judge made a bee-line through the pouring rain right at Adam and hung a medal around his neck.
Phil won the "Chicken Legs" award. JSF!!!
i won a prize!
teh winnnars.
Phil, probably right after being rejected by the 200th girl in a row. I mean, I should have just kicked him in the nuts 20 times and he could have called it an early day.
I'm not feeling dejected! I'm fine!
I'll even do a little dance, right like this.
More booze on day 3.
Cheers!
Part of decks 10 & 11, which is where we spent a lot of time when we were on the ship.

Thanks John for posting all the pictures! It looked like an awesome couple of days. I thought of all you as I watched the weather each morning and read wasteland..(I almost had courage to post while you were all gone) I'm glad the weather was good! Its nice to put a face with Lisa now. She's one beautiful girl!
This cruise was easily one of the best vacations I've ever been on. It went by way too fast but there were so many good times and memories with all of you. I was totally surprised this morning when Matt and I received our sea pass bill -- turns out I will not have to sell all of my belongings to pay off the credit card! We still haven't figured out how that's even possible.

I just have to say though, I was seriously disappointed that they didn't play this song even once the entire time we were there.
I can't wait until Roger has the video from Sunday nights dinner up.... "motor boat, motor boat"

OK, here is the first of my videos (and the best): Tanisha (Chameleon) on day #2. This is at the Breezes resort at the end of the day. Tanisha is trashed. I thought we were going to have to call the medics. Seriously. She recovered nicely though. Watch the video.
