HIT ME, HIT ME AGAIN

.......as said in the game of blackjack...on a cruise ship.

John and I are the only two who wander into the ship's casino every night after the show. John likes three card poker, which I can't afford with a $10 ante....and I play blackjack, minimum bet $3.


Now, on day one I met Carlos. Carlos was born in Morocco, but lives in Quebec. We like playing blackjack together and bring each other good luck. Carlos also likes the fact that I have a French name......some men are so shallow! Last night Carlos' wife Marilyn happened to show up. She's a beautiful woman, and seemed friendly enough but, after I took this picture of her and Carlos, Carlos asked her to take a picure of him with ME.....she said she didn't know how to use my camera...hmmmm.

Now, these are two other "regulars" who play at the same table every night. Chase is from Arizona, and Franklin is from Australia. They are both funny and they don't have jealous wives....that I know of.


One of my favorite dealers is Francisco...he lets me win..sometimes. So there you have a mini update from last night. I still have a few hours left to wander around Skagway, and take some pictures before the ship leaves port. I will post again as soon as I can....probably not until Saturday, which is when we dock in Whittier. Now, I can read your comments, and comment back from my blackjack phone, but I can't update the blog.
