Yesterday a Celebrity Cruise ship sailed from Vancouver under a rainbow flag. It was the annual gay men cruise to Alaska and I'm here to tell you that they are a fun crowd to deal with. A friend and I were discussing whether we would sail with the gay men on Celebrity or the "blue hairs" of the other ship that sailed.
"I'd go with the men" I said, and it kinda baffled him.
To me it was a no brainer and I compared the two ships.
The blue hairs are sailing on the SS God's Waiting Room. They walk slow through narrow hallways. The smell old. They wear black socks with shorts. They eat slow and they mumble a lot.
The gay men are sailing on the SS Dance Until You Drop. They strut. They wear good cologne. The discos are 100 times better. They insist on better food AND they have CHARO for entertainment two shows a night!
The only down thing for me about sailing with a group of about 500 gay men from all over the world is that I would have to dress nicer than I usually do.
So there I was joking with all the guys as they came up in pairs. Then a group of five stood before me.
"What's going on guys?" I said.
"Oh, we're a group of five" one responded.
I put a horrified look on my face and said, "POLYGAMISTS!!!"
You've never heard five guys laugh louder.
What a day.
The lesbian cruise goes in August or September.

no pics. sorry. you have to wait until gay pride in August. LOTS of people come up from San Fran to the Vancouver party because they say San Fran has just gotten too big.
sure. any cruise that doesn't have blue hairs.
last year the lesbian cruise had Mary Chapin Carpenter and some speakers who sounded interesting.
my wife however, would not go on either.
