Ok, here goes.....
I open my eyes to find myself having a blast on a party cruise
Lots of amazing ‘scenery’
Then all of a sudden the water starts getting choppy…
The ship starts to get tossed around
And eventually goes down
Luckily I manage to grab one of these.
Even though I really was tempted to grab these instead..
I drift all night and in the morning I wake up here..
Somehow I manage to have this strapped to my wrist. I figured the Emergency beacon would come handy if a plane comes close by.
But that said I couldn’t leave this one behind either. Hey if it was good enough across the Arctic for Mike Horn, its damn well good enough for my dream… Plus it’s a sexy looking watch..
Fortunately I also managed to stuff a bag full of goodies before the ship went down.
I reach inside and i first find my Ipod
But unfortunately most of the songs were wiped with the water damage.
Fortunately these two songs are still on it.
Eagles – Hotel California
Bob Marley – Could you be loved
Also in my bag is one of my favorite movies (Lord of the Rings). It’s the extended trilogy so it should take up a lot of my time for those nights I get bored..
And lucky enough 1 book about Survival
I also have this photograph of my niece and I. Her little smile always makes me laugh.
I look a little further into my bag and I remembered that I passed by the cruise ships kitchen before I jumped overboard. It’s a mix of things but I find a
Bottle of Grey goose for a pre dinner Martini
Some Poutine ( for those who don’t know its French fries covered in gravy and cheese)
A Porterhouse steak
And a nice bottle of wine to wash it down.
And even a chocolate cheesecake to really put me to sleep.
As I sit back and enjoy the mean I reminisce on some happier memories. Memories of friends, family and good laughs. But the one that puts the biggest smile on my face is remembering a time i was young, having sunday BBQ's with my brother, parents and the rest of my family.
I nod off to sleep with a smile and in the morning I am woken by a gentle touch..
I wasn’t the only one that grabbed a life preserver…
Looks like Adriana Lima and I won’t be watching the Lord of the Rings anytime…EVER!!!!
Best,
K
