We did many things that day, but what was mostly on our minds was the fact that JULIO was going to be dancing in the farewell show that night. I think Kelly and I were the most excited about this. We had all taken to saying Julio's name with some type of jazz hand sweeping across our face. It seemed appropriate.
I can't remember the timing of these events, but here's some of the things we did:
Paul and I had a quiet game of scrabble in the library. Every word had to be used in a sentence about Johnny O, who was giving a concert with his magic flute not very far away. I'm pretty sure I won.
We played Things in a Box with Kelly and Nate in the piano bar. It was very funny. We also sat next to the guitar player who serenaded us with "Yesterday" as we sang along.
We played some more scrabble with Kelly and Nate while eating delicious sushi:
We played some ping-pong. Nate beat me soundly. He blamed his bad playing on the crappy paddle. I blamed my bad playing on my crappy ping-pong skills.
We played some Horse. I don't recall who won. I'm pretty sure no one made a basket the entire time. YOU try making baskets on a swaying boat, if you think you're so cool.
It was the last night with our dinner waiter Erwin. We withheld his tip until he gave us the double-finger-point like Isaac from the Love Boat. He complied.
Then the moment we had all waited for.......JULIO (jazz hand now).
This is my favorite Julio video of all time. Whenever Paul gets excited about something, he yells "MAAANDI!" Just enjoy the magic that is Julio.

No touchie!
I think the reason why I love Julio so much is that he dances exactly like me.
Julio was worth the wait.
Too bad Julio didn't do this dance whilst giving life saving instructions. Now that I would go on a cruise for. and Yes Paul, your dance skills are right up there with Julio. Maybe it is the award winning legs.
Julio....julio.....JUlio!! now Paul do u already have those pants cuz if so u r set!!
im now in love with julio the life saving dancer he is so dreamy i heart julio.
That was weird how at the piano bar, the Sven guy sat at the piano and played the guitar. Crazy nuts. How would he like it if we went to his house and sat at his computer and read a book? Thats about how weird it was.
I HEART JULIO too!!!! Awesome! I think listening to Paul was pretty fun too, though!
Paul - I want proof that you can move like Julio. I just don't believe it...=D
I have sure enjoyed reading these posts! What a fun cruise!
Julio reminds me a little of the cute clapper boy at Chucky Cheese. You need to do a side by side photo of the two. Both sweeties.
The cruise looks VERY fun.
Wow. I'm glad you got some good footage of the life-saving Julio doing what he does best.
P.S. Mia asked if that was you singing in the dress. Very sexy black Mandi.
MAAANDI! GHB
Julio left me dizzy.
