Decisions
Deciding on a business idea from scratch i find, is no easy feat, especially when it’s a work from home idea..... I’ve been interested in working radio. Been dabbling in community radio over the years and internet radio as well. Both have provided me with a lot of joy in learning a passion I have followed, alongside a bit of tertiary education (not much) just a bit.....but, then I thought, is this where I really want to go or am I still to remain passionate about these forms of broadcasting or should I look at podcasting?

A new senior, The HD nightmare & lab parties gone wrong
My senior Rich only had one cruise left and his replacement (yet another Canadian videog) Jason was on a cruise early for a handover as he'd been off work for a while to get married and we were in the midst of beginning the transition to HD onboard. Looking back it showed the company had no idea what HD was or how to implement it, but at the time there was a still an emerging format war between HD DVD & Blu-ray with neither established yet. Although we were eager to get to grips with the new technology we couldn't actually produce HD-DVD or Bluray content beecause we didn't have HD replication burners or even the software to master HD DVD's onboard.

Burrito challenge, Chileno Bay snorkelling & more tequila!
It had only been one spectacularly busy week but I was loving life on the Sapphire despite the terrible sales and lack of sleep, but like the cliche says you work hard, you play hard and most of the crew just found another gear on the Sapphire with its busy 7 day run.

2020, Chapter Two
As I’m writing this now, it is early December. Almost Christmas. One of my favorite movies to watch at this time of year is “A Christmas Story.” I’ve watched it every year at Christmas since 1991. Those of you who have watched it; you know how the story goes, so I’m not going to write out a detailed review. But towards the end of the movie, after the gifts have all been unwrapped and Ralphie narrowly avoids shooting his eye out with his newly acquired BB gun… they’re all getting ready to eat a home-cooked Christmas dinner when the narrator who tells Ralphie’s story delivers this line.

No Sleep Till LA:My first cruise on the Sapphire - Part 2:Days off at Joes Oyster bar, Eastern European exploitation and selling 9 DVD's!
As I mentioned in the last chapter we crammed an absolute ton of tours and events into a week cruise on the Sapphire and around the midway point I had my first tour in Cabo which was a glass blowing factory and tour of the coast, looking back the camera work isn't too bad but I wish I'd had time to get some commentary on how the process worked. For the 2nd part of the tour we visited a church and some beaches to get some scenic shots and there was a lot cactuses! I'm fairly happy with the above video and it holds up fairly well for being 11 years old, I've got some good close ups of the local fauna but I hate the music!

No sleep till LA:My first cruise on the Sapphire: Part 1
Our 7 day cruise would start from LA, but a fairly shit part of LA where there was not really many places you could get in the time you had ashore bar the now standard shuttlebus to the nearest mall. Therefore my inital excitement at being in LA once a week quickly diminished purely because we didn't have enough time to get anywhere of inportance before we had to go back to the ship. Also we were told don't go further than this block north and this block east (I think) as they were sketchy neighbourhoods, it seemed crazy to me that you could walk a few metres and be in a dangerous place.

Viva Mexico:Spring Break Madness on the Sapphire Princess!
So after a long six month break I was finally back on a ship without a promotion and also knowing I'd be doing Mexico for 2 months before transhipping when the ship went to Alaska, however after my dealings with the office I really had no faith in where I'd be going next.
