Cruise Update - one week to go!

I'm trying not to completely obsess about the cruise! But I admit that I feel like I think about it ALL THE TIME! lol

The buildup has been a lot of fun for Maria and I as well. Part of the fun has been the shopping! It seems like a new box from Amazon has been arriving almost every day for the last two weeks. New pants and shirts for me. New dresses, lingerie, and thongs for Maria. Toys, lube, and a 50 pack of condoms!

There is also now a very active group message board on SLS. One of the pieces of advice we read was to plan things in advance. Make dates. Because one you're on board there are so many people there, and no cell and internet, it can be hard to make plans at that point. So we took matters into our own hands. I noticed that several couples had put up what their fantasy was on the message board. Our fantasy? To have an orgy with a bunch of couples in the group area under the stars.

We put up a message and soon enough started to get responses. A couple of weeks later and we're up to 14 couples who have said they would like to join us. OMG. We're assuming we'll meet more couples during the meet and greets and on board. We also assume there will be a bit of a viral thing going on. Wow...  So next Tuesday night we hopefully will be in the middle of an huge orgy! One of our all time fantasies.

One of the things we still think about however is the fact that this could be a total disaster. We could be both barfing the entire time with sea sickness. We bought patches and another med that we can put under our tongues. Our fingers are crossed! We've also read that the big boats with their stabilizers and all are no problem.

In the past week another development has been the KiK group chat. KiK seems to be the chat app of choice among swingers these days and someone set up a group chat. It's been fun to be honest. We've been asking questions, chatting, and teasing each other for a week or so now. Couples have been posting pix and we've set up some private chats as well. The internet is so awesome sometimes! It seems like over the past few weeks we've been texting/chatting/emailing with one or two or three new couples every night. It's getting to be a little much. We're only going to be on the boat for 5 days!

So we have a list already of a bunch of couples and people we want to meet. This whole this is so exciting! Still don't know how exactly it will all play out.

Oh...  we also found out that it looks like there's a Meet and Greet at the hotel we're staying at the night before the cruise. We weren't expecting that. I've also been talking to one couple in particular who seem to have a lot of mutual "interests". They're staying at the same hotel as us and are planning on going to the Meet and Greet. So it looks like things might very well begin almost as soon as we get down there. Fly down. Get to the hotel and check in. Go to the Meet and Greet and let the fun begin!

I'm trying not to get too nervous/freak out about this!

I was telling Maria that I haven't felt like this about "swinging" since we first started. I feel like a newbie again with the expectation of what's going to happen? It's so exciting to think about!
