waking up on day 2 was not an easy task but we had places to go and backstreet boys to see!!!...and it didnt hurt that we already docked in the bahamas...that little fact totally added to the excitement of the big day we had ahead of us!!!
Beach Party
we kinda planned on meeting our friends at the beach since we were in different departure groups and didnt really know how crazy it would be getting off the ship...but as luck would have it we all ended up getting off the ship at the same time so we were able to get on the bus over to the beach part together...and i use the term bus very loosely...it was more like a shuttle van...but the thing that made it great was the seats that folded out into the aisle...i cant say that ive ever seen that before...haha!
beads...yay!! |
no beads...boo! |
howie brian aj and nick came out onto the stage full of energy...they were throwing out beads...5 girls in our group managed to get one (myself not included...boo!)...everyone was pretty excited and amped up then the moment we were all waiting for happened...kevin came out!!!! eeeekkkk!!!...let me tell you, i was way more excited than i thought i would be...the 5 boys proceeded to play some fun games with some extremely lucky fans...kevin seemed to fit right back in with them...when he went on oprah with them he seemed out of place but at the beach party it was like he belonged there...the best part of the whole beach party had to be when they sang safest place to hide acapella...that moment was magical!...the day went by quickly and before i knew it we had to get back to the ship to get ready for the nights festivities...
Concert
for this oh so special concert we were asked to vote on our fav songs...this was pretty cool because i knew we would get to hear songs that they normally dont sing...but what i wasnt expecting was awesome remix versions of songs we do hear all the time...i absolutely LOVED the incomplete remix!!!...another song that i LOVED was dont want you back...that one should have been a single...its soo good!!!...i also like that we didnt here ill never break your heart or quit playing games (dont get me wrong i love both songs but they always sing those)...i could have done without i want it that way (but you all know that already...haha!)...i liked that even though they had the some lyrics printed out and taped to the stage and nick still forgot the words to if i knew then...i liked all the chit chatting the did between songs...and finally i love love love that brian and aj did the hat dance!!!!...my loyal readers may remember that the lack of the hat dance was my biggest problem with the this is us tour...
what happened next was the encore that tops all encores...the crowd was going crazy, chanting, screaming, making just about any noise possible...then 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 backstreet boys walked out on stage...when i realized what was happened little sis and i grabbed onto each other and proceeded to jump up and down screaming like we've never screamed before...i felt like i was on an episode of oprah's favorite things (or an snl parody making fun of the over excited audience!...haha!)...that reaction was def unexpected...the 5 of them sang drowning (which is the song i listed as missing kev the most in...i wonder if thats because its the only one howie doesnt take his solo...hmmm...haha!)...words cant really express how amazing that moment was!!!...so ill leave you with this video...
thanks to anne marie for the awesome video!!
Prom Night
the activities for the evening were very promy...they each crowned a prom queen...then they had a first dance...nick and howie didnt take the first dance seriously at all...nick was all over the place with his queen...and howie, oh howie!, howie was doing the dirty dancing lift with his queen...but not just him lifting her...she was also lifting him...very funny!!!...they also played fun prom songs like cha cha slide and the electric slide...nick didnt know the electric slide...(big surprise!...haha!)...he said the only reason brian and kevin knew it was because theyre from kentucky...my response to that was "um...jersey girl here and i can electric slide with the best of them!"...haha!...so its just another example of simple things (like family feud) that nick has no knowledge of...haha!...
i had a blast at prom night...at about 330 kev had to leave because he had an early morning flight to catch...so when he was leaving little sis and 4 of my friends were able to get a picture with him!!! (again myself not included and again boo!!!)...haha!!!...after kev left i lasted about another hour...howie was still out there going strong...that party animal showed no signs of stopping...i wanted to stay but i just couldnt...my feet were killing me...i dont think they ever hurt so bad in my intire life...so back to the cabin i went...

I seriously laughed out loud with your comment: "i felt like i was on an episode of oprah's favorite things" because I too envision that SNL skit and felt the EXACT same way when Kevin came...even the parody version.
Can't wait to read the rest of your review!!
Thanks for all the Shout outs! And I loved your reaction to kev coming it on stage for drowning. I also loved your Billy Flynn mention bc that's what I was thinking the whole night!
