Tomorrow we'll get up real early and go whale watching
Tuesday we'll dock in Key West and have five hours of sightseeing followed by one hour of shopping
Wednesday we'll sail to see various pre-Columbian ruins followed by four hours of scuba training
Does anyone have any questions
Danny Donkey tied his cousin to an anchor and threw him overboard
THAT WASN'T REALLY A QUESTION
DANNY'S A MAN OF FEW WORDS
NO ONE SHOULD NEED A VACATION FROM A VACATION

HOW WAS YOUR DAY, RAT?
EXHAUSTING...
WHAT HAPPENED?
THE TOILET PAPER ROLL RAN OUT, SO I HAD TO TAKE OFF THE OLD ROLL, REACH UNDER THE SINK FOR A NEW ONE, AND PUT THE NEW ONE WHERE THE OLD ONE USED TO BE.
OH. WHEN WILL ALL THE TOIL END?
I SEE.
HE DOESN'T DO A LOT OF CHORES.
AND THAT SPRING-LOADED THING COULD TAKE OUT AN EYE!

I CAN'T BELIEVE OUR CREATOR, STEPHAN PASTIS, IS MOVING IN WITH US.

HIS WIFE THREW HIM OUT OF HIS HOUSE, SO HE HAS NOWHERE ELSE TO GO. BUT DON'T WORRY. IT'LL ALL WORK OUT.
