Dale and I just returned from a relaxing, yet fun filled cruise. It was planned at least nine months ago but I didn’t let Dale in on it until two weeks ago as a surprise and to keep our anxiousness levels down.

As we began to get settled in our room he went to draw back the curtain to admire the view. To his surprise, there was no view. Turns out they have curtains up but it’s a foe window, we were in an inside cabin.

It’s been about 15 years since his last cruise and since he has some sensory issues I thought an inside cabin would be best. Well, to my surprise, he pulled that curtain back and all I heard was “WHAT THE WHAT?!?!” I turn around to see Dale looking at a wall hidden behind a curtain.

He was thoroughly confused by the “fake” window, as he called it, and totally didn’t see the point. The funniest part of it all was we went to see the comedy show that night and the funniest joke was about people’s reaction when they pull that curtain back and….ta da….it’s a wall. We both looked at each other when he told the joke and said in unison, “WHAT THE WHAT?!?!” LOL!!!!
