Ch. 40 – Final day of the cruise

Thursday morning we docked in Falmouth Jamaica, our plans were to get a bite to eat, get some rum, chill out, and hit some shops.  This was our last full day on our cruise, the ship was not in the port the entire day, just until 5:00 PM and then we would sail the evening into overnight to make it back Friday morning.

We got up early, got changed and dressed and got off the ship after a quick bite at the buffet.  We did not see Kyle, Susan and their kids.  I figured they must still be sleeping, as we were walking off the ship at barely 9:30.

We took some great photos of the port, the street performers, walked around a bit more then settled at one of the many beach venues that had entertainment.  We sat and munched on appetizers for a bit before ordering lunch.  Then on the way back stopped and got some souvenirs for family and friends.

“Ok, did you two want to do anything else in the port, or did you want to get back on the ship? Go to the beach or something else?” Max asked

“I don’t know, how about we get some coffee and just sit for a few, we’ve been go go go all day” Riley said.

Knowing that when Riley said he was exhausted, that the need to rest was important, as the last thing we wanted to have happen was a seizure, and they can sometimes happen when he is stressed, overheated  or exhausted.  Plus he was right.

“Just not Starbucks, we have that crap back home.  There is a local coffee roaster up the street.” Max said

We went in and ordered and then took our drinks outside to a table and watched people and talked.

“So this is our last night on the cruise, anything that you two want to do tonight?  We get off tomorrow, and don’t fly home until Saturday, so anything you want to do down there when we get back?” I said

“I really can’t think of anything off the top of my head.” Said David  “Wonder why we did not see James and Tyler today, I have not heard anything from them all day on my phone.”

“I don’t know buddy, maybe they had plans for today, ya know.  This coffee is very good, we are going to need to get a couple pounds of it to take home” Max said

“So what all is planned for this season at the campground?” David asked

“Well as you know the lodge bunkhouse is coming along nice.  They finally got the electric and sewer done back there, a well drilled and the road was just graveled in according to dad.  We are still waiting on the smaller cabins, but for now we are going to put the concrete pads like we would have for RV’s with full hookups.  If everything is good we may move one or both of our RV’s back there.  Since it is truly secluded it can be used for private events and groups.”

“That sounds like a great place for fun times” Riley said

It was about 3PM and we had been off the ship for a decent amount of time.  We decided to head back to the ship and get changed and relax.  After clearing security at the port and then again when we got back on the ship, made our way towards the elevators to make it to our suite.

We were walking through the atrium and ran into Tyler and James who were just hanging around.  We told the teens that we would meet them back in the suite, but not to be too long.

“Whats up!? Been trying to text ya.” Riley said

“Yeah, mom and dad have been fighting and they took our phones” James said

“Yeah mom is only interested in being cordial with your brother and his boyfriend because they have money, she’s attracted to people with money because she thinks it will make her feel important.  Dad and us told her off, and that started a fight and she took our phones. They’re probably getting sloshed in the bars” Tyler said

“You know we have known for a couple years that Jason had money, but it has never dawned on us just how much, as he really does not flash it around.  He’s just like that cool brother who is always nice to us and invites us on fun trips.” David said

“Are they pissed about you two wearing diapers, maybe we should not have offered you to try them on.” Riley asked

“No they were fighting the whole trip on and off. The diapers were probably just the cherry on top. I don’t give a rats ass what they do, but this vacation was supposed to be fun and those 2, mainly mom just ruin everything.” James said

“Well we need to get back to our room, hope to see you guys at dinner tonight.”  David said as they headed back to the suite.

“Can you imagine being so materialistic like their mom is?” Riley said

“Yeah it sucks, to only be nice to somebody because they have money and it helps you feel like you are better than other people.” David said

The boys had came back to the suite as Max and I were sitting on the sofa taking in the views.  When they told us what Tyler and James had said about Susan, we both laughed.

“Yeah boys, there are people like that, which is why we don’t flaunt that Jason is actually my sugar daddy” Max said laughing.

“Hell I met Max and spent a whole week on a cruise with him, and then texted back and forth for another week and still did not let on that I had any money other than what I had made doing YouTube videos” I said  “It was almost 6 months before I had even told my parents how much it was that I won, and even now I really don’t think they know, I just leave it at ‘enough that I am comfortable to not have to worry for a long time’, which is all anybody should ever know”

At dinner that night it was only Tyler and James who joined us, they said their parents decided to go to the expensive Asian restaurant and be by themselves.  They thought that Tyler and James would just settle for the buffet, but they showed up for dinner on time.

After dinner the six of us went back to our suite and hung out while the 4 of us started packing up what we could.  We still needed clothes and diapers for the rest of the night and for tomorrow before we got off the ship.  Of course David and Riley sent Tyler and James away with several more diapers along with where to order more, along with their contact information and our info about the campground.

We stayed in the suite and got to bed early after putting our luggage tags on the bags and putting them outside the door for pickup.

The next morning we got to the buffet for breakfast before 9 am and saw Tyler and James and Kyle waiting for us. 

“It was so nice meeting you 4 this week, sorry that my wife could not join us, she was out a bit too late last night” Kyle said

“No, she is hung over from closing down the bars” James said

“Sorry for our personal drama creeping into your vacation, we thought this would be a nice vacation to maybe mend things, but I think it did the opposite.  Listen I could give 2 shits less about the boys wanting to wear diapers, if it makes them happy.  My wife on the other hand is all about her status and reputation and just cannot think about anybody but herself.”  Kyle said, stopping as the boys came back from their second trip to the buffet.

“Hey it’s ok, we all got drama, it makes things interesting.  Like I said you should come and stay a weekend at the campground sometime.  We open in 2 weeks and are open until the last weekend in October” Max said

We parted ways and headed back to the suite and grabbed our last luggage and bags and headed off the ship into customs.  Holy cow did we have a lot to declare, coffee, alcohol, souvenirs and more.  We headed out of the terminal and there was a waiting SUV for us.

David and Riley had not really wanted to do anything in particular that Friday, so we drove near the airport and got a hotel and then went over to Universal City Walk and meandered around for a bit before heading back to the hotel after dinner.
