I was also on this cruise. Thank you for filling in some of the gaps in my memory.
I was with a group from Sir Adam Beck Secondary School in London, Canada. At fifteen, I was the youngest in my group and was treated at times like the group mascot!
One of my favourite memories is our dorm's decision to get the lowest scores for housekeeping. We were soon set straight by Actionman.
The guys in my group were also famous/infamous/notorious for singing very loudly on our way downstairs to the cafeteria. This way the galley crew would know we were coming and get the fresher food ready for us. In case you couldn't tell, teenage Canadian boys will eat just about anything, and are willing to act like fools if there is the likelihood of extra portions.
