Paste Magazine: Mayercraft Carrier, ahoy!

Sun, Feb 03, 2008 by rachael

Greetings from the severely overpriced internet cafe in the Greek vase-bedecked Ionian Room of the good ship Carnival Victory aka the Mayercraft Carrier! Among all the various things that the fine Carnival people don’t want you to do-- throw your cigarette butts overboard (there are signs everywhere), go hungry (there is food everywhere, at all times of day, and it’s free), save lounge chairs for friends (people do it anyway)-- using the internet is apparently right up there. This place is like the Bermuda Triangle. I’ve been on the boat since Friday afternoon; it’s Sunday now, and I just now figured out where it was. But give me a break-- everything is teal and shiny with names that reference ancient mythology! I can’t even find my own cabin half the time. Pretty sure I saw a Minotaur lurking around here somewhere.

Though strange and amazing stories abound, with internet so scant it looks like the rest of Paste’s Mayercraft envoys and I will have to wait until we’re back on dry land to blog about it all.

Till then-- peace, love & sunblock! (No severe burnage yet, we’re happy to report.)
