😤 Vacation Rule #36: Vacations are too short to be angry (even when the room isn’t what you booked).
🦃 48-Day Countdown: Thanksgiving in Paradise is coming—surf lesson, turkey trot, and a circle-island day are on the docket.

A cruise-ship waterslide turns into a high-seas hamster tube, America admits we vacation to the same place over and over, and the UK sets a spooky world record for most vampires in one spot. Plus: the hotel-lobby restroom rule that saves friendships, and a ticket PSA for Thanksgiving in Paradise (55 days out!).

Why hit “Play”?
🚢 Cruise Slide Chaos — Viral clip of a passenger stuck in a clear slide that juts ~11 ft off the deck and drops ~159 ft to the ocean; alleged ship ID chatter and how “escape hatches” actually work.

🧛 Spooky Season Record — 1,369 people dressed as vampires at Whitby Abbey (2022), celebrating 125 years of Dracula; strict dress code, 5-minute hold to count.
🚻 Vacation Rule #254 — “No #2s in the room.” Why the hotel lobby restroom is your friend (clean, anonymous, saves relationships).
💳 Vacation Rule #211 — Get roommates to pay their share of the hotel up front (before anyone is sunburnt…or posting bail for a new pet monkey).
🎟️ Real Tickets Only — 55-Day Countdown → Chip Chantry’s Thanksgiving in Paradise at Blue Note Waikīkī (buy via our site or Blue Note; avoid reseller markups).
