CRUISE SHIP TOWEL MONKEY 🐒
Towel art is practiced by cruise ship cabin stewards all over the world. We liked this one so much; we left it hanging for the entire trip. 😄 There was a different animal every day. Read more: (right-click to open in new tab)

This is the first time I’ve seen a towel folded that way, and I’ve never been on a cruise. Looks like fun.
Debbie, the towel art was very cool. I’ve been on three cruises and never had a steward do that and I’d have saved that towel monkey too. 🙂 You’ve been to some unique places and always managed to capture a unique picture for that place – the lampshade is a really a novel idea.
Deb, what a fun post! I love your little travel tours. And I enjoyed hopping over to your Barcelona post and watching Flamenco vid. Thanks for your fun tours. <3
I LOVE the towel art, Debbie! Someone just shared their seal towel from their Alaska cruise—weird that I’ve seen two in two days. See how the universe works? I like that tiled frog or gecko, too! Seems like artists create some very oddball sculptures. That lamp is crazy, thanks for sharing your oddballs with us this week!
That was a lot interesting and weird things. It is terrible how it was in medieval times with pillars of shame and public humiliation. It is one of the many reasons I think mid-evil times is a good misspelling for that time period. I think the Vigeland Sculpture Park in Oslo, Norway is pretty weird. We were there last week.
Haha – yes. “Mid-evil” is an appropriate term to describe the Middle Ages. 😀 Sculpture parks are so interesting!
I have no clue what that is or represents. Yes, those sculptures are suggestive but I like them. I love Gaudi and hope to see his one day.
The seaside sculptures certainly are interesting. I read Sicily has several of these scattered about. 🙂 Gaudi’s style was so unique! The cathedral is a jaw-dropping sight in person. I hope you get the chance to see it, Birgit.
Great choices, Debbie. Parc Guell is one of my favourite places.
Best wishes, Pete.
Thanks, Pete! 🙂 We loved Park Güell, as well as the entire city of Barcelona.
The wildest and weirdest thing I’d see would probably be my own dogs since I rarely leave the house anymore. Back in the days when I traveled a lot by car, I never went looking for strange things, so it was always fun to be driving through a place like Minnesota and see the Jolly Green Giant towering over the farmland. Or driving down an interstate in Alabama and passing the Oscar Meyer Wienermobile. =)
Dogs can be goofy and provide lots of entertainment. 😀 It would be fun to see the Green Giant statue and the wiener mobile. I love road trips! 🙂
