Rick joins The Song of Norway in San Juan 1990. He quickly works his way through the ranks on ships and eventually goes to the shore-side office, but continued to spend time aboard. He tells stories about Brad, has an unexpected meet up on land with Spike, brings out the Rhapsody from France, has a nightmare cruise bringing the Sovereign out of dry-dock, golfing in Casablanca, an over-night in Marrakesh, and another wild night in St. Petersburg.
