Sorry for what you and your family are going through GP2.  Will keep y'all in my prayers.

Filed my federal and state income taxes last Saturday online.  Received federal refund a couple of hours ago.  I think this is the fastest I have ever received a refund.

Happy belated birthday Slainte57.

Hi...I'm Sherry...I've been lurking.

 

I thought I would share a photo of a Prosciutto and Spinach Pizza I made 2 nights ago.

 

 

Hi Sherry --  The pizza as a whole looks delicious but that crust looks amazing.  Wish I had the talent.  Have tried to do homemade pizza dough but never seems to work out. 

Saw this in an email I received from a recipe site I follow.

Greenpea2 -- prayers for you and your Dad. Hoping for good results for your Dad.

jbhcw - prayers for you and Frank also. You are in an unimaginable (until the virus) situation.

Prayers and hugs to all that have loved ones in harms way due to the unprecedented times we are in.  The Tribe is always here if you just need to vent or talk.

Wish I had scenery like this.  Very beautiful!  Thanks for posting.

This was my dinner around 2am cdt.  Bowl of chicken and andouille gumbo.

This mornings journey took me to Target, where I ran across what's widely considered to be the Holy Grail of disinfecting products... The three pack of Clorox wipes...

 

Good for you Sid.  I was finally able to get enough food from Walmart grocery pickup.  Unfortunately due to very recent medical diagonosis I don't feel safe going into stores looking for cleaning supplies which I really need.  Just have to take my chances I guess.

I was wondering how you made out.  Thanks for coming back and letting us know.  Be well.  

Trying again tomorrow.  I am trying.

I placed a sizable order (for 1 person) with Walmart and online order showed most of what I wanted available.  No pickup times were available for Wednesday so I got a Thursday afternoon store pickup.  Will be interesting what I actually receive.  Mostly need ground beef, chicken, pasta, and pasta sauces. 

Well, picked up Walmart grocery order Thursday and received abaout 1/3 of what I ordered.  No ground beef or other red meat, no pasta or sauce but did get boneless chicken breasts so at least some protein to eat.  Guess I will keep trying pickup orders as I do not feel safe going inside as compromised as my health is.

I feel the pain af all who are being adversely affected by this horrible event directly or through their families.  Prayers and hugs to all. We will find a way to get through this.   Rick

My husband went through heart failure in 2016 and had an aortic valve replacement 2018. He is recovered but dealing with different, unrelated issues now. My thoughts and prayers are with you that this pandemic will sweep through quickly so you can get this taken care of soon.

 

Hugs to you. ❤

 

 

nopedmom -  Thanks for your thoughts and prayers....it helps knowing people care and your hug is appreciated.

 jbhcw- thanks for your thoughts.  We are all in for some interesting times.  And yes it is getting to be too much to absorb.

cruiser147147, so sorry you are going through this. (((Hugs)))

luvcruising -- hugs are appreciated

Thanks GP2.  Just have to play the cards the big guy deals me.  Have been up all night (as usual) so going to try to get some sleep.  Goodnight. 

I placed a sizable order (for 1 person) with Walmart and online order showed most of what I wanted available.  No pickup times were available for Wednesday so I got a Thursday afternoon store pickup.  Will be interesting what I actually receive.  Mostly need ground beef, chicken, pasta, and pasta sauces.  Have plenty of TP and paper towels on hand.  Buy them by the case when on sale. We shall see on Thursday (was supposed to have an angiogram Thursday but procedure was cancelled by the hospital.  Was recently diagnosed with congestive heart failure and a bad aortic heart valve.  He$$ of a time for this to happen. Don't think I have ever been this scared in my lifetime.  Life is a b...h.)

Just now, itf said:

 

Just the generic customer services email - they were perfectly good about it and responded in ~48 hours each time providing me the documents I needed for insurer.

Thanks for the reply

itf --  THANKS for taking the time to update us.

Could you please post the name of the NCL department you dealt with.

Do you have a link to a news article or was it just on tv...I searched and didn’t find anything. Also, what ports denied the encore since they just left Miami on Sunday and their first stop isn’t until San Juan later today...

Just on TV.

Which ports and which dates?

I now believe the TV mixed up 2 separate incidents as it is now clear that Encore has not missed any ports.  I should know better than to believe what is shown on TV.

No paper work generated when you purchase. You should receive an email within about 5 days of end of cruise confirming your purchase.  Also, you can log into your account on NCL.COM and under My Account, your Cruisenext certificates should be listed.

marktwothousand - Saw a news report on TV that one very disgruntled passenger basically lost it and created a melay.  He was upset over all the ports/countries refusing to let the Encore dock due to possible coronavirus infections on board and that passengers were not being kept up to date by Encore.

Happy birthday Ceilidh1

Thanks for your response.

Ok. I was aware of the Nationwide policies that @klfrodo referred to. Who else offers missed port coverage? I would love to take a look at another policy that covers missed ports as the Nationwide policies do not offer this coverage in Florida and eight other states.

Jersey42 -

You are not providing any relevant information to the original post. I can not answer your question until I get an answer to my original question and this plays out a lot further.  As I stated in post number 11  ("Not even sure a claim to my trip insurance will garner me any compensation but its worth a shot if I can figure out how to get documented proof my cruise missed a scheduled port due to high winds and could not dock.")  I will not discuss this any further until I have a resolution.  I asked for an answer to  specific questions and apparently no one knows the answer so I may never be able to answer the question you asked.  If I get an answer and then a resolution, I will post outcome but I expect this to be a drawn out process as anything involving NCL is.

Not Nationwide.
