The Fleet Report and Daily for Saturday June 25th, 2022
rafinmd replied to richwmn's topic in Holland America Line
Thank you Rich for the Saturday report. I'll pass on both the Catfish and the Bartenders but log cabins have a great place in our history. I don't think I've been to Guaymas. I'm not a fan of sloppy joe but turkey sounds like the best choice to put in it. My alternative menu suggestion is Fruit Salad with Yogurt and Honey, and Turkey Roast with Giblet Gravy and Cranberry as served on MS Prinsendam May 26, 2015. Today’s care list: HAL Sailer DH Nephew Curt with serious mowing accident and continuing complications Melinda with stage 4 cancer Tana with new pneumonia Sam suffering Covid complications 1Angelcat doctor runaround JazzyV leg infection Heartgrove brother recovering from PEG insertion Covid in Durango shelter staff Kazu first anniversary without Jose From the rotation: Cruising-along niece awaiting a kidney Bennybear DH with melanoma 1Angelcat’s Jaguar with untreatable cancer StLouisSal with weakening legs and covid Celebrations and Shoutouts: USN59-79 relief from macular degeneration drug jayhawk66 in NC Mountains beating the heat New Camila photo StLouisCruisers DH finally free Marshhawk good diabetes report Relief for Grapau27 from steroid shot 7 days for ski ww (Oosterdam July 2 to 16) 6 days for me (QM2 July 1 to 😎 1 day for jimgev (Noordam to 7/3 plus land trip) Bon Voyage Crazy for Cats (Zaandam to 7/9) Welcome home VMAX StLouisCruisers, Red Haired Lady and kb4683(Island Princess to 6/29) and Norseh2o (Insignia to 7/4) at sea Vacationing Staff Captain Sabine - Our first female Staff Captain and HAL’s likely first female Captain(I know this is a repeat but she’s worth it) Roy- 126 replies

I've used and enjoyed it but I think it's very high in sodium. Roy -

I also heard on the news today that BA workers have called for a strike this summer. Have you heard anything about that? Roy -

Thank you for the TGIF report, Rich. No dog and not really work to take one to anyway. Fairies are a myth with a great history. Interesting that there's a food truck day. Many Methodist related churches are using "Food Truck Party" as their theme for Vacation Bible School this year. Love the Chamfort quote. I know I've been to Alter Do Chao on the Prinsendam. Will pass on the fish head curry. My alternative is Chilled Lingonberry Soup and Prime Rib of Beef au Jus as served on MS Prinsendam May 25, 2015. Today’s care list: HAL Sailer DH Nephew Curt with serious mowing accident and continuing complications StLouisCruisers DH in Covid jail another day Melinda with stage 4 cancer Tana with new pneumonia Sam suffering Covid complications Heartgrove brother recovering from PEG insertion Covid in Durango shelter staff Kazu first anniversary without Jose From the rotation: Bennybear DH with melanoma 1Angelcat’s Jaguar with untreatable cancer StLouisSal with weakening legs and covid Cruzin Terri with continuing hand problems Celebrations and Shoutouts: Welcome home Dobiemom jayhawk66 in NC Mountains beating the heat Happy birthday StLouisCruisers DD and SharoninAZ New home prospects for Tika Slow improvement for buddy Cruising-along visit from DGS’s 7 days for me (QM2 July 1 to 😎 1 day for Crazy for Cats (Zaandam 6/25 to 7/9) Welcome home Lady Hudson VMAX (Oosterdam to 6/25), StLouisCruisers, Red Haired Lady and kb4683(Island Princess to 6/29) and Norseh2o (Insignia to 7/4) at sea Vacationing Staff Captain Sabine - Our first female Staff Captain and HAL’s likely first female Captain(I know this is a repeat but she’s worth it) Roy- 129 replies

It's New England and Canada. July 3: Bar Harbor July 4: Boston till after midnight July 6: Halifax July 8: New York It's part of a string of cruises that starts with a TA from Southampton and returns to Southampton when I get off. I'll at least do a thread on the Cunard forum. Roy- 128 replies

It will be on the Cunard Forum. I have many days (mostly transatlantics) on QM2 and love it. This cruise, however is pretty close to free as I was booked Sydney to New York in March-April 2020 (guess how that turned out) and this will be using credits from that cancelled trip. Roy- 128 replies

A couple of new developments for me. We discussed Luggage Forward a while ago. Yesterday I dropped off my bag for my July 1 QM2 cruise at the UPS store.(I get my mail there anyway and it is easier for me than planning to be home for the pickup), It has already been delivered to their agent's office in Brooklyn so they are VERY conservative in getting bags to the port on time. Yesterday evening I had a voicemail from the Baltimore Symphony with advance notice that one of the concert series I'm subscribed to has been cancelled for the upcoming season. Apparently, this is a very recent development and I will need to make some painful adjustments there. Roy- 128 replies

@Vict0riann I would suggest a PCR test as it's generally more reliable than the antigen test. I THINK the exception is after an infection where the PCR test can stay positive for quite a while while an antigen test goes back to negative right away. Roy- 128 replies
