Just wondering when I should start to get worried

Maybe I missed it, but I honestly didn't see any Book Onboard offers. That's not to say there aren't any; I just didn't see any. Maybe someone else here has the answer.
I was on that cruise also. I made a mental note that there were no future cruise offers.

I am just off the Spirit. In ISP, there WAS a very large amount of people in the water. I sent a picture to my daughter remarking about the crazy people. She had been on Splendor in May and Splendor was also in ISP with us. She responded that her cruise director was in the water in my pic. She said he apparently arranges this every cruise. But back in early May, there were only like 5 participants. Last week there were more like 30-40 people in the water with a hundred or more on the beach behind the restaurant. Spirit did not have anything to do with this. Sorry.

Contrary to other opinions, I didn't think the gf mushroom pizza was all that bad, if you covered it with parm cheese and crushed red pepper

Just off the Spirit and here are my gluten free thoughts....USELESS!
I was all excited to try out the new Menu Mate for dietary allergies. The algorithms it uses are junk. Please tell me how a banana is not safe for me to eat? Oh, and the MDR lobster tail isn't safe...but the Steakhouse Selection lobster tail is? Come on! Seriously, it listed like ceasar salad, chicken breast and ice cream as the only things safe. (Exaggeration, but very small.) Whatever! So I decide to go another route and pre-order my food for the next day brunch and dinner. The MDR staff couldn't find either order. I gave up and just went with my own "gut" feelings and if I wasn't really sure, I didnt eat it.

Where is the baguette? Dining room? Deli?
Thanks

Do people eat burritos with a corn tortilla? I guess you could, but don't see that too often at least
around here(the large western state that is below Oregon and above Baja)
They do if they can't have gluten, like myself

So I am scheduled on Carnival Spirit to be in Skagway on July 17th. There are only 2 ships listed in port that day, the other being Silver Muse. Spirit is scheduled at RRF and Silver Muse at RRA. Might they possibly move us to the other ORE and BRD berths?

So I have celiac and can't have gluten. I am dining at the steakhouse the first night. Will someone in the steakhouse take my order for the next day's breakfast and dinner? Also, I am assuming that the only reason to take an advance order is if there is something that needs to be made special. Does this also mean I can't order anything "special" the first night in the steakhouse?

I scheduled mine with CVS. I think you do need symptoms or maybe exposure. It asked if I had any symptoms in the last 14 days. Of course I've had fatigue and a headache since then, so no lie!

Not sure how that works if I want a double on the rocks

Same with our CVS. I actually have been using CVS up until now but can't get a free appointment unless I lie and say I've been exposed or am having symptoms.
I just made an appointment for the 10th of July at CVS. Yeah, it asked if I have had any covid symptoms ....in the last 14 days! Well, yeah. I've been fatigued and had a headache in that timeframe. So, not lying.

Loving this. Not only beautiful and informative, but just plain fun to read. I've had a lot of laugh out louds. Keep it up, please!

...I often order the cheese platter dessert as an appetizer.
What an excellent idea! I have to be gluten free and sometimes there is just not much that interests me for appetizers

I went in July 2018 with my 27 year old daughter. Totally her trip and she planned it all. She is generally NOT a cruise lover. She grew up in Florida and went on many a Caribbean cruise, but just got plain tired of beaches. Alaska is a VERY different cruise and experience. She and I had an amazing time! The scenery just... never...gets...old! Oh, and we had an inside cabin.

I did Norwegian in July 2018 and we got real up close and personal, I thought.

I think my favorite part of the cruise was riding through Tracy arm outside with my hat, gloves, jacket all off. It felt great!
That was also the favorite part for all three Alaska cruises for both my daughter and me. Wasn't it cool how the naturalist described the eons of history you were passing through by the plantlife, trees, lychen, etc?
I am scheduled for this excursion, BUT...mine is at 7:00am! Not too excited about the time, but it was the only option. Cold at that hour? Still excited I was able to book it a all though.

Man, I am getting really nervous about my July 13 Spirit sailing. Nervous about me or my boyfriend catching covid and not being able to go. But also nervous that they will change the rules again or even cancel cruises

We sail On Spirit in a few weeks, so interested in any other observations you can offer. Thanks for posting!
Same! We sail July 13. Can't wait, but getting really concerned about these spiking Covid numbers onboard the ships...

Maybe but doubt it. I was in the front row of the plane. Nobody seemed sick. I’m not the only one. A lot of people from my cruise have it. It’s hanging right around 30% of people who have responded.Well fortunately, daughter, sister and niece are still Covid free at this time. Man, that would REALLY suck to get Covid just after Norovirus!

I was on Deck 7, but I honestly didn't really see them on our deck. I know I saw them on The Lido near the cabin areas and saw them several times when I was trying to get from the front of the ship to the back of the ship for dinner when we would walk down the long hallways of cabins...there were a couple of floors that didn't run straight from the front to the back so would require us going to (for example) floor 2 and walk across. I almost ran into one going from the covered pool to the elevators by the atrium on The Lido, but mainly I saw them in the cabin areas.
It may also be that I was hyper aware of these seeing the cleaning equipment, etc. because I constantly have to tell my young children "don't touch." When you have young kids who have to touch absolutely EVERYTHING and one who was still in the "oral" phase during the first part of the pandemic, you start noticing anything that might result in germ spreading.
My daughter with Noro Virus was on deck 2...

Thanks for the replies. Part of what I'm looking for is a Bingo jackpot that they put on my sail and sign account
