I just read that NCL has cancelled 3 early January sailings (1/5 and onwards). It was reported that some cruisers are already in Miami. (I believ eit is Jewel, Breakaway and one more) Getaway is one of the cancelled. Was supposed to sail tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bella 2 may be November 2024 from what I hear John what's the plan for Bella on the World cruise? I imagine you and Laura will miss her greatly. 2 hours ago, Sunshine3601 said: That had to be very scary. I have heard air horns will scare them off. Of course, the puppies would be scared to death if they hear that too. Anyway to put a full fence? Not real doable. Plan for now is to do what @Vibe suggested leash them but also keep a air horn close by to scare them. I've also read sprinkling cayenne pepper keeps them away. 20 minutes ago, DaniDanielle said: I can’t understand how the Bachelor and Bachelorette are still going🤨 I agree. The first season it was on I thought that it would only last a couple of seasons. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know the same as what you probably read that 8 got left behind. We were an hour and a half leaving Nassau. They were making a number of announcements in Spanish, looking for people. I know there are a lot from South America and from European countries on this sailing. The ship is rocking a little as the captain is making up time on our way to St. Martin. Will be there Thursday afternoon. Talked to some first time cruisers that are disappointed in missing out on ports and excursions. Meanwhile, we are listening to some good tunes in the Music Hall. Had to stop at the casino after dinner. Did have a little luck. Never realized the numbers flash in sequence so that not all show up in the photo. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read that one of ncl ships doing a 14 or 15 day sailing including panama canal has turned around after 3 days and is heading back to Miami as key crew members have covid. I'm thinking that could be bridge crew maybe captain. Your guess is as good as mine. Did I hear right? The US had over 1 million new cases in one day. That's crazy.

Has your neurologist suggested speech therapy ? Vocal exercises help build swallowing muscles. You can always split vitamins to see if that helps. Check out trembleclefs.com. They are on-line right now. Otherwise, they meet in west and southwest cities. Best of luck ! Edited January 5, 2022 by NHProud 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Air horn, metal can with lid and rocks in it to shake, cannister of pepper spray are all better deterrents for coyotes..

taznremmy Posted January 5, 2022 #43096 Share Posted January 5, 2022 Currently on the Navigator and today we were denied disembarkation in Puerto Vallarta because 0.47% (yes, less than 1% 🙀) of the crew tested positive. No reported passenger illnesses. Not sure why the crew was tested as they aren’t allowed off the ship. I feel bad for those that have traveled long distances for these Mexico ports. From what I have read elsewhere, it was the local jurisdiction that made the decision. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One lyric stood out to me “…coming home to a place he’d never been before.” I think of the “friends we have yet to meet” here the same way. Comfort and solace from friends you haven’t met yet. I've always liked that song.🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still have the 48 hour cancel clause but hoping things chill by then. Hearing cruises get cancelled is not what I want to hear right now. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
