Hope once you leave Juneau you are able to find some sunshine to enjoy. It seems every time I have gone to Juneau or Ketchikan it is always raining or misting. Enjoy the rest of your cruise. Neil This is one of those things that I hate the most - when I finally get a chance to go on vacation and I have to deal with bad weather, rain, overbooking and full beaches..

Chatted with Rico for a while and he is a great guy and does a good job as well😀 We are in Icey Straight tomorrow. We left Juneau at 6 PM but at 7:30 the Capt came on and announced he had to turn around and go back as there was a medical emergency. Hope whoevever it was will be ok. Thanks Lois and there was no proof of negative test required 72 hours before sailing. Some of us are confused by what this person posted. Interesting you are doing icy point after Juneau, Juneau and Tracy Arm/Endicott Arm were our last stop. I do hope that person with the medical emergency will be ok. . Continue Safe and healthy journey to you all . Edited August 26, 2021 by bobolz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluebelle14 Posted August 27, 2021 #182 Share Posted August 27, 2021 Thanks, Lois. Don't think we've sailed with Captain Sangiacomo. Is anyone having trouble signing in to "My Silversea?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CJANDH Posted August 27, 2021 #187 Share Posted August 27, 2021 Muse has gone from Green to Yellow on the CDC chart, which means that a case has been reported on board. It only takes 0.1% of guests to test positive to trigger this move. With the low number of guests on Muse, that would be just one person. Link to CDC web page: https://www.cdc.gov/quarantine/cruise/cruise-ship-color-status.html If you are around Lois, any announcement from the bridge?

I went to Guest Relations about this and they were not aware of this status change. They said they would tell the appropriate people. I showed them the link.

Yellow could also indicate that the state or local health department notified the CDC of passenger COVID-19 cases that occurred within 5 days of disembarkation.

CJANDH Posted August 27, 2021 #191 Share Posted August 27, 2021 Stumblefoot. You are right. However it is well past the 5 day limit from the last disembarkation. So it would seem that the case is/was onboard this cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good other that Silversea's is not "cutting corners" with the "extras" that make a positive difference. THANKS! Enjoy! Terry in Ohio In terms of "cost cutting" there did seem to be some inventory reduction going on. They ran out of several popular beer brands and a few wines early in the cruise. Understandable that they want to reduce capital outlay and not a problem for us. Plenty of acceptable options available!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Lois R Posted August 27, 2021 Author #193 Share Posted August 27, 2021 Hi CJ, It could mean the CDC was made aware someone was lifted off the ship. From what I was told there are no positive cases on board this sailing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare WesW Posted August 28, 2021 #196 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Hi Lois; first sad that a passenger passed on your voyage. Please, if u get the chance, tell Marco Sangiocomo, Ida and I said hello. We know we won't see him on the Silver Dawn in November, but we really enjoy cruising with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare bobolz Posted August 28, 2021 #197 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Lois- sorry to hear about the death of the passenger. Any death is so tragic, regardless the cause. Well as mentioned by Anchorbuoy our cruise will require testing to board, so something changed to trigger that protocol. Will cross our fingers that we pass. Continue to stay healthy and safe. Once again thanks for sharing! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare highplanesdrifters Posted August 28, 2021 #198 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Lois - Thanks so much for all your updates and info. In theory we board tomorrow. Hope you had a wonderful trip and safe passage home. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KMACKCANADA Posted August 28, 2021 #199 Share Posted August 28, 2021 (edited) Your posts are very much appreciated, Lois and Highplanesdrifters, as there are many eyes on this thread as it relates to future travel. Many, many thanks. I am booked on the last voyage of the season on the Muse and protocols seem to change frequently. It feels particularly difficult trying to get to Seattle from Canada with airline testing requirements. Thank you again.
