I'm weird like that! 🙂 The Equinox was ready to drop lines at 6:00 sharp with tugs in place to assist -- but the bridge made it clear to the the Harbormaster that they were waiting for passengers to disembark. The bridge called the HM several times to give them an update, stating once that passengers were refusing to leave. Finally around 6:25, the bridge reported that that pax were "finally in an elevator and getting off". Then the port staff communicated that the "private transport to the hospital" had just left. It was a beautiful sailaway, and I hope all onboard have a fabulous relaxing week. ☀️ Edited August 2, 2021 by NengEuis 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use the WebCams and find them relaxing just to watch with the sea sounds in the background. I'll definitely check out the radio chatter. Thanks. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's how I heard that passengers refused to disembark. The Harbor Master did not say why. Edited August 2, 2021 by FLCruiser97 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cangelmd Posted August 3, 2021 Author #105 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Alert to Ken - the Chefs Table might be back on. I’ll let you know when it reappears in our cruise planner and I’m certain. After dinner tonight we were chased down by a gentleman who I think may be the Murano maitre d. He said Chefs Rable was back on, last night, and he wanted to see if we were still interested because our account had already been credited and there was a waitlist. We said we were still interested, just need to cancel the Murano reservation we had made to substitute. We can only do so many big multi- course meals in a week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep the faith! I was actually miffed that I couldn’t see their testing set-up. My long suffering husband said when we thought we were going to have to get tested at the pier - you should tell them you are doing a surprise CAP inspection and get tested first! I said I thought of that, but this testing would probably not fall under CLIA, because it’s not done for patient care purposes or charged to Medicare, oh well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to upgrade to the streaming package and that was spotty at times. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theoretically I may want to take 2 laptops - personal and work. I recall seeing something about 1 device per cabin. I wonder if that means 1 device connected or 1 device overall. Meaning, could I use my personal for a while then disconnect and use my work without some crazy charge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrk2cruise Posted August 5, 2021 #125 Share Posted August 5, 2021 It's one device at a time. If you try to login to the internet from a second device it will tell you and ask if you want to force disconnect the first. No problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
