In my case using retail pharmacy testing my PCR tests have come back in 36 to 48 hours.  My rapid test results from the same pharmacies come back in hours.  Not all retailers in my area offer rapid testing.  Both are accepted.  Both have been free for me.

Apparently you live here (Hi neighbor), where'd you go for testing?

We sail in 2 weeks

Btw Twang on the last night about 330am SpaceX is launching a Rocket. 

BTW, if you're in town and there happens to be a launch, there's a casino port in Port Canaveral you can go on and watch. It's a junky dive, but can be fun.

 

I've seen a couple launches from it

The CVS near me only offer PCR but you can get appointments two weeks out for the Wednesday before the cruise. 

 

The Walgreens near me offer rapid testing but only offer appointments for the next 48 hours and they go quickly so I woke up early and booked one first thing in the morning earlier this week.

IT'S CRUISE DAY!!!

 

Anxiously waiting for the hands on my digital watch to move.  

 

I have a friend driving me to the port today.  He is also vaccinated and cruises as well so he gets it and is low risk, probably lower than using a rideshare.  It seems like a bit of a punishment having a frequent cruiser drive you to a cruise when they aren't sailing.  You know you have a good friend when...

 

Tick-tock, tick, tock, tick, tock.  Are we there yet?

We got a 10:30 check-in time last night for our Mardi Gras sailing in 2 weeks.  I'd love to hear what time you had this morning and how the check in process went.
