HaHaHa Here is a map that shows the area of Boston in 1630. [dark green] You can see it was a much smaller land mass. You can see how small the neck of land that led to Boston was and why they needed to be warned that the British were coming. All of the light green has been filled in since then to enlarge the city. Great map of Boston in 1630. I don't remember ever seeing that before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had not even thought of that. However, the ability to use our Medicare and insurance in the USA would more than make up for that. We were docked at the harbor in Portland when it happened. So, we were in the US, 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DELTABLUE Posted October 24, 2023 #84 Share Posted October 24, 2023 Oh, no! Sure hope that Alan's injuries are not serious and that you will be on your way home soon via land or air rather than sea. So much for the best laid plans. Please give him a big hug from me. You hang in and be strong. In the meantime, here's a little virtual help... Couldn't hurt.😉 Good for whatever ails you. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And having been assessed a PVSA fine myself last year, it happens when you leave the ship at the first US port after visiting a foreign port of call. Celebrity charged me before we even left the ship. You should be clear. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's that you boarded in one US port and got off in another US port Edited October 28, 2023 by BND Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DH is still in the hospital. We are SO glad we have trip insurance. They are arranging medical transport back to Virginia when he is able to leave the hospital. They pay upfront up to the policy imit. Our RCL insurance policy has a $50,000 limit. This is a huge deal for me. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare perfect match Posted October 29, 2023 #100 Share Posted October 29, 2023 @DragonOfTheSeas, thank you for the update. I’ve been wondering if you and your DH had managed to get home yet. It must have been quite the fall! I hope that you are able to get him out of the hospital soon, and get both of you safely home. I’m happy to hear that you have trip insurance. It certainly does make a big difference when the time comes that you need it. Your story is a good example of why having insurance is a good idea. You may never need it, but that one time that you do it can be life changing. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
