I have a couple of those too.

My guess was that I got it at grandparent’s day at the school last Tuesday, or on the flight to California on Wednesday. There was an awful lot of coughing and hacking going on from people in lines at the airport and on the plane. Started having symptoms of a sore throat on Friday evening. Tested Saturday and Sunday, and those were both negative. The first positive test showed up Tuesday morning. Of course, my granddaughter had symptoms show up the same time as mine, and she tested negative. She had it in January, so maybe she still had some immunity, and her symptoms only lasted a couple days this time, so they didn’t retest her.

Thank you, and thanks to all who wished me well. So far, no one else has had any symptoms. Today, it just feels like it does a couple days before you shake a typical cold. I will probably wait till Friday to test again, and hope it will be negative by then. I was hoping I would not have an appetite, because I could shed a couple pounds, but that hasn’t been the case.

@Ocean Boy happy birthday. You share a birthday with my daughter.

I still feel about the same, with just cold symptoms. After two negative tests the last couple days, I got one of these this morning. I have been staying away from everyone, because even if it was a cold, I didn’t want to pass it on. I guess I will just miss out on a few fun things for a few days. I just hope I wasn’t contagious when my son flew to Europe Friday morning. I would hate for him to have to deal with it while there. Thanks for asking, Dani.

Beautiful photos. I recognize many of those places. It looks like you made the hike up Diamond Head to take a couple of them. All the islands have their own, unique charm. Still, I think Maui is my favorite.

That is the one. We did see the TV station reporters there, doing a little filming. I am looking forward to the warm up. It is 50° this morning.

I downloaded that series and watched several of the episodes on the flight out to California. I did like what I watched so far.

My son left me his Tesla Model X to drive, so no gas for that one. We are close enough to most places to walk, but have to drive it to get grandson to and from school.

@Luckynana happy birthday to Ryan. And great news about STEM.

Another day, another negative, but I still feel crappy. Grandson just took a test, and he was negative. They have everyone take a test before they get together for play dates. I guess it was good that we picked up 10 tests at the festival yesterday. They were giving them away. Hope we are all healthy for our flight back in 13 days.

Well, I had been enjoying my time in California until last night. Felt great all day, and we logged over 21,000 steps. I spent the morning doing some home repairs for my son, while he is in Europe on business. Gas prices were jumping. This was the price when I went to Home Depot And all grades were up 10 cents later in the day. We walked over to a fire prevention festival, which was pretty small. They did have a few booths, and explanations on how they use goats for vegetation control, along with some goats for kids to see. So now, for my not feeling great part. I started with a low temperature and a cough. It is too late for post cruise symptoms, and I suspect I picked up a bug at grandparents day at the school last Tuesday. I think that, because granddaughter back in PA came down with the same symptoms last night. So far, the tests show this, but I will probably take another later today. Meanwhile, I am avoiding everyone else.

Looks more like 1700 rpm.

@HBE4 another game 7 coming up for your Rangers. Good luck to them.

When I first glanced at that speedometer, I thought maybe you were listening to Sammy Hagar. Obviously, that song was not made for the Canadian market with k/hr, but with the conversion it still works.

So she tested negative on the ship, or did you not report it to medical?

@Luckynana Maryann, so sorry to hear the sad news about baby Ginny. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family.

What I thought also. We had a son and a daughter. After paying for both their college educations, we didn’t get a break in cash outflow when daughter got married. Then I thought I was home free. However, my son married a girl from China, and in their culture, the male’s family pays for the wedding. So for us, we got to pay for two weddings. At least we had the wedding planning thing down to a science by then.

You really need to account for those frequent change orders when you work on that budget. Just get ready for a lot of “yes, dear” , and start writing more checks.

We have done 12 of the proctored tests now, without problems. All done using iPhones on a mini tripod, which really helps. Just test your WiFi strength ahead of time, and change phone settings so it never goes to sleep. Just make sure to change the setting back after the test.

We are both negative with no symptoms. We did join in the pub crawl with that group, and I read that several of them got it. Plus, we had one couple from that group sitting at our table for a few nights in the MDR. Don’t know which table the belonged at, because they were bouncing around to different ones. Anyhow, the last couple nights they moved to the next table over to join another couple. I thought it was odd that about an hour after dinner on the last night, we walked by their cabin, and one of the “raincoat people” was at their door with a test kit. I can’t believe their symptoms would appear that fast, or that they needed to get their last night of dining in before getting tested!

@aussielozzie18 great photos.

Does the pass show the correct date and info in the app? If so, just take a screenshot of it and save in your photos. We have used that method for a couple of cruises, because sometimes the app would not load in the port.

We went to the Farmer’s Market this morning. Quite a few booths set up. It wasn’t too busy when we went. Maybe because their prices are pretty high, just like their gas out here in California. What $20 gets you Maybe I need to go in to farming. Also bought cherries at $7 per pound and nice looking strawberries at $5 a pint. Hillside vegetation control was going on Yes, that is done with goats that they move around.
