Thank you for the Tuesday Daily, Rich. I'll salute Daniel Boone and pass on the other 2 days. Taiwain is on my bucket list but I doubt it will ever happen. Great statement by Grayson. The meal sounds interesting. My alternative is Canaletto Salad, Sauteed Veal Picatta, and Pistachio Gelato as served on MS Prinsendam June 7, 2015. Today’s care list: Sharon Dh with covid Melinda with stage 4 cancer Heartgrove older sister in hospice nearing the end Heartgrove brother continuing problems in rehab Buddy with continuing problems Dismomx5 and DH in covid quarantine but feeling better From the rotation: 1Angelcat facing expensive medicines Cruising-along niece awaiting a kidney Strength, peace, and healing for kazu Cruzin Terri with continuing health problems Celebrations and Shoutouts: 5 Days for Westerdam Volendam housing refugees Welcome home Cruising-along Dfish productively following discharge instructions Kochleffel starting to feel better 1 day for travelingbums (Jewel of the Seas, June 8-20) 4 days for Oceansaway17(Allure OTS 6/11 to 6/18) 5 days for Mister67 (Equinox 6/12 to 6/18) 6 days for VMAX1700 (Oosterdam 6/13 to 6/25) StPeteCruiser (Nieuw Statendam to 6/10), Sharon in AZ (Oosterdam to 6/13 + 6 days Venice) and StLouisCruisers and kb4683(Island Princess to 6/29) at sea Koningsdan Staff Captain Sabine - Our first female Staff Captain and HAL’s likely first female Captain(I know this is a repeat but she’s worth it) Roy

I think that's relatively minor. The really big effect they have is their interaction with the crew. The Captain sets the tone for the entire atmosphere on the ship. A crew that feels valued from the top will be happier and a happy crew makes for a happy ship. Interaction with the passengers is nice but the effects of a good captain diffuse throughout the ship.

Bon Voyage Roy -
Thank you for the Monday Daily, Rich. Neither a gardener nor a yo-yo person, I have fond memories of drive-ins from my youth but they are now pretty much gone. Love the quote. Been to Sitka rarely, including my first HAL Cruise, Rotterdam V. We must celebrate our remaining D-Day heroes. Not sure what the meal is. My alternative is Iced Melon Bisque, Orange and Radiccio Salad, and Chicken Kiev as served on MS Prinsendam June 6, 2015.

Are you feeling better than before the surgery? Roy

How much support does Royal offer for people getting off one ship and getting on a different Royal ship in the same port (Everglades) on the same day. Do they offer any help with moving bags? Covid tests if necessary for the next ship? Anything else I should know? Thanks Roy

Thank you for the Sunday Daily, Rich, I will salute both care for the environment and children. I just marked a quarter century since my surgery for prostate cancer. I love the Hosseini quote but have not been to Messina. Since I don't care for mushrooms I'll pass on the meal. My alternative is Pinnacle Caesar Salad, Petit Filet, and Baked Alaska as served in the MS Prinsendam Pinnacle Grill on June 5, 2015. And thank you @grapau27 for today's sermon.

With all the positive cases around I'm trying to be super cautious about myself. There was a positive test present in our church last week and I do not want to cause a second one so I will worship from home. I did a test yesterday (negative) and will do one more test next week as well as a PCR test on Wednesday. Roy

Yesterday we had a discussion of when @richwmn started doing the fleet locations. I found this thread that he started April 27, 2019. Nobody volunteered to take on the project and the next day, April 28, 2019 Rich produced his first Daily Fleet Locations: Roy

Thank you for the Saturday Daily, Rich. No cat to hug. My usual lunch is grilled Ham and Cheese, and the applesauce cake @0106 shows looks delightful, and the pasta sounds nice. I love the Green quote and have been to Rousseau just once, on my segment of the 2014 Amsterdam world cruise. I'll pass on the alternative menu suggestion since @richwmn's looks so good.
