The Australian Government paid a one-off $750 to any australian receiving any form of government pension or family payment. This was done to assist them and help the economy because it was considered that they would most likely spend it and thus boost the economy. No forms to fill out, it just arrived in my account.

This is just the best news..No virus and coming home. Thanks for keeping us in the loop.

New canal was cleared for a faster transit. Set a new record, 3.5 hrs for the transit. I guess they wanted them out of there.

And Zaandam now doing 15 knots under the pilot's control. Must be in a hurry to get them through.

Comments on the Holland forum state it is the new canal and are watching on the new canal cams.

You are right. Holland will be paying plenty. Priority through the new canal - unheard of before.

Rotterdam looks like she is about to follow the Zaandam through the new canal.

Latest news from Holland America is that the Zaandam and the Amsterdam have now been given permission to transit the Panama Canal. Fingers crossed.

No such thing as takeaways anymore in our little village as the club is closed. Luckily our butcher is still open. And the pub bottle shop is open for 3 hrs each day. At least we can still get wine in.

I believe they are trying to negotiate with Durban where the empty Ms Amsterdam is heading. The Amsterdam has permission to provision and refuel there before they continue their journey.

Our local cafe is now closed. The owner messaged me to be there at 9.30 to pick up my coffee. I was special. No other customers and free coffee. No more coffee for a while now.

Thank you for such wonderful news. Now get some sleep. And thanks for the video.

Comments from onboard suggest that some had 15 or 16 pieces of luggage.

Anyone who booked flights through HAL definitely but I did not see a final decision for the rest.
