Rare Waynetor Posted June 22, 2019 #2153 Share Posted June 22, 2019 Betsy is the former wife of Don Horner who passed away back in 2016. Don was a great contributor here on CC and they were a wonderful couple. All the best to the new couple. Hope you are able to enjoy many more cruises. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go-Bucks! Posted June 22, 2019 Author #2155 Share Posted June 22, 2019 Today is Belfast, NI...I saw the pilot boat buzz past my balcony window so he was on the ship...a comfort to know! 😉 Trying to keep Bob cheered up! I heard that Jim is back on the ship...welcome back and hope to see you around. 👍 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Go-Bucks! Posted June 22, 2019 Author #2156 Share Posted June 22, 2019 Belfast, NI...got a manicure, visited the Cathedral of St. Anne (Anglican), shopped at a craft store, bought beautiful Irish wool yarn at a store that only sells things made in Ireland, had lunch in a cafe and got this fast wifi at Starbucks. Nice day. Oh, and for whatever reason, the CC site is letting me upload photos!! Shocking... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Citizen Posted June 22, 2019 #2160 Share Posted June 22, 2019 FDR is right!! Hope he’s doing well after having to deal with all the recent Cuba cancellations. We were on the Regatta, along with Betsy and Don and others, celebrating Oceania’s 10th anniversary, when he announced his idea of Around the World cruises. He was hoping others would be as excited about them as he was. Little did he imagine how excited people would be! A true visionary!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We met her and Don on Regent Navigator way back about 2009 or thereabouts. Congrats to both of you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wendy The Wanderer Posted June 22, 2019 #2164 Share Posted June 22, 2019 I'm just bowled over by the idea of two people meeting on a long cruise like that, falling in love and then getting married. Could it be any more romantic? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CintiPam Posted June 23, 2019 #2165 Share Posted June 23, 2019 I was excited (and posted my congratulations) about this so very romantic engagement even before I found out I had met one of the parties. Spouse legaleaglegreen and I had a lovely dinner with Don and Betsy when they overnighted in Cincinnati before embarking on one of their riverboat cruises. It was so fun to meet the author of so many helpful non-partisan posts on this very board and the very gracious Betsy. Electronic communication works but IMO does not hold a candle to in-person communication. Best wishes for a complete prompt recovery to Bob and to the newly-engaged couple for many happy adventures together. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BulldustHHH Posted June 24, 2019 #2167 Share Posted June 24, 2019 Hadn't watched this thread for a couple of weeks... dang it Bob! There's easier ways to propose than after a heart attack and a stroke mate! Sheesh, all's well that end well. Terri says hi as well 😄 Glad to hear everything is well - that was some tense reading for the last half dozen thread pages. So I guess it is time to start planning the honeymoon cruise 😜 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Beach Posted June 24, 2019 #2168 Share Posted June 24, 2019 I talked to Trish on shore and she said the ship got an email that Bob abd Betsy were reboarding the ship in Cork. I hadn't heard so I called Bob. The doctor said no to four days at sea and the slight potential for problems that could not be addressed that far from land. He and Betsy were in Paris boarding a flight for New York. It is still possible they will get back on in Halifax. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like a good time for Bob to get home, check in with his own medical team and do some rest and rehab. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Citizen Posted June 24, 2019 #2171 Share Posted June 24, 2019 Thanks, Jim, for the update on Bob and Betsy. Hope you get to see them onboard again. Bob’s situation is a good wake-up call for the rest of us to make sure we have good travel insurance for medical issues that might arise when so far away from home. I’m wondering if MedJet Assist would have come into play in this situation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t see why not - as long as Bob was cleared to be flown to a hospital near home. If it wouldn’t be covered, then it’s not worth the paper it’s written on.

His regular trip insurance would probably pay for an upgraded seat home. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes - the patient must first spend a minimum of 24 hrs in a hospital before MedJet would transport the patient. That said, the patient must be in a stable condition and be cleared by a physician for such a long airplane transfer and that is not always the case (at least not immediately). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boerneDQ Posted June 27, 2019 #2175 Share Posted June 27, 2019 I must admit, I am missing the daily updates from Bob and the othe RTW cruisers. Where are y’all now? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
