Good way to spend the time! _________________________ Pics - 3 shots taken inside SABIAN's cymbal vault up in the New Brunswick woods somewhere.. Our Canada Cruise called in at St. John, NB which is not too far away -but not exactly close either! Was never sure if it was feasible to make a quick dash or what. Always thought it would cost you a fortune in taxi fare! And it would need to be pre-arranged, too. I'll stick to a Single Strike Roll and change time to the Flam Tap. 🥁😎 Edited March 7, 2020 by davekathy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm. I think you're on to something there. Electrical devices are sometimes snared at security, but I have an old Tupperware shaker that I could pack full of crystallite mojito and margarita mixes... Not flying to port... ETA: This would be to go with the two bottles of rum I'm ordering for the room...

DON Grand and Diamond both had complimentary Wifi, imagine 2000+ passengers all using it, make 300Baud look fast. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mips Posted March 7, 2020 #58 Share Posted March 7, 2020 I have playing cards, cribbage board, travel monopoly and chequers, my self imposed rule was everything extra had to fit in a gallon ziplock, crochet hook and yarn and downloaded a how to learn as I have zero idea. Have loaded up ipad with extra books and games. Tacking extra meds, added some sample packs of laundry detergent to our cruise kit that has all the regular stuff in it. Bought a couple of extra battery tealights and more cough drops than usual. 6 weeks tomorrow we are on that ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Several posters said the same thing back on Monday … yet the US government doesn't want the folks in California allowed off the ship because it will screw with their numbers. You can't make this stuff up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes enough drink for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leafpeeper Posted March 8, 2020 #61 Share Posted March 8, 2020 I was on a ship a week ago. Was wondering why I left my IPad and reading glasses home. At least I had my iPhone. I was shocked the ship was full. Was hoping to upgrade to a balcony, but nobody cancelled. It would not bother me to be quarantined the last two weeks in February if I was in a balcony cabin. Makes me rethink booking an inside cabin during Flu season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TravelinGert Posted March 8, 2020 #62 Share Posted March 8, 2020 This is an interesting thread. I wouldn't mind being quarantined as long as it was in a nice cabin, but I'd sure want some things to pass the time. At least a deck of cards, some shows I want to watch saved to my laptop, maybe a game like Cards Against Humanity. I always pack the standard OTC meds but I guess you'd want extra cough drops and analgesics on you in that sort of scenario? For sure something to wash some clothing with. Funny we probably should have been carrying some of this stuff all along. After all it could have just as likely been any one of us on any other cruise that got stuck in a sticky situation like that Princess ship and the Westerdam. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
euro cruiser Posted March 9, 2020 #63 Share Posted March 9, 2020 It's not about potential boredom, it's about the fear. I'm not sure that all of the movies, games, books, etc. in the world would make much of a dent in the fear from being locked up and given no or bad information. Consider the folks still floating off the coast of California who only heard about the positive cases on the ship when the Vice President mentioned it at a press conference.

If I'm gonna die on board there is no finer way to die on a cruise ship!

beachbum53 Posted March 10, 2020 #65 Share Posted March 10, 2020 If I knew ahead of time there'd be a better than 50/50 chance of being quarantined, I'd see if the cruise line could book these guys. Nothing like some rousing Polka music to keep things from getting boring. 😁 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hawk/hornfan Posted March 13, 2020 #68 Share Posted March 13, 2020 Uh my favorite hooker??? But seriously folk, it's not what I brought, does the ship have enough vodka, gin, bourbon and tequila. and well of course burgers and hot dogs for lunch. Eggs and bacon for breakfast. and for dinner steaks and seafood. I can do my laundry in the sink. Meds I always pack extra. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
