Roger88 Posted April 20, 2020 #802 Share Posted April 20, 2020 I just read the morning report about our city and we had another few hundres fall ill with corona. The funny thing is I never heard any of those falling ill commenting on their health status. As if their phones are taken away and the are limited to communication with the outer world. I want to hear these people. Maybe there is some designated chat for those who have corona? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually never been in Little Italy which is on Seaburn promenade. We had 3 cruises from Venice on Royal Caribbean Splendour of the seas and stayed pre cruise twice. We asked for Garlic bread in a few restaurants in Venice and they said it is not made in Italy and it is a British dish. My grandmother was from Venice. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
