    Dude, your itinerary is ah-maaaayyyy-zing! I don't blame you for being stoked and hopeful!
    I just lost my June 4 cruise to Canada, but so far, the July sailing is still in play -- though it looks like I won't get a refund or an FCC in time to make my final payment. Ouch.

    I only said I'm positive that I'll be going on my Aug 2 cruise. Never said anything about stuff earlier than that. I'm looking out for Numero Uno!! ????

    I haven't imbibed since New Year's Eve, so I'm coming to the party with this... (but totally plan to enjoy adult beverages on my cruise -- we've all earned a DBP at this point!)

    I’ve been home - now on my 11th day with one breakout. My original date to go back was April 3rd. Today we were told that date is indefinite. My job is in NYC. I can only hope cruises go back soon. I need something to look forward to and I’m tired of being home.

    This one needs a grooming.

    So far, Gov. Hogan of Maryland has stopped short of a shelter-in-place order, but I can't help but think (and as someone in the world of emergency management, kinda hope) that it's coming soon enough. More non-essential businesses were closed today, and of course, there's still no word on when the Cruise Maryland Terminal will re-open. I'm definitely staring down RCCL over my June cruise to Canada; I've got a July itinerary booked, too...but I really don't want to go ahead and cancel the June one because I'm inside final payment and I'd rather Royal blink first and I get the better deal.
    We cruisers are a stubborn bunch!

    We don't have a statewide shelter in place, but Dallas county issued one that goes into effect tonight at midnight. Cities around Dallas have been following their lead, and the mayor of our town, which is in the county just north of Dallas, has said he is making an announcement in the morning regarding a shelter order. I think more rural cities and counties will trickle into the same situation as the virus continues to spread,  and at this point April 11 isn't likely. I've pretty much given up hope for my May 25th sailing... I'm feel like I'm playing a game of chicken with Royal to see who will cancel first.

    This was the stock-up that I bought last week. Supplemented 4 more bottles of Zin back at home, plus an “in case of emergency” bottle of Rumple Minz peppermint schnapps that I can mix with hot cocoa to make Peppermint Patties. Still going strong.

    Beers I bought were:
    Tröegs “Tröegenator” doppel bock Weyerbacher “Merry Monks” tripel abbey ale (full case of that goodness!) Weyerbacher “Tiny” imperial stout (just a 4-pack, getting out of stout season)

    I was 53 when I took my first cruise on the beautiful Freedom of the Seas.
    Our fifth will be on April 26 ( #stillgoing! ) on Harmony, but nothing can replace the phenomenal 
    memories of that first cruise.  Mind you, I was so naive that I thought we had to wait on the dock
    with our luggage, etc, so when we got to the terminal and the porters took our bags, I was too happy.
    I'm tellin' ya - when I first walked onto that ship into the Promenade, I know my mouth was agape for
    10 minutes.  It was so much more than I ever had imagined.  The entire cruise was phenomenal, 
    including the wonderful dinners in the MDR, the Solarium, the ports of call (especially when we went
    to Orient Beach; my gosh how spectacular that was), even the drive home was easy and uneventful.
     
    I wish I had more money and more time to cruise a lot.  It is so fantastic, and the Royal crewmembers 
    make it so much more enjoyable.
    37 days!
