My wife didn't finish her Morse code lessons before going sailing. She seems to alright though she keeps sending me messages to send her an SMS but I haven't got a reply yet.

I was sailing my boat when a massive hand rose out of the water and then slowly disappeared. I thought, "Thats the biggest wave I've ever seen."

Why did the pirate refuse to say, "Aye, Aye, Captain"? Because he's only got one eye.

Why don't pirates take a bath before they walk the plank? They'll just wash up on shore later

Why couldn't the pirate stop thinking about sailing? He had ship for brains.

This what happens when agencies are serving as political agents instead of sticking with ground truth science. The days of objectivity are gone.

Not for awhile, there's nothing to distribute since the shutdown.

Positive story.

Uh oh - my wife predicted that 2 weeks ago.

Booked & waiting - although the terminal upgrade needs to be completed.

If this happens, and cruises start, will Canada be anyway influenced to get back in the game?

So many coronavirus jokes out there, it’s a pundemic.

Where do sick boats go to get healthy? The dock!

the CDC said you can take your mask off once you're vaccinated, but the mandate against making small talk with me remains in effect indefinitely.

What a relief. The CDC has updated guidelines to say that men can wear jean shorts without being mocked by local teens

The CDC says fully vaccinated people can now continue to listen to ambient music alone in their homes, thinking about the crushing weight of existence

The CDC clarifies that if you are fully vaccinated and no longer wearing a mask, you should still not talk on speaker phone in public

Is it to keep numbers down, focus on higher revenue cabins with "outside air"? Back in 2020 there was debate about just using cabins with outside access as part of mitigation when things start up.

Lets watch and see how long it lasts. Not sure how the early Milli bookings are going, maybe a marketing hook.

Corrosion of credibility - the public is pushing back with common sense arguments. Throw in the law suits which are asking common sense questions. Possible increased movement of industry operations outside the US - they become irrelevant. (Just a few days ago they were calling for mask us on the private islands ) The BS needle is pegged to the "Full" level.

You're right, they didn't modify it. That's the fare before the TA discounts are applied. (I didn't see until my TA explained it.) Just being slow.. The invoice I received from the TA has their discounts and the bottom line end up lower than what I received directly. She said the OBC still remains, so all worked out. (First time I used the online request tool for the credit responded very quickly. So it beat update from the TA's system)

Had a recent interesting experience with the RCL stock owner benefit. There was a published guideline that originally prohibited stacking the Benefit OBC with other OBC. Then the guidance was updated. "Benefit is non-transferable and not available to employees, agents of Royal Caribbean Group or its subsidiaries and affiliates, travel agents and tour operators. Benefit is not combinable with interline rates, travel agent rates, and employee friends and family rates. Benefit cannot be redeemed for chartered sailings, any Galapagos sailings or complimentary sailings." Have 2 direct

And as previously hypothesized, CDC will have agents on select cruises to observe operations.

Isn't airfare being rolled in too?

Carnival is still being pretty bullish from Galveston for 5 July (I think). Leaning --------->forward
