Starting the general planning here for this cruise: Going to catch the $7/pp e/w shuttle first day/morning in Bermuda to Horseshoe and also do the beach walk over to Butts and Jobson. Then, back to Rum Bum for a drink. Booked a non-RCShoreX sunset cruise in Bermuda that day just before 8p late dining. Usually do the UDP, but wanted to hit the main dining for dinners and see how that goes, so we grabbed lunches at specialty dining all sea days (and Nassau, which we consider a sea day), and nothing else so far. Second day in Bermuda looks like a 2 or 3 pm all aboard, so looking at the Crystal Caves as a non-RCShoreX ressie. If there are any can't miss Bermuda sights to see, love to hear suggestions.

Hello - thought I would post so that this lonely cruise roll call gets a little attention! We are on this one as well, arriving on the 18th to do a nice tour of the surrounding area - done the usual fish throwing and first starbucks location stuff, so we are going outside of the city to see the sights. After that, enjoying the heck out of the glaciers and incredible scenery.

I live directly across the river from the Artemis pad in Titusville. SteverK's description of his/her trips from the UCF campus to NASA usually only takes 45 minutes to an hour at worst. We travel to that area frequently for shopping and eating. An hour and forty-five minutes at 3am is absurd even if the roads were taken over by zombies. A two hour and thirty-minute drive back at 9am in what should have been "against" traffic (people living in Orlando and driving into work at NASA/etc.) would make most people here foam at the mouth. Plan accordingly - people will be packing the roads and viewing areas BEFORE the crack of dawn. Treat it like 495 around DC - you know it will be a disaster, give yourself plenty of time, and drive defensively. If you are fortunate to have boarded your ship before the launch time, AND it actually launches, you'll have a tremendous seat at a historic event. It will shake your teeth. Supposed to be as loud as a jackhammer (depending on humidity, winds & rocket science gods). Enjoy. -

We sail in 5 days and we are still in GTY Interior room status. Not a big deal because stateroom is only good for about 3 things () whereas there are a bazillion things to do outside of the cabin!

That's too bad. I encourage my 18-year-old son to travel internationally - he just returned from a US to Belgium to Spain to Greece trip and he had a blast over 9 days. He and his girlfriend traveled with a backpack each and rolled with it and had a great time. Don't be confined by imaginary issues. Go for it - you'll regret not going. There have always been "rules" to deal with - visas and other heavy handed restrictions - and millions of people have had the time of their lives dealing while dealing with those issues.

In general it can look like this, but every physician practice may use their own paperwork/form: NAME OF PRACTICE Street Address Phone: xxxxx Fax: xxxxxxxx CLIA ID Number: xxxxxxxx, Expires xxxxxxxx COVID-19 CERTIFICATE OF RECOVERY Today’s date: x/x/2022 Patient Name: xxxxxxxxx Patient DOB: mm/dd/yyyy Patient Address: xxxxxxxxxxxxxx The patient’s test results have been reviewed and confirmed as the following: Location: xxxxx CLIA ID Number: xxxxx Test Type: NAAT/PCR Test Date: xx/xx/2022 Test Result: POSITIVE The patient has confirmed: · They’ve had no symptoms of COVID-19 (no fever, nausea, headaches, vomiting or respiratory problems) within the last 72 hours · They’ve completed their isolation period · At least 7 days have elapsed since the date of their positive test · They have fully recovered from COVID-19 · They have no current medical condition that would preclude them from work and/or travel Given the above, it’s concluded that the patient: · Has fully recovered from COVID-19 and is not considered infectious · Appears fit to return to work and/or travel Important considerations for the patient and receiving authority: · The patient must follow local COVID-19 guidelines if symptoms develop, including any mandatory isolation prior to work and/or travel · This COVID-19 certificate of recovery should be presented alongside the patient’s positive test result certificate to confirm the test details Signed by: Dr. XXXXXXX XXXXXXXXX Date:
