I'm leaving for Caribbean cruise Saturday. If I'm stuck in room for 14 days I'll catch up to Bob in number of posts.....


Which cruise line? I’m going on a 7 day Caribbean cruise at the end of March. At this point I couldn’t be less worried about the coronavirus affecting it.

I used to love to do Caribbean cruises but now that I have been to all of the ports I don't enjoy it as much. My wife is not a fan.


Your wife? Don't you have 2 wives?

There's some cruise ship out there right now that's been refused entry in 5 ports because of disease.
And one detained in Japan with 175 confirmed cases aboard so far. Mobility aboard ship is restricted but HVAC system can't be shut down.

Good news. Politicians have re-named it.

Chances are everything will be fine on your voyage but have a good book and hoard toilette paper if anyone gets sick.

Only one that the state and federal government know about. Besides, I limit that discussion to the thread that was talking about polygamy.

When I know flu season is here, I usually have gotten a shot already. The incidence of mortality for the coronavirus may be low, but there is no shot.

Granted the flu shot is a bit hit and miss but I've done okay by it so far.
You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really?

I am a big believer in the flu shot. In my own experience even if I get the flu it only lasts a day or two when I have had the shot.

Royal Caribbean. I am not a big fan of these gigantic ships. But dates and ports were a good fit for me , wife and her two daughters. School vacation made this week the only choice. I’ve LOVED small ship (Nile, Yangtze, Galapagos, Rhine). Did big ship to Alaska, Western Caribbean, Greek Isles. I think I posted about the Greek Isles one where I essentially for an extra $200 got the big freaking suite on the front of the boat. That was fun!

You need a 3rd wife, one that
can cook so you don't have to
eat gas station hot dogs and
frozen pot pies every day. In
that pic you don't look like
the poster boy for health.

That’s rude. I think I speak for all members when I say you should post a pic of yourself so we can compare! You post pics of your food all the time so we know you’re capable...

There are none. I don't allow it
for obvious reasons.
