Florida Governor bans Vaccine passports
Embem replied to Luckiestmanonearth's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
The vaccines are really effective at keeping people from suffering the most severe consequences of covid, but infections are still a possibility.

So in theory, the only way to keep serious covid-19 cases from spreading would be to have everyone vaccinated. Otherwise, a vaccinated person could potentially infect an unvaccinated person... Imagine the nightmare scenario of a more contagious varient speading on a cruise ship amonst the unvaccinated folks after one point of -
Vaccine Passports - Interesting T&L article
Embem replied to ninjacat123's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines

@AlohaLivin I would love to see what you had mapped out for "The Amigos Take San Juan" 😀 I am especially interested in your food finds! 🙂 My hubby is a huge foodie, and at one point told me that the best part of vacations was "trying all the different foods".

Hubby and I will be on the Carnival Conquest in a few weeks, and we're largely eschewing traditional shore excursions in favor of more DIY options. We'll be in in San Juan on Sept. 17th, and we want to do our own walking tour of Old San Juan and maybe the forts if time allows. Does anyone have recommendation for guide books/literature on the area to help us map out our walking tour? There was one kindle book I found on Amazon that might be good (The Old San Juan Walking Tour), but reviews were pretty mixed. Other words of wisdom on San Juan for those who have been the
