Rare Georgia_Peaches Posted March 20, 2020 #162 Share Posted March 20, 2020 You likely won't be negatively affected by the California closure. Grocery, gas, medical, and other essentials are still open. All nonessential movement has been banned/shut down. But here's hoping that your return home via San Diego is not considered non-essential. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wrk2cruise Posted March 20, 2020 #164 Share Posted March 20, 2020 Agree. I wish the passengers/crew onboard Eclipse a safe and enjoyable sail to San Diego. Use the 10 days at sea to relax as much as possible to relieve the stresses of the unknowns you have experienced in the last few days and those to come as you return home. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beachin2 Posted March 20, 2020 Author #165 Share Posted March 20, 2020 Captain Leo announced this morning we will be making a very brief non docking stop somewhere in Equidor in a few days. Sounds like Chile couldn't come up with all the meds. Side note, had a dolphin escort for a bit this morning. Pod of probably 30+. Good omen. 12 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arubamoose Posted March 20, 2020 #170 Share Posted March 20, 2020 As much as I am happy to continue my planned trip to San Diego - albeit - without any port stops - I am anxious to get back on US soil. Glad we are underway but NOT going to be reassured until the fat lady sings. My friends and family have so many stressful things going on in their lives right now - I want to be there to help. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We went on a 4 day RC cruise in early March and even then I couldn't wait to get home. Something about being in our "safe" place, even if it isn't as safe as it usually is. Hope you get here soon!

It is so cool, we sailed on the Radiance down the coast a few years ago and every day in that Southern Part of the Ocean our escorts were amazing!! Hope you get to see some whale activity as well!!

MamaFej Posted March 21, 2020 #175 Share Posted March 21, 2020 Keep an eye out for green turtles, as well. We saw a few from the balcony of the Eclipse on our San Antonio to San Diego cruise last March/April. Other cruisers and the naturalist saw rays. When I saw green turtles on the north shore of Oahu in October, I threw all logic aside and deluded myself that they were the same ones. 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
