They just mentioned in the Today show that CDC said cruising may be able to restart by the middle of July. They did not give a lot of details but did say 95% of people aboard would need to be vaccinated and some testing requirements will be relaxed. Maybe there will be a follow up segment.

I was watching that!

Sounds very positive. I am sure our resident Negative Nosterdamus is ready with his safety pin to p r i c k this balloon, but I will count that as entertainment😁

He can still sing but has to sit for his concerts.  Doesn't have the real high notes anymore but it was cool to see his young son touring with him.

 

 A Genesis concert was my husband and my first date in 1986.

Aww...thanks!  😊  We are sooo excited to finally go on a trip again.  The two weeks will go by fast! 

 

Forgot to mention...naturally I have another identifier on my suitcase.....this awesome, rare, and valuable collector's item hanging from the handle!  😄 😄

OMG I have those too! They were giving them out like peanuts on our Enchantment cruise when she was in Baltimore. I think it was the repo from Baltimore.

Me neither...or the pool.  😜  Bacteria soup!  Did you ever notice the pax in the pool/hot tub that hang out along the edge with several beers, but never get up to find the restroom. 😳

I've never been in a hot tub or the pool a cruise. I am going to try the pool at the cabana club on CC on our next cruise, maybe.

We are those people, though I don't put an X, we have the letter of our last name.  I also put a racing stripe on the bottom of the suitcase as that is the end that usually comes down the luggage chute first.  We have fluorescent green and fire engine red duct tape too.  Might as well go all out. 😄 

I solved the problem of putting identifying things on our bags

I have definitely not seen that color in the baggage area before!  I switched to red when everyone had black and then red was everywhere.  We have one blue piece that is a very different color blue that I rarely see.  I got a new piece that is a purpleish color that ripped first time I used it, brought it back and they replaced it as it was the handle stitching that went.  Used the replacement on my last cruise February 2020 and it came off the conveyor belt at the airport with a whole in the back.  Airline gave me a new bag on the spot, so now I have a hard shell black bag that has never travelled yet.  Still need to add its racing stripes.  What brand is that one?  I never heard of the brand of the one the airline gave me but I googled it and it got decent reviews.  We need to replace some of the other ones as they are on their last legs but haven't bothered since the pandemic.

IT Luggage.  They have a lot of lightweight luggage.  This bag has been around for a while so not even sure if they still have those colors.  We have a small bright red one as well.

Wow.  Don't even need the lights to be on in the baggage claim area.

I have to have my sunglasses on when I pick it up😎

It feels like we are sitting on our balcony at the back of the ship.

Beautiful pictures and yes I could sit out there all day and listen to that sound. You and the Pauline look great!

We got them at M&Ms, plus the "spin to win" in the casino.  😉  I have a drawer still full of them.  For some reason my sister is not happy when I give them to her for Christmas.  😮 😄

What is that decadent looking cake?

 

My DDIL idea of a birthday cake.......................... 'nough said 😉

 

But they're a nice fit, since I've asked DS2 [litigation lawyer] "what's the deal with the 5 candles only"???

 

His reply: "That's my cognitive age right now".....

@bobmacliberty Well, surprise, surprise!  I just got an email from Ticketmaster to register for early access to Genesis tickets for a 14 city tour that Genesis announced a few hours ago.  Tour ends in Boston on December 15th.  I know what I want for Christmas this year!  They are playing in Buffalo too!
