I think the cream that was mentioned earlier to ease the scarring is Mederma .  Perhaps,  you can ask a medical professional about using  it .

Thank you.

The consultant said any cream will work it is  actually the massaging of the cream into the scar which helps.

I am back home now after getting the stitches out.

The hospital sister put some antibiotic gel on the wound and said it had healed well.

There are several of us with January cruises.  I am thinking we need to hold on and see.  Maybe there will be so many cancellations RC will send out a letter saying they are canceling all cruises but one.  Then they will take one large ship that will sail to each port and pick us all up and we will have a week to party together! 🎉

I made final payment when it came due last week but only because I can fall back on CWC and still cancel. It will depend on what is happening aboard the ships and port calls. If not for CWC I am pretty sure I would have cancelled last week before making the payment.

 

Unfortunately, it is really hard to enjoy the anticipation (a big part of any cruise for me) when everything is so up in the air.

We are scheduled for a cruise beginning of Feb and feel the same way.  Usually I enjoy the prep almost as much as the cruise but definitely not this time.  Our final is due next week and we waiver back and forth every day, not fun.

 

On the bright side, if you can call it that, did get RoyalUp with quite low bidding minimums, may bid on a suite in case we need to stay in the cabin more, just not sure if that's even worth it, just feel blah about it all.  If we hadn't gotten such a great deal on our current cabin most likely would have canceled by now.

I read a new thread on the main board, where someone from Jan 30 Allure cruise got an email that they will not be going to San Juan due to new covid protocols in PR and the port has been subbed with an overnight in St Marten.

So it seems they are working on some alternate things. Royal has been having a lot of bad press. But the stocks are OK.

I won't be upset if we miss PR and I would Love to have an overnight in St Marten🤩

Busy day in the Sea Dog household. Pick up puppy number 2, Elizabeth’s brother Charley and then I have surgeon consultation about my knee replacement with a doctor that uses a robotic assist knee replacement. I starting to wonder if I’m crazy getting a knee replacement with two new puppies? Linda says we will adapt, but I’m starting to feel guilty about getting it done. Should make it still easy to do this.0ECB217F-4128-4172-8031-D9DA043079AD.thumb.jpeg.a8ec8723bd6a8fb40df55f62a4e973d5.jpeg

Beautiful granddaughter!

She is obviously a sand castle architect!

I hope you learned from her!

Take care and stay safe everyone 😷.

I no longer get off the ship in San Juan, love St Maarten. 

The most interesting thing about going off ship in San Juan is having the opportunity to meet the guy who needs $30 to get to the airport to go home In Minnesota.So far he has approached us 12 times.

Beautiful Granddaughter.    Wonderful sandcastle skills.     

Enjoy these special moments.     I used to love to go to the beach for early morning walks with my Father.     We found the best treasures while everyone was still sleeping.    There are some of my best memories.😍

Maryanne, where did you stop for the night? We stop in Florence SC going south, if we are making only one stop.

Have a safe rest of the journey!

We stopped in Lumberton, NC at the Hampton Inn.  Comfortable and clean😊

Tonight we'll be staying somewhere in Palm Coast.  I hate to complain, but SC was the pits today.  It usually takes us 3 and 1/2 hours to get through...today it took an hour longer, mostly bumper 2bumper again.
