All I can say is this picture of Kid Rock's made it's way around Social Media: This was supposedly June 12, before they were cited. They may be staying within the capacity of all 3 floors, but it looks like people are all staying on the first floor with no distancing. My daughter took a look in the window last Friday night and said it was very much like this. The other bars that my daughter said were closed are Wildhorse and Losers. Admittedly, neither is directly on lower Broadway. Some people just don't seem to get it. 🙁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, yes, its all the bars fault, not the 100's of thousand's who were protesting There is not a protester on this planet that would be found in Kid Rock's. 😨 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was right down the street at Crossroads listening to some friends of ours play that same day, ironically enough. There was not hardly any people out that day because of the threats of riots/looting for that weekend. There was constant police presence all over the streets. I'll admit, I didn't go INTO Kid Rocks that day, but I walked by it several times and it never looked like this from the outside. Edit to add: Losers has actually been closed for a while (it's on 3rd Ave S). It's a very small bar and to be at max capacity isn't really worth them opening because the number allowed would be so low. It's really no great loss for that bar because it isn't worth much. LOL Wildhorse is more of a venue, than a bar. It often isn't open unless they have something going on in there. We saw photos of the beach crowd from before COVID19. Shame on them.

I'm seriously nervous that my British Isles cruise for July 2021 won't happen... I hope it does we're booked too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think the cruiselines are waiting until then with the hope that there is a vaccine? Or possible early2021 starting with the 3-4 day cruises and then expanding to 7 day cruises in the spring? I have a June 2021 cruise out of Seward, Alaska. I really want to to go but the news I hear lately isnt optimistic. I'm hoping for March ! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spunks Posted July 2, 2020 #109 Share Posted July 2, 2020 I think it indicates that the ship yard where is was being built had to shut down due to covid…...and then the suppliers had to shut down.....I doubt it is a bellweather for the industry.

sealeggs Posted July 10, 2020 Author #112 Share Posted July 10, 2020 Well since i started this thread a while back it has gotten off topic a little bit. We were glad to hear that there will be a Windjammer when they do start back. I don't care if they serve us. They aren't getting rid of it. We like the Jammer! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Germancruiser Posted July 10, 2020 #114 Share Posted July 10, 2020 Cruises out of Hamburg are starting in 10 days- Aida- Tui and Hapag - only short cruises- only sea days- only 60% capacity- a little start- but a start nevertheless! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really hope that between the face shields and everyone treating each other like lepers, getting to know crew and making conversation isn't a casualty. I feel as though when the crew are away from home for so long, it helps them to form relationships with guests as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not something we will pay for.

Already gave up on October, January we have alternative plans and at current rates I put a 50/50 on March break. I’d like to see them going sooner as well, like you, to see how it will work on ships. 5 minutes ago, bouhunter said: Yeah doesn't it though. Not something we will pay for.

I wear masks here as needed and would accept wearing them on land all the time if mandated in my community. However, I would not be a fan of paying to wear them on a cruise. I suspect those with the ability to drive to port would be more willing to pay for it. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Germancruiser Posted July 13, 2020 #122 Share Posted July 13, 2020 We have to wear masks- it is mandatory before entering any kind of store, any kind of public transportation, useing uber oder a regular cab going into a restaurant - walking around a restaurant. For us here it is the new normal - which will stay for the time beeing. I am very very curious and also looking forward to my first " little voyage " starting at July 27th. Tui- Cruises belongs partly to RCI - their ships are comparable to X! My first ever cruise on board an only German ship , with only Germans around - I never thought I will see that day coming! But there it is... it ´s this or nothing for the moment! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Germancruiser Posted July 13, 2020 #124 Share Posted July 13, 2020 Only one technical stopp in Oslo ( 3 hours) . No excursions allowed. I am fine with that- since I love sea days anyway. I look really forward to it- the ship is sailing at 60% capacity. So enough room for social distancing. I already did part of the online check- in. Printed the mandatory health questionare- which really is nothing more then the one we all know and we all fill out before every cruise since years. Also there are time slots for check in- which will be given just before the departure! I am sure will do a review- maybe in " Live from one of the first cruises after Lock Down- Style! 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
