1) Yes, with Geico though.

2) No, he was found on the floor of his bathroom

3) Yes, the assassination occurred in Texas.  Which VP was from Texas?

4) On TV, yes.  In reality, no.

Just like I said over a year ago....any restrictions will not be enforced.

 

 

And it will be especially bad when those who should be masked but are not get on the elevator with you.

Hey Mac go on you tube and search Carnival Mardi Gras, the rooms are very nice all bathrooms have nice showers with glass doors no more horrible curtains! They do have the shampoo and body wash dispenser still no conditioner.

Saw a YouTube video that the Excel Suites had a rainfall shower as well as a third dispenser on the wall, assuming that it was conditioner.  The bathroom comes in @ 1:34.  Really great large bathroom with 2 doors for entry.

Ahhhh !! I certainly will do that ! If, I can find somewhere, anywhere to get a COVID 19 PCR or a test Carnival will accept. we've called several drug stores, even the county health Dept without any results. Kinda  lost about where or who to turn too next. Wife's about ready to give up, but told her, Gotta keep lookin, searchin. But the days are tickin by.. Thanks for the info about the new improved MG bathrooms Gentlehyena.

I was about to ask if you had to do it all over again, would you have gone. But you answered it without me asking. Thank you. And I hope you left with several ships on a stick. I'd like to add to my collection someday.

I’ll do my best to answer any questions you have! Sorry, failed at taking pics! But I was really truly there! Mainly hung around the Havana areas. Louis and Wendy (Havana bartenders) were amazing! Did every specialty restaurant. Ask away!

I'm seeing a lot of posts indicating that the crew can not leave the ship while in port, and anything they need they have to buy from Carnival, like personal hygiene products, etc. I saw a blurb of a post from JH that seemed to confirm this, but he said something like "We have things available for the crew" which doesn't mean it is free....Can you confirm that crew are stuck onboard and have to buy basic necessities?  If so I will load up my suitcase with some goodies...
