This morning we are docking at Fort Lauderdale. These instructions were left on our bed two nights ago. We left our luggage outside our door last night.
Our tag number is three. We should be getting off the ship around 8:10am
Breakfast at the windjammer and saying more good byes. The last morning is sad!!!!
Our trip was fantastic and we traveled a lot of miles.
The port is very crazy. We quickly get on the free shuttle which will take us to the parking garage.
The reality of the growing Coronavirus spread, dropping stocks, and many closures is what everyone is talking about. Royal Caribbean has just changed their policy and as of march 16, 2020. No one over 70 is allowed on their ships without a doctors note.
Every employee is now wearing gloves on and off the ship.
Traffic on I95 seems normal. I anticipated that we would have a lot less traffic due to the closure of all Disney parks and Disney cruises being cancelled.
Homeward bound and we find out that Royal Caribbean has now cancelled all cruises starting at midnight tonight for 30 days. The trips already in progress will continue.
So happy to be heading home, but can’t wait for our next trip May 15th.
