I bet Oceania isn't happy that a pic of one of their ships is being
used with the article!

I noticed that too. Oh well. Just wish people would remember to wash
their hands and not touch the food on the buffet with their hands. That's
what the tongs are for.

In over 30 cruises, I've never had a bout with the Noro Virus. I don't
think any of my 'smart' cruise friends have either. Amateurs drive me
crazy. ;-)

I've been on 42 cruises, and you're right as far as I'm concerned. But I
do take precautions. My friend, Jean, taught me to wipe down almost
everything in my cabin before unpacking.

All you need is a zip top baggie with some Lysol Sanitary Wipes! I always
bring along some extra ones for Ermalee and I have to hurry out of her cabin
or else she puts me to work wiping down things! ;-)
