Quarantine

The sea is flat and we are travelling quite close to the New Zealand coast. We took on 300 new passengers yesterday so some hygiene regulations are back in force. A man at our table was rather ill so yesterday they put him into quarantine. We were all a bit shocked but decided that it was sensible really. Last year on the Queen Mary the whole boat suffered. David and I both got flu with all the attendant complications so it is good to see they are taking avoiding action! The poorly man though is of the bloody minded persuasion. It was fortunate that he was feeling too ill to protest. Nothing short of chains would prevent him doing what he wanted to! We have got used to the antiseptic gel being sprayed several times a day. It's a price worth paying! - Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone
