Code Red

So what is code red? Well, it means that there have been a considerable number of Norwalk Virus (the nasty gastrointestinal virus that received lots of media coverage a few years ago) cases that have infiltrated the ship, and to protect us from the passengers we are not allowed to go into the passenger areas. Basically, the crew is trapped on the crew deck unless we’re working. This means I can’t eat in the normal passenger areas and have to suffer the questionable crew mess and I also can’t go to the gym. I think I’m in danger of losing the 6 pounds I gained! Rumor has it that we’ll be on code red until Cadiz which is this coming Tuesday – 4 more days….ugh.
