YouTube Video Description

Hey Sailors, Hopefully the time will come soon when we can go back to work on cruise ships. Spending this time at home I have thought a lot about how cruising will change, not only for the holiday makers, but also for the crew members living on board ships. Due to the pandemic I believe that shore leave will be restricted for crew members because the more we get off and back on again, the more chance we have of catching Covid 19 and bringing it back on the ship. In turn we will be spending much more time on board, and even if we have time off work, we may not be allowed off to explore the ports, so I thought I would share some ideas of things you could spend your time doing if you are on board and unable to get off. I hope you find my ideas helpful and please, if you have any ideas of things we can do, write them in the comments for myself and others to read. Thank you so much for watching and subscribing.
