Editorial Summary

The creator provides an update on his sixth day aboard Royal Caribbean's Adventure of the Seas, focusing on the stress experienced during the embarkation process. He explains that while initial protocols suggested only proof of vaccination was necessary, a last minute requirement for a COVID test was announced shortly before his trip. This change created significant apprehension regarding the possibility of a positive result canceling his travel plans. The creator describes the testing procedure at the Colonial British Hilton, noting that the nasal swab itself was a painless experience. However, the subsequent waiting period in the Governor's Ballroom proved to be the most difficult part of the process. He describes a room full of passengers anxiously refreshing their emails to check for negative results. After waiting eighteen minutes, he received his negative result, allowing him to board the ship via bus. He concludes by noting that he must undergo another test to return to the United States and reflects on how the mental tension of waiting was more challenging than the actual medical procedures.
