I feel like the mapping is a little better on the one I bought this year vs last year, both are the IQ self emptying. Usually only gets stuck on cat toys though... which reminds me, I think I forgot to pick the problem cat toy up today! I usually throw it on the coffee table and in the evening the cat pushes it off to play with
Funny, we got off the RCCL Freedom in early March 2020, just before a Star Wars cruise left. They were decorating the ship as we departed. Maybe the last sailing before the end.
RCCL had a testing van outside in the garage where the separation queue started. Pricey at $105 per person, but got our friends onboard. For some reason they took the 3-day PCR test and didn’t get the results in time.
Timing the tests can be a problem, and you might have to travel to get an appointment. I took my test in FL the day before sailing. Other families (who ended up backing out and doing an all-inclusive in Cancun) had their testing canceled the day before their scheduled appointment. There seemed to be more availability in FL.
We have a non-mapping Roomba. It does the job, but it drives me insane. It goes over the same areas 484737x and then never covers other areas.
I'm curious on these things. I would want it in my kitchen, I'm sure it could go around the island, but can it manage the dining table and chairs?
Are you headed to Japan? I can't recall.
I've got one kitty that loves string so she has a few laying around. We have to remember to pick those up.I feel like the mapping is a little better on the one I bought this year vs last year, both are the IQ self emptying.

I loved my Roombas when they worked. I had two and they both died. One died shortly after the warranty ended and the other lasted about another year after that. This was several years ago though, so hopefully they have improved. Kind of silly, but what I liked most was the psychological trigger. While the Roomba was cleaning the floor, I was more motivated to clean something else in the house.
I guess I better read up on this. I didn’t realize you needed to test if you have a vax card. I wonder if that’s true out of PR also. I have two flights booked while I wait to see when DS can go. So the earlier flight we would need to test in PR instead of at home.
This is crazy. PCR can pick up virus particles and whole virus but can't distinguish. So yes, it might be a month or longer before non infective virus particles are cleared. PCR is useless in this situation.
Yes to this part, I mean you attain that status in the current year, it carries through the Feb of the year two years from now.
I do feel better about going on a cruise out of FL than flying out of the country right now. And we're driving, so it's only 6 hours drive for us. We'll try to get appointments at Walgreens in our hometown on Tuesday, we drive down Wednesday, and we board on Thursday. It sounds easy, but I know the testing aspect can throw a wrench into things. Testing appointments have been hard to come by around here. I know people that are waiting until midnight when the appointments go live online, to get appointments 2 days out.
Okay so we have a eufy, non-mapping. So it's not "Smart". Got it on Prime Day I think for $100 bucks, so it was cheaper or as cheap as a regular vacuum. That thing picks up a TON of junk, and goes places we never vacuumed before. But agreed, the thing will go over the same area 5,000 times, and miss other spots completely. Our next one will definitely be a smarter edition, lol.
If your cruise is out of Miami-Dade County, testing here is very easy and very quick. This past month was busy with testing for us and we had rapid tests back within an hour and PCR tests back within 24 hours (if not within hours) every single time. Plus the largest testing place near me is now 24 hours and same-day daytime testing appointments are readily available. All the info is on the miamidade dot gov website.
