Not too much of an eventful day. I’ve continued to update my blog, and will post an article or two tonight over Rachel and I’s honeymoon for those interested on how it began, day by day.

Smoked chicken and Brussels sprouts, mashed potatoes, and some strawberry cake. We also got a letter from the DMAT team, water, tea, and some popcorn!
Thank you DMAT, y’all are awesome!
On a side note, I will work on compiling a list of all updates from other countries/the Diamond Princess that I can find. I will also reply to all of your comments.
Still no news on if we are positive or not for Covid-19.
