Thanks for all the comments wishing us well on our journey home. But the Argentinian authorities are not done with us.
We were sleeping soundly when, at 3:45 am, the captain came on the speakers with an announcement that the Argentinian authorities were requiring fresh temperature test for all passengers so they would be coming to our cabins and we were to remain there. What a wake up call! I’m wondering how many people they have doing this since when we did it yesterday morning, it took over 4 hours, using 4 stations with a steady stream of passengers waiting in line.
So we waited, nodding off to sleep a bit with a very long travel day ahead of us.
At 5:00 am, another all-cabin announcement that the health forms we were to turn in should now be placed in our cabin mailboxes for immediate collection.
Announcement #3 came at 5:40 am and was for Argentinian passengers only. No more going back to sleep!
Finally at 7:25 am the captain announced that that we had been cleared!! So, without having our temperatures rechecked, we hustled to get breakfast before packing our carry-on's and heading to the Elite lounge.

I have no idea why the Argentinian authorities are so afraid of this ship! If any place is clean from Covad-19, it's the people on this ship! DO they r=treat all the passengers arriving on airlines this way?
Who knows. The shades of the Diamond Princess, I guess....
Bill, what flights did you get? I keep hearing everything is canceled. Worried about you and Mary!!
I just checked flight status and all our flights are marked as On Time.
The captain just announced that if anyone gets to the airport and their flight is cancelled, they will be brought back to the ship.
Hang in there! Each step brings you closer to being home!
Will be thinking of you....especially now!
