Intercruises Family

   - Blog  #4 So here we are, stuck in the middle… Waiting for positive statistics, wearing a mask, and avoiding physical contact as much as possible.  If you feel like you are living in the twilight zone, you are not alone. Staying connected  through tech is a huge bonus but waking up every day wondering what I can listen to, watch, clean, create, or eat has to be getting old. One possible idea is to go for a walk and check out the parks near you.   All sorts of things are happening in our local parks that do not involve any touching, talking or distancing.  Nature is putting on a show for us all on its own.   All you need to do is show up to get a front row seat to a blooming organic ballet of flowering trees and winding paths.

The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine assembled an expert committee to analyze and research these findings....

    - Blog # 2 Tech in the Time of Corona, Staying Separate-While Connected: is eminently more important than ever before. We are lucky to live in a time where we can connect easily everywhere.  In this regard information being power, then being connected is the path to seeing this through.   Zooming with friends and family and working remotely, is now our new reality, as once predicted by Jared Spataro, VP at Microsoft .  That said, we have the oppertunity through our technology and especially our actions, to use it to help ourselves and assist others. United in this effort we can all see this through together. Streaming movies, data, and news on Netflix, You Tube, Zoom and more, for entertainment and information, is how we stay informed and connected as we move forward.  In many communities Artists are taking to You-Tube and Instagram, forming a human bond to spread compassion, allowing all of us to be separate yet united and informed...

   - Blog # 1 Intercruises family Alan Roditi and Shirley McEvoy working on a Newsletter for inspiration and interest to all our fellow employees, we invite you to the conversation. During this trying time of being at home, some with children to entertain, and some with extra family to include, all listening to news.  We would like to take a moment and invite you to share some of the ways you and your families are coping and helping others? Have you discovered anything special in your neighborhood or volunteered in any way that you would like to share with others at Intercruises?  Many of us are discovering clever ways our local vendors are doing business or changing their business to help local communities.
