Sunrise getting better!

It’s final packing and will headed to airport soon. Happy Valentines Day to all. We celebrate every day!❤️ Have a great day adios Mexico! One more sunrise!

@StLouisCruisers Sandi As we are dining outdoors I believe you are coming into view. Enjoy the rest of your cruise. Bruce & Sue waving!😁 7:10 PM Another ship coming into view. So will wave again just in case! 😁

Thanks Graham!

@kazuJacqui thanks for the Cherbourg info. Last time there we did the OverLord Tour of the beaches and surrounding area. It was very emotional. I would have to check with Sue but I think we are visiting Ypres this time or something like that. Curious how did you know we were going there this summer on our intensive France cruise on Azamara Journey? Prior to that cruise we are doing Intensive Spain starting in Barcelona. As much as you loved the Prisendam I sense you would enjoy an Azamara cruise. Thanks, Bruce

I was standing in line to board on a recent cruise and started talking to man next to me. He introduced himself and he said you won’t believe this but my last name is Butt and yup mom & dad named me Harry Butt!😃

My last in a series of Cancun sunrises!😎

Good Morning! It was interesting watching the Super Bowl in Spanish but missed the commercials. It’s going to be a beautiful last day in Cancun and we will do our usual poolside relaxation. Saw a cruise ships light this morning so I waved to Sandi! Off to my lounger to laze and enjoy the day. Thanks to all who are filling in and prayers for those in need.

Never say never but in our case we are just taking a break from what after way too many Hal cruises became rather repetitional and mundane. How many times watching same dance shows or Planet Earth? Or same dining menus. Not a problem for all but get’s old for some of us frequent cruisers. Still have some Hal cruises booked but an other line as well. A little change and diversion is good.

Watching the Super Bowl in the Spanish language is a challenge but at least referee’s call are in English!😊 Miss the commercials.

Thanks Rich! B.

Woops!

It had to be today.

Thanks I had forgotten that!

And just like it’s become a beautiful day!😎

Do we know how Koningsdam got to West Coast this season?

Last summer we toured the main Delft Factory in Amsterdam. Name escapes me but they really emphasized the tremendous back log they have. Industry was pretty much shut down during Pandemic and many workers got other jobs. Could be same problem as Hal’s Delft Tile supplier.

Koningsdam is currently on a circle Hawaii cruise. To get to California they probably transited through the Panama Canal. Whether it was the new canal or old I’m not sure but to my knowledge it did not go around the tip of South America. Correct me if I’m wrong.

Good morning! It’s sleep in morning! It’s 68 F, cloudy and windy! Sunrise looks like it will happen but will be pretty subdued to the eye! We had a spell of heavy rain after 5:00 PM last night and the winds howled. So will have breakfast, attend on-line church and see what happens later in the day. We will get the Super Bowl on TV but it will broadcast in Spanish! That should be interesting and probably no commercials. Definitely will be different! So enjoy the day and the Big Game if so inclined. Bruce

Bon Voyage! Enjoy!

That is udderly ridiculous!

Today’s sunrise. Previous post a couple of repeats posted in error.

Good morning! Per SIL who is on Koningsdam they are in Hilo today as they were yesterday due to high seas and unable to tender. They missed Maui due to same reasons. In essence there ports of call have been all mixed up or missed. Rain is in the forecast this afternoon so we are by pool awaiting sunrise. Picture to follow. Have a great day!

Bon Voyage! We’ll be keeping an eye out for you as you pass by Cancun! Enjoy! B.

Welcome home Graham! Did you enjoy that monster ship?
