Tempting, but I have travel booked for this year. I don't see it for 2021 on the website, unfortunately.

I found a few for May 2021 on a TA website. The fares are pretty decent, but I have qualms about staying in their sardine can cabins. 😵

By the way, LTNS .. how ya been?

Good to see you're having a great time. We did this itinerary on Regal 2 years ago, and loved it. 

BTW, how did you make out with the embarkation brew? 😇😎

I am sure the check in people would like to finish their work and go home.

Could be they just started. 

As someone who did the afternoon shift, I have first hand experience. 

All it takes is patience, and not watching the clock.  😵

I'll be here for Nieuw A. 

Love night time departures, the ships look beautiful. 

In the meantime, I'll get my fix from the San Pedro webcam, and watch Royal Princess leave.

It was ffffreaking fffreeeezing on wednesday last when we got off the Koningsdam.  Papers said it was coldest in years!

I know. I was following the weather updates, and couldn't believe what I was seeing. 😵  

But it wasn't the 1st time this happened. I remember all the weird cold spells that the south has been getting.

Webcam page is showing 25 degrees - I presume that is celsius and not fahrenheit 

Yessir, 75F.

it really does look like helis and a blimp on the Fr Lauderdale camera!  Anyone else seeing it, or do I need to go for eye test?

Are you eating those mushrooms again?  😵🤣

Yes, they sprayed window cleaner and vigorously scrubbed it.  The cleaning was badly needed.

Maybe we should all chip in, and make sure they have a constant supply of Windex.  🤣🙃

At least the weather improved.  🌴😎

LOL on the t-shirts!

Aren't they a riot? 

I hope they're still available the next time I'm there. 🤣😇

Thanks for sharing your thoughts and time. The photos came out great!

Veendam is pulling away ... 

Even the roosters are saying Bon Voyage!  😎😋

Thanks for sharing your thoughts, and welcome to HAL! 

PS ... 

Did you ever catch that mouse in your cabin?   🤣🙃

Cleared up nicely. That's what I like about South Florida .. those quick passing showers.  🌴💦

Yep, it's a shower. (After adjusting the sound, it became obvious. Duh ... LOL)

Either that's fog, or one heck of a rainstorm! 😱

Guess I'll miss sail away this afternoon. 

It's 68deg here in Central Jersey, and I'll be outside enjoying this brief taste of spring!  🌴😎

I have a pair of orange socks, does that count?

Just wear a pair of these and you'll be fine.................dude

 

"Dude" is right!  

I'll be tripping the entire voyage.

(Keep all inhalants away from me ... 🙃)

For Newport ... 

A tour of the Breakers is pretty interesting, followed by a leisurely stroll on the Cliff Walk. Excellent views from there.

The designers of that carpet must have over-indulged in magic mushrooms.  😵🌚🤖👽👻☠️

They're forced to eat raw herring.  🐟

No, they're forced to cut down the tallest tree in the forest with a herring ...
