  1. I saw that but wondering what I missed. I didn't think she was having any issues that would cause this. Was it from the time she was tripped? Roy
  2. Today's sunrise is from my 2019 Prinsendam Grand Southamerica and Antarctica cruise. January 6 was a sea day from Fort Lauderdale to Santa Marta. Roy

  7. Kathi has posted to her blog and it's very serious. Keep her in your prayers: https://2022-2023hal.blogspot.com/ Roy
  8. Today's report is really awesome. I can't believe it but he will come off the list tomorrow. The Zaandam sailaway today is really awesome. I watched the Miami webcam for @aliaschief but they got essentially no coverage and there were ample missed opportunities. @Heartgrove I did an early February cruise on the Carnival Pride and think you should be ok unless things get really COLD, I do wonder what Carnival is doing now about muster drill on the Spirit Class. That COULD be cold if it's under the lifeboats. Roy
  9. What the Zaandam lost in quantity was made up in quality. After Island I think I'll head over to Miami where our first sailaway master @aliaschief is leaving on Azamara Onward at 5. Roy
  10. My most travelled and favorite remaining BHB on the move. Roy
  11. For the second day I have a sunset photo, both taken almost 1 tear apart from virtually the same place at the onset of a grand voyage. This was January 5, 2018 after embarking Crystal Serenity in Fort Lauderdale for the prelude to the 2-ship World Cruise: Roy

  13. Well, it's Thursday (or Friday Junior as my local news crew calls it) and still warm but with more seasonal weather on the horizon. I'm not a birder and will pass on the Keto but will celebrate George Washington Carver and the Seneca quote. I have not been to Eden and will pass on the curry. My alternative is Salad of Arigula and Frisee, Rack of Lamb, and Strawberry Romanoff as served on MS Prinsendam January 5, 2019. I had forgotten to photograph the desert but the final panel is a couple of cookies from the Lido Ice Cream station. I am pleased that Demar Hamlin is improving but will keep him on the care list until he is breathing unaided.

  15. I have a sunset today rather than a sunrise. It was taken January 4, 2019 after boarding MS Prinsendam for the start of her final Grand South America and Alaska voyage: Any speculation if/when Crystal might do a New England/Canada cruise out of New York or Boston? Roy

  18. Wow! Moved up from 5PM to 3PM. I did a quick check just in time. Roy
  19. Thank you Rich for assembling all the Hump Day fleet report and daily information. I am only fair at trivia, am intrigued at how well people can adapt to braille, and will have spaghetti tonight. I visited Durban on Crystal Serenity in 2014 and was due to return on QM2 in 2020. I'll pass on the quote and the meal. My alternative is Sauteed Pork Chop and Key Lime Pie, my first dinner on MS Prinsendam Grand South America voyage January 5, 2019.

  20. There are few places on earth that can compare with the magic of the White Continent. And a Birthday and Retirement Celebration sound like a very good reason to do it. The flights to Santiago and back from Buenos Aires are taxing but will be rewarded by over 3 weeks of pampering service, lots of wildlife and the drama of a double crossing of the famous Drake Passage. We wish you a wonderful cruise making special memories: Bon Voyage to Oosterdam - 11-Jan-23 - 22 day South America & Antarctica I like vacation - celebrating DH’s birthday & her retirement on board Bon Voyage I Love Vacation !!!!! Have a great cruise and a WONDERFUL time !!!!! Roy (for Jacqui)
