If you wave the banner I can't read it!

Yeah, was getting a little mal de mereish there! ;p

Noisy young lady!

Looks like the ladies with the 5 O'clock backward banner, had found where 5 o'clock was!:'):')

Thanks, Scrapnana!

Is there a webcam in San Diego? I am sailing from there on Thursday and my granddaughter wants to know. I've just started doing these HAL sail-a-ways recently.

Checking-in! Silhouette is moving!

And, a bunch of squeaky tooters!! :')

Underway! Shift colors!

Checking-in.

Lori's agency was in Little Rock, Arkansas.

Lori and another agent got together back in '98 and formed a group cruise. That is where I first met her. A lovely lady and a darn good cruise agent.

Although Lori was not closely tied with that group for a while, we still cruise together 2-3 times a year 18+ years later.

She will be missed.

Great tour with interesting highlights. Thanks for taking the time.

I was sort of worried that the guy in the pale blue shirt/dk blue sweater was stalking you. Then realized he must have been a HAL employee assigned to "guide" you.

That is a really neat view of Tampa. Should be a fun sail-a-way!

Thanks for all the well wishes. I am so looking forward to this "bucket list" item.

This is getting to be like the beltway in DC! :')

Bye Kazu.

One down, one to go . . . . if'n you only count the Dam ships. :D

Would it be too much to ask for a zoom?

Yeah, looks like someone is asleep at the wheel.;p

Rotterdam away.:)

Was just gonna ask that.

Nobody moving yet.

I have always had good luck using the ship's laundry. And, I agree with J'villeGal in wishing I could have the same service at home.

Checking in from the "frozen tundra" where we heard our first robins yesterday.

 

Smooth Sailing! :) :) :)

They left here about 2 weeks ago. At that time, I was driving by a local church and there were literally 100's of them on the church grounds. I think they may have been waiting around for the minister to bless their flights. :halo: :halo:

Checking in!

Great thread. Lots and lots of really good vlogs, vids, etc.

Copper 10-8,

While waiting for sail-away today and if you have a minute, could you tell me which officers will be aboard the Veendam when we sail on 6 Apr 17? Please!

We have to wave to each other. I'll look for the toot banner and you can look for my white flag.

White Flag? You are not surrendering, are you? :eek:

Unfortunately, reviews are nothing more than personal opinion (in most cases). Some are great, some are horrible. The truth of the matter is that facts usually lie somewhere in the middle. I actually prefer to read those reviews that are 3 star. The 5 star reviewer sees nothing wrong while the 1 star sees nothing good. Certainly, look through both the good and bad . . but look for facts - not opinions.

I actually believe that a good, honest review will have the excellent through the negatives.

Would you book an OV on a 5 day cruise to Key West/Cozumel to see if we like Celebrity for a couple in there 30s . I believe the ship was the infinity and the price was 769pp with the drink package

For that reason and that reason alone, I would think about it. A 5 day cruise IMO is just a tease.

"Twere" it me, I would book a 7 day cruise. Not only gives you two more days, it gives you 48 hours more to decide if Celebrity is for you. ;p
