Rare Tom-n-Cheryl Posted November 17, 2009 #1 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Well -- the storm that Mach and others enjoyed during their 2 night CTN must have been REALLY bad, as the (Dream) WEBCAM has not worked since Saturday. :eek: It would be nice to see it now, as she FINALLY heads to Florida - I am sure that Lido deck is finally getting a workout! Heading to Pt. Canaveral to "welcome" the Dream when she docks here tomorrow as a port of call on her first (of two) 8-day sailings from NYC -- some other CC'ers will be there as well. I can't wait until she starts sailing from here on 12/3/09... actually I am counting the days! ;) Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As Melissa mentioned in one of her posts the internet connection was 'wonky'... The antenna is stationary and when the ship rolls heavily the link to the satellite breaks and so does the image from the cam. So, if the connection isn't up when the image is scheduled to update there's no image!! :) Say hello to that large, lovely lady for me... :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great guy and a darn fine cruise director. Do NOT miss the Pasta Bar! It's great. Also, hit the supper club.

Rare Tom-n-Cheryl Posted November 17, 2009 Author #8 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Where can I see these??? YIKES... it was in one (of MANY pages he posted). I think it was during his Transatlantic sailing (if not then check out his Med pics). Below is a starting point and, if nothing else, PLENTY of good shots to be found!

Tom No problemo. :D They actually served lunch 3 times in Chef's Art during the crossing, but I understand the menu was always the same. We knew a number of people that did eat in Chef's Art with no complaints from anyone. Still a great experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martina was your headwaiter or a hostess in the dining room? You captured some classic Ken photos. I know what you mean about missing the dining room experience (when it's GOOD)! We have had some great teams in the MDR - to the point that we almost felt like we were "cheating" on them if we missed a meal in there!

DGP1111 Posted November 18, 2009 #24 Share Posted November 18, 2009 THE WEBCAMS ARE BACK UP !!! :D :D Woo-Hoo !!!!!! :D . FYI, Martina indicated this is her last contract. Going... going... After all the great pics you took of this server who seemed to have a lot of moxie, and seemed to really enjoy being with your 'eternal' table of long-term cruisers . . . . I'm going to look her up when I sail (along with T-n-C) in a few weeks. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carncovecruiser Posted November 18, 2009 #25 Share Posted November 18, 2009 Martina is a senior headwaiter (if there is such a thing). Very professional and the best dancer. From Czech. Tell her Mr Bill and Miss Elizabeth say hello. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
