Rockee4055 Posted April 14, 2013 #1 Share Posted April 14, 2013 I'm sitting here with my iPad watching the port cams at Port Everglades. The Freedom is sitting there just waiting to push off and I don't know how I will ever make it through another 6 - 7 weeks until our departure. It's almost depressing to watch them all float down the channel without me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KrabbyKelly Posted April 14, 2013 #3 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Apparently, in my quest to torture myself further, I scheduled a cruise 8 weeks after my dog is due to have puppies. Luckily, I have more homes than I will puppies, so all are spoken for-and they wont even be born till this week. However, I will be up all night and all day once they deliver assisting big momma-which means more hours on cruise critic, watching port cams, writing packing lists, packing and repacking etcetcetc. Luckily, most of the pre-cruise shopping is done.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colorado Kat Posted April 14, 2013 #6 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Just remember. Better 6 weeks before the cruise than 6 weeks after. Anticipation is fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ccruisequeen Posted April 14, 2013 #10 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Two weeks and I'm already packed. Listening to the Miracle's Muster Drill horn from my condo, where I can watch it and the Inspiration come and go! Tomorrow I see Inspiration come and go 4x, then I can board! I wish I could sleep the time away, fasting off 17 lbs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poptart Posted April 15, 2013 #14 Share Posted April 15, 2013 I searched and searched yesterday and could not find a port cam that would work in Tampa!! :mad::eek: When I sailed the Dream, I had 2 or 3 I watched. I could see her leave the port then on another as she passed by the beach. What a beautiful sight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's almost depressing to watch them all float down the channel without me! Not sure how much it would help, but see if you can get someone play "Battleship" with you. Not exactly cruise related, but sort of related to being on the ocean. You could pretend you and your opponent are competing cruise lines (ex. Carnival vs. Royal Caribbean).:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bowlman67 Posted April 15, 2013 #19 Share Posted April 15, 2013 I wach the cams every weekend. We don't sail on the freedom till july so see it every weeking helps the time pass.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyber Kat Posted April 15, 2013 #20 Share Posted April 15, 2013 Just remember. Better 6 weeks before the cruise than 6 weeks after. Anticipation is fun! I think this is true! I want my sail date to get here, but I don't want my cruise to be over - I just want to be ON it! Sitting on my balcony - DOD in hand looking forward to 4 sea days and 3 ports and trying to decide what I'm going to eat - that's where I want to be.
