Several places. On cruise critic I will have threads on the relevant cruise lines for their parts of the journey, and also a thread for the entire experience under "Friends of the Prinsendam" here:

Great - thanks! I have your amazonextended.wordpress site bookmarked from your last cruise. Wasn't sure you would use that again.

[Krazy Kruizers]

Well -- if the schedule isn't changed and nothing runs late, I will be here by 4 to watch the sail aways.

You have done a wonderful job Roy!!

[kazu]

I should be here for a good part of it:)

 

Thanks so much Roy for the heads up and thank you for doing a great job on the sail a ways:) It's so appreciated by all of the addicts:D

[mamaofami]

I hope to be here too. Thanks for doing this Roy, while chief has been out to sea. Have a fabulous time on your cruise adventures.

In Lady and DH have also docked in port everglades! Disembarked the NA after 21 days on board. Sitting on a bus since 8:00 waiting for the land and sea shorex to leave. Viewing the Eurodam now at pier 26. NA is across the road. Fly home at 5:13. So I will miss sail away.lol!.

Sheila and Fred, glad you're home safe to Ft. Lauderdale. Safe flight home.

[aliaschief]

Roy thanks for hosting Sail-Away and best wishes for great cruises. Only two custom agents really slowed disembarkation.

 

Looks like fewer custom agents are permanent as they even have signs up apologizing due to funding cut backs.

Welcome home to both of you! Are you homesick for the ships yet? :D

 

Hope to be here to watch. Great job, Roy!

 

I noticed a HAL advertisement on the banner underneath the PE webcam when I opened the page.... think they are catching on? ;)

[0bnxshs]

I wonder if NA is running a fire drill for the crew as just now I can see a spray of water as if from a fire hose coming from what looks like the promenade deck off the port side of her into the water....

[IRL_Joanie]

1st thing: Thanks Roy for not only the heads up, but also the 2 links:) Have them bookmarked now:) I'll be here watching as our DAM ships depart.

 

2nd thing: Will see you the 25th or 26th, which ever is best for you:)

 

3rd and last but not the least important:D: WELCOME HOME CHIEF and MRS CHIEF!!!!

Safe travels to you two Sheila:D I bet you weren't quite ready to get off the ship;)

[Scrapnana]

To those of you who just disembarked, I hope you had a fantastic time!

 

Roy, thanks so much for your wonderful sailaway threads.

 

I'll be here for today's sailaways.

[Vict0riann]

Welcome home, and Bon Voyage, as appropriate! I hope to be here today, but may be in and out, as we are entertaining this evening (DS's birthday).

[kazu]

Looks like a nice day in Port Everglades - certainly a nicer, warmer day than here;)

[Vict0riann]

And a busy port - Carnival Freedom looks as if she is pretty well trapped! (I thought I was seeing double, but it is NA and Eurodam.)

[PathfinderEss]

Thanks Rafinmd for the reminder and for doing such a stealer job doing the sailaways while Chief was off doing his cruise.

Should be here to see those 'dam' ships leave.:D

[startwin]

Thanks Roy, for today and for keeping things going while Chief was cruising:) Looks like a busy day at Port Everglades. See you later.

[Scrapnana]

Looks like the Princess ship is having a mini regatta with her life boats.

 

[Vict0riann]

It's always fun watching them do their little dance, isn't it?

[monina01]

I should be here for the sailaway.

 

We just switched over to winter time last night, is the USA also on winter time now?

 

Welcome home to those who have returned!

 

And thanks for doing the threads, Roy....you did good :)

We are not on winter time yet here in my part of Canada - they wait until after the trick and treating to change the time to make it dark early for the little ons;)

[rafinmd]

monina01, like Canada we move our clocks next week. As I write this it is 1:47 our time. Good for me that we have the extra week because I sail down the Hudson at Midnight Saturday. I'll be glad to have the extra hour after that.
