Norwegian Epic is leaving in Miami. No sound.

What was the plaque? Something to do with tooting?

 

yes, I believe when Lisa was on board her cruise critic group gave the ship the Queen of Horns plaque. there were some nice pics on cc about it :)

Thanks, Kazu. Was it some time ago? BTW, are we going to see some pictures of Marley?

I think that plaque needs to be removed from the Westerdam A Deck and given to the Eurodam. Since that is where Captain Henk is at now. I am sure we will seem some nice tooting tomorrow.

 

Lisa I thought you did give it to Captain Henk and not "the ship". HAL needs to have him conduct training classes for all the other Captains. Tooting should be a requirement!

[innlady1]

Thanks for bringing that forward, Lisa!

Unless it was removed they placed it with the other plaques down on A Deck. I do not know anyone on board the Westerdam or I might consider having it moved. I do how ever know someone that is good friends with Captain Henk and she is boarding the Eurodam tomorrow. I told her she need to make sure that Captain Henk toots the horn a lot :D

yes, once I figure out how to do it so they are not thumbnails I have been doing a mini chronicle on my FB timeline on Marley. You have to see him when we first got him as now his head is punkie :) (huge head, ears too big with very fluffy ears) He's getting gangly already ! I will post some soon if no one minds :) He's grown a lot. but he's still a baby. Every time he goes to the vet he's put on at least another 10 pounds :eek: He had a minor eye infection and was just there two weeks ago and my vet wants to follow up, I'm scared to see what those scales say this time:eek:

[Boytjie]

I am late... again.

[Scrapnana]

I am late... again.

 

You didn't miss anything in the tooting department!

[kazu]

I am late... again.

 

I hate to say it - but you didn't miss much. One toot at best. Sad, sad, sad.

 

Catch tomorrow with Captain Henk and there should be a nice tooting (I hope)

Both Crown Princess and Carnival Freedom are on the move.

Have you been on the thread "How to Post Photos" on CC? I found it very helpful.

[Scrapnana]

Let's see if Carnival has anything to contribute.

[kazu]

Well Mr. Marley is sitting by the door (and we all know what that means). He hasn't rung the bell yet, but he knows I am here and doesn't think he needs to (he is a smart dog). So, I guess I better take care of business (if you get my drift) and then feed him.

 

Thanks chief for starting the thread and to Lou and Dave for a great webcam.

 

And thanks my fellow sail a way addicts for making it fun:)

 

Someone has to take care of this big puppy :) Hasta manana!

Yes, I did at one time Ann, I have to go back as I tried to do it without looking on a test and it didn't work. I will check - have no fear:D

 

Until tomorrow!

[Vict0riann]

I looked at that blog, and the plaque does say "Congratulations, Westerdam", doesn't mention Captain Keijer. He'll need his own plaque!

 

Whole lot of tooting going on!

[Scrapnana]

3 deep toots for Carnival. Best job of the day for Princess.

[Boytjie]

Princess taking over the tooting?

[rkacruiser]

I thought Carnival Freedom tooted a bit late, but she did toot.

 

As of now, Crown Princess gets my vote for the best toots today.
