Thanks, Erewhon, we're really looking forward to it, and visiting my DH's birthplace, Yangon!

Maasdam is so much smaller than Nooordam.

Just as yesterday, some small boats in what I would assume to be the Maasdam's security zone.

 

Has the security zone regulations at Port Everglades changed from what they had been after 9/11?

[Krazy Kruizers]

Finally she is heading into the channel.

[startwin]

There they are!!

PE always provides a (sometimes two) Broward County SO boat(s) that wil keep traffic away from outgoing cruise ships. Frequently, the USCG will be out also doing the same
