MS Eurodam & MS Nieuw Amsterdam Sail-Away Dec7, 2014

[65 Gator]

Great closeups of Shrimpboat... POA threatened to "be seen" with them.

[rkacruiser]

Curious about NADM tooting since there are a boatload of HAL big wigs on board including the new President. New Captain as well... 200 Travel Agents ...

 

Very interesting to know! If Captain van Zaane is indeed at the helm, they have one of their most experienced Masters. He was the take-out Captain for the Amsterdam and the Nieuw Amsterdam.

 

Sounds like he did an OK job of toots.

[PathfinderEss]

4 toots from the NA.

Well, shoot that was a quick pass by our CC members. bummer

 

I only got one pic.

[Mumsysailor]

Is that Joanie's and Crew News?

[thetexasaggiecruiser]

I clued into that about two seconds ago. duuuuh. YOu can tell I don't use it except when travelling, right? but it does take good pics. thnx.

 

I didn't know about it either - I just accidentally made it work, glad you got it where you could see! Hope the laptop comes back to life. You've had bad juju with electronic devices this fall, one way or another. Maybe Santa will make things better. :)

Saw shrimpboat and another couple out on the verandah.

My screen froze up just in time to miss them.

Beautiful Nieuw Amsterdam....

 

This is the way it is supposed to be..... three long blasts and followed by one short blast.

 

This is TRADITION for any ship over the world for over a century... it is a greeting and a farewell.

[erewhon]

There goes NA, the next HAL ship to come down under?2016.:)

[kazu]

Does Sapper1 et Al have a flag? I think I've seen it already.

 

yes, they were with shrimboat123.

 

hang on, it's not a great shot. but I will upload it.

[Mumsysailor]

They're all in a hurry again today.

[Krazy Kruizers]

Only 4 toots.

[PathfinderEss]

I also saw shirmpboat and I think I saw Joanie and Crew News on the back.

........and here comes Love Boat, making lots of noise.:D

[cruz chic]

Glad I caught the sailaway but the close up was way to quick on the canadians. I hope everyone has a wonderful cruise.

[erewhon]

The big loveboat sure made a statement!:) And she still going.

[Mumsysailor]

Scrapnana - 6 Love Boat tunes so far.

[Krazy Kruizers]

Wow -- 7 "Love Boat" toots

Shrimboat123 and sapper1

And, frankly, what I would expect if Captain van Zaane is the Master.

 

I would like to know who the Master of the Regal Princess is. Royal Princess' take-out was an Englishman. I wonder if this person is Italian. He/she certainly likes his Love Boat theme!

[Krazy Kruizers]

Moving them our fast today.
