I am sure he will do a fine job in your absence. I see six ships in port today. Two Royal Caribbean ships, One Celebrity ship, the Royal Princess and of course the Nieuw Amsterdam and the Eurodam. I see they have switched places today.

Good morning, it looks like a grey, cloudy day in Ft. Lauderdale today; hopefully we will see sunshine for sail-away!

 

Smooth Sailing! :) :) :)

Good morning Chief. Thanks for the reminder. Hope to be able to catch some of the sail a way.

Morning Chief, just got off Eurodam. Sitting at FLL waiting for flight back to the frozen north. Don't think I will be home in time to watch her leave. Had a great week with beautiful weather .

A lovely couple I know are sailing on the Nw AMSTERDAM on the 25th sailing. I keep telling them that they must watch at Lauderdale Webcam... every Sunday. Lots of fun to see the weekly HAL parade. Always much more beautiful than the 'others'.

 

As a 'purist' I like the horns i in the very simple 3 long blasts.... and even better if repeated. Those three blasts are such a real regal parade of HAL ships. The ships are more elegant. Don't you agree?

 

Can't wait to have VEENDAM again in Bermuda this summer. Friday departure and sit on Albuoy's dock and watch VEENDAMsailing....with the horns.... always 'traditional' and replies by the tugs.

 

Have fun this afternoon!

Angelcat, welcome back. We had trouble picking you out of the crowd when you left so I don't have any screenshots. Hopefully someone else did...

 

Ready for today's SailAway...

If your a jazz aficionado than the Eurodam has a pretty impressive line up for this cruise.

I agree with you Stephen 100%. Fondly recall docking downtown many years ago on an NCL cruise from LA to NYC. Such a beautiful pristine place. Sure glad we got to dock down town. We even got to see a tall ship training vessel that was docked with us sail away in the early morning under sail. Quite a site. My husband was invited on board and received a tot of rum. That made him very happy. We also met a very funny guy that the Cruise Director called Dickie. He owned a nice sweater shop on the street right in front of where we docked. He was able to visit and came to the bar 3 sheets to the winds and all at 10:30 in the morning and offered everyone a 20% discount.

No problem:) I thought my daughter had mentioned something about Natalie Cole coming on board and she wanted to see her sing.

[gigianne]

Looking forward to watching the blue hulled ships leave a foggy port today. I am also watching the Panama Canal web cam - Amsterdam coming up to Miraflores locks.

[erewhon]

Ships clearly visible again.:D
