I was watching Memphis State (whoops I mean Univ of Memphis) defeat Ole Miss. Go Tigers

[Mumsysailor]

Looks quite empty up at our waving spot.

[canadianbear]

Yikes already!!!!

[summer slope]

I've got the sound up and my laptop is vibrating from the wonderful horns.

[Lizzie68]

Yikes already!!!!

 

Yep! And I forgot to turn down the volume so I jumped out of my seat, almost!

[dfish]

Big improvement over yesterday.

[monina01]

You can actually see him pushing the button on the port side bridge wing panel :)

All those people out on deck must be deafened by all the tooting!:D:eek::D

 

Do you think that couple behind the glass had requested a wave? They are the only ones Lou and Dave really zoomed in on.

Don't hear much from the condos. Maybe they can't get a toot in!

[canadianbear]

Nice driving by captain or staff captain :)

 

 

I agree...it's interesting to watch.

[mamaofami]

Westy never disappoints. Anyone counting?

[ger_77]

A glorious sound !!!

 

Smooth Sailing! :) :) :)

It wasn't that bad really - remember? We just couldn't talk on the upper decks but it was fine on the balconies.

[PathfinderEss]

Wow, I gave up after 60 toots.

[keeponcruising]

Oh my God, that was the most I ever heard.

[CowPrincess]

I've got the sound up and my laptop is vibrating from the wonderful horns.

 

My cat was vibrating -- I need to figure out how to lower the sound if I'm going to watch Sailaways regularly. Or she will be calling the SPCA on me :eek:

[monina01]

Once again awesome!!!!! :)

[canadianbear]

Yep! And I forgot to turn down the volume so I jumped out of my seat, almost!

 

 

:D:D That's hilarious...spill any tea? :)

[alibabacruisers]

That was great! Thanks for the tooting Westerdam! Love waving to all those people too...DH thinks I am crazy...lol.:)

[kazu]

Westy never disappoints. Anyone counting?

 

 

I tried but I lost count at 149 and there were a LOT of long toots which should count double (but I didn't ).

[erewhon]

Well over a hundred I would say.:):)

[Lizzie68]

Another great job by our favourite captain. When he talked to us about the horn blowing, he was quite animated - he really enjoys it. The only other person he allows to do it is his daughter, LOL.

[Copper10-8]

Stern clear of the breakwater/only anchor parties left - next up departure debrief and pilot drop off

[CowPrincess]

I'm happy for everyone who got to hear the birds :)

 

Also happy for all those people sailing today!
