Checking in - hope it just stays overcast and doesn't rain a bunch at sail-away time!

 

Smooth Sailing! :) :) :)

[Copper10-8]

Someone starting their 1530 safety drill and, by the sounds of it, EUDM is in the middle of theirs. Staff Captain Gert has a very distinctive voice ;)

Skidding in with my egg salad sandwich. Hope I haven't missed anything. :)

Fine folks still can't make it to their drill in time despite at least three p/a announcements starting 30 min prior, a never ending tale

Because "they" are on vacation and can do things on their own time.

Even hobbling with one good foot and a crutch, I made mine on time.

Black smoke from NA.

I got an e-mail from a friend who mostly sails on Princess.

They are doing a back-to-back-to-back.

They do not do that 1-2-3 thing that HAL does.

And they only have to go to one lifeboat drill.

16 pax missing ?which ship.

And, in doing so, extending the time of the drill and holding up everyone who did make an effort to be at their station

Looking forward to seeing you both in Picton for lunch onboard and a ships tour. We'll make it happen!:)

[Krazy Kruizers]

Need a zoom in.

HAL is the only line that I have had the 1-2-3 drill. On Cunard's world voyage I only had to go to one drill in 120 days. On HAL I had three in 21 days (but I did get to hear "Silence on deck!" three times:D.)

What is the 1-2-3 thing that HAL does?

 

It's funny listening to the captains talking about out-tooting each other.

 

Smooth Sailing! :) :) :)

[Copper10-8]

Italian (Pacific) vs Brit (Regal) Princess captains! Awesome dialogue! :D

[erewhon]

Captain's discussing loveboat songs and singing!:D

[Boytjie]

Pacific and Regal chatting about toots and pizza?

[Vict0riann]

And the ship on the World Cruise leaving late - but the passengers will understand!:)
