Krazy Kruizers Posted November 18, 2016 #2 Share Posted November 18, 2016 Don't know if I can make it. If the weather isn't too bad, we will go out for dinner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare POA1 Posted November 18, 2016 #3 Share Posted November 18, 2016 Thanks for the reminder. The Eurodam is "our ride" in a month, so we've been looking forward to seeing her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happily@Sea Posted November 18, 2016 #4 Share Posted November 18, 2016 It looks like Eurodam has Westie's old Saturday schedule. [she used to be on Sunday with her sister Signature ship - Nieuw Amsterdam.] I was supposed to be on Eurodam in Jan but it got chartered out from underneath me, and I ended up on the NA [with a huge OBC :D]. My Koningsdam also got chartered out, so my 28-day almost B2B got changed to a 32-day w/a 4-day layover, by Roy's group. It's a good thing he's a fellow addict or I might take offense. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Vict0riann Posted November 19, 2016 #16 Share Posted November 19, 2016 We just got off the Prinsendam, and are at the airport waiting for our flight to Toronto. We had a great 44 days on the Elegant Explorer and visited some amazing ports. Roy, our Captain, Chris Turner told us that he would be moving back to Zaandam with us in BA! We were in port twice with Oosterdam (in code orange at the time), and once with Eurodam. We managed to avoid ailments this time on Prinsendam, so all is forgiven. The crew were very careful, especially with what was going on on Oosterdam.... Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happily@Sea Posted November 19, 2016 #17 Share Posted November 19, 2016 Poor Prinsendam is blocked out from all cameras by the Freedom otS - big lummox :eek:. Hope it leaves on time so we'll get to see the Elegant Explorer before it gets dark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happily@Sea Posted November 19, 2016 #18 Share Posted November 19, 2016 We get to see the stern of Oosterdam at Key West - but no sail-in. Disappointing after the great job they did with the Nieuw Amsterdam earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happily@Sea Posted November 19, 2016 #19 Share Posted November 19, 2016 They just moved the camera at Key West to include both DAM ships. From this angle, Oosterdam looks much larger than NA - that doesn't happen often. Over on FLL - SW, Eurodam is performing their mandatory lifeboat inspection. They are on the radio.

Spunky946 Posted November 19, 2016 #20 Share Posted November 19, 2016 Looks like nice days in Ft. Lauderdale and Key west. I'll try to be back later, but kids activities might get in the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare rafinmd Posted November 19, 2016 #23 Share Posted November 19, 2016 Sure looks nicer in Ft. Lauderdale than it is in Southampton. Both QM2 and QE are here today. I hadn't realized that QE was in town today, doing a 3-day getaway before returning for me. I considered booking it but she was sold out. I'd also hoped to go out to the waterfront and watch the Queens leave but not in this cold rain. I heard QE toot as I was returning from dinner but saw nothing. I see Harmony OTS is docked backwards. I assume it's like the Allure and only designed for starboard access. When docked this way people have to follow a zig-zag path to get on board.
