Rare rafinmd Posted June 21, 2018 #4 Share Posted June 21, 2018 WOW! I can't believe how early they are, both Symphony and Westie in the harbor about 5:30... BTW. there will likely be no closups on Symphony balconies. She's currently on a "clothing-optional: charter. Roy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Scrapnana Posted June 21, 2018 Author #5 Share Posted June 21, 2018 I missed all the excitement. I was wondering if Westerdam would be early like Noordam was last week since they were doing the same itinerary. Thanks for the photo, Roy.

Rare rafinmd Posted June 21, 2018 #6 Share Posted June 21, 2018 Just wondering, Kathi. With me at scout camp next week and Carole at sea how would you feel about having just one thread for the entire week? I will have very limited internet but would bookmark the thread and at least check in on it to have a look at what's going from time to time. I DO want to try to check in some time Friday and get a shot of the Volendam and Symphony together but will have very limited participation. I am guessing that Carole is just about arriving in New York now and will be on the train to Montreal most of tomorrow. Roy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare rafinmd Posted June 22, 2018 #10 Share Posted June 22, 2018 Works for me. When are you leaving? Sunday morning (until Saturday noon). By AIS it looks like Westerdam and Zaandam are almost going to pass each other as Zaandam heads for her anchorage. Roy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roy Nope, didn't arrive until almost 1pm, missed my connecting train ride at 1:15 and 2:15. You must go from Penn Sta to Gr Central sta if you are going west. Luggage that I wouldn't have needed to pick-up on my origial schedule - didn't get put out for almost an hour and then the extremely slow taxi ride between stations When they called me to tell about the change, I should have re-booked for Bosion and got to Albany that way. What a frustrating mess in NYC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happily@Sea Posted June 22, 2018 #20 Share Posted June 22, 2018 Well, I'll see you when I see you. I'm not sure what is available internet-wise in the wilds of the Adirondacks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a frustrating mess in NYC. That track work and relocation to Grand Central is a real pain. I'm guessing you were planning to to to Albany today and board the Adirondack there which sounded like a good plan at the time. I haven't ridden the Adirondack northbound for 15 years but the last time I took it southbound I got off at Poughkeepsie and continued the next day from there. My next trip I'll be on the Maple Leaf (July 11) and then the Canadian to Vancouver. I stay in New York overnight (New Yorker right across the street from Penn Station) and must board in Grand Central at 6:40. After the train got moved I think I would have changed to overnight on that trip at Poughkeepsie as well except that I have Broadway tickets for the 10th.. Sounds like the Symphony will be leaving a lot sooner than I expected so I'll keep watching.. Roy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare rafinmd Posted June 22, 2018 #24 Share Posted June 22, 2018 And the Symphony's gone too (My next Symphony sailaway will be from on deck). Thanks Kathi, Lou & Dave, and fellow addicts. Roy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
