A city near Amsterdam.  I have visited Volendam several times and always buy some Dutch Christmas tree ornaments.

 

Bang! North-east of Amsterdam on the IJselmeer where you can get your pic taken in traditional costume

Pilot Boat No. 7 leading her out

That's the snazzy new Lithuanian pilot boat. 

[Krazy Kruizers]

That is it for me today.

And, there used to be a food cart near the water where you could get the best shrimp and lobster tail sandwiches.  The shrimp were huge!   I'm planning to go back next summer.

Picture perfect day for a sail-away.

Next time I see her, I will be getting ready to board her in San Diego in two weeks.

Brian; do you have your Nebraska flag out? 

No sir. All is sad in Nebraska football fan world. It's their worst start ever. I try not to talk about it much because Michelle gets angry.

That's it for today. NA on 21st.

Off topic- Snowing in Denali - puppies are loving it.

I know that feeling with my team here in L.A. and it's not the University of Spoiled Children

[Scrapnana]

See you all Sunday.😀

Good toot!  Bon voyage, Volendam

 

A question for the Sailaway Gang.  We will be on the premier voyage of Nieuw Statendam and we get in to FLL on December 18, but don't have to disembark until the 19th.  Our itinerary doesn't say what time we arrive, does anyone have any idea what time ships arrive if they come in the day before disembarkation?

 

Also, will you be watching?  I would try to be somewhere good to wave if so!  Maybe even request a wave!!

They are getting so big but are still adorable.

[ski ww]

Got back too late to watch the sail away.

[Happily@Sea]

Volendam almost out of sight.

 

I may miss Sunday - depends on when NA actually leaves.

CruiseTimeTables.com has you arriving at 2359 on the 18th.

So I guess if we are 1 minute late, we'll arrive on the 19th!  Oh well, I'll be sound asleep by then!  No request-a-wave for me.

Father,

On the Fort Lauderdale webcam look at the upper right and you will see an area labeled "Watch SW Cam" - this is the link.  (If you go over in a straight line to the left there is an area labeled "Watch SE Cam".

 

This is on the Fort Lauderdale webcam and not the Port Everglades cam.

Look just under the temperature in the photo

Cruise ships typically start lining up at the PE sea buoy, east of the entrance, as early as 0430 and are taken in by pilot in 30 min, increments. It would depend on NSDM's itinerary and planned arrival
