Pat is feeling a bit better, but I think this is going to take some time before he is his old self. He went to the doctor yesterday and has been referred for physiotherapy. @cat shepard, forest floor sounds good, too. Makes me think of Cathedral Grove here on the island, on the way to Tofino, or the wonderful redwoods of California. California is having a bad time right now - my cousin in Woodside is under evacuation notice, and another cousin in Walnut Hill is getting papers, etc., in order in case they have to go, too. Here we have grab-and-go bags ready always, in case of earthquake, but the thought of fire nearby makes me quake! @Copper10-8, interesting to see a modern bridge - here's what I think it should look like! (Queen Mary) From that.............to this 😉 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gsel Posted August 25, 2020 #57 Share Posted August 25, 2020 Time for me to thank Rich and all who post every day. Have been lurking since the beginning, but just now have the time to post. We have been cruising since 1973 but will not return. DH is now in the late stages of Alzheimer's and it would be dangerous for us to travel virus or no virus. He loved it, and we did manage two last year, Oosterdam and Volendam, but it was obvious he could no longer cope. Thanks to all of you, the pictures keep the memories alive for both of us daily! Happy cruising and stay safe! Barbara 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way I do it is to drag the picture on to my desktop and when this screen comes up I drag the picture in to where it says "Drag files here to attach". When the picture appears below that, I click on the + symbol to include it in the post. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lazey1 Posted August 25, 2020 #69 Share Posted August 25, 2020 3 hours ago, Copper10-8 said: Some pics of Volendam's bridge with the chief officer (the term used prior to the current staff captain title) going over the elec charts in some wild waters off beautiful New Zealand while heading from Picton (where I had the pleasure of meeting up with poster Erewhon and the Mrs. - Kia ora) to Tauranga. The panel in the foreground is the starboard bridge wing panel from where the ship can be "parked" alongside. Carefully looked after plants can usually be found on the bridge, as well as mascots 😉 Every morning at 10:30, the bridge team (all nautical dept officers) gets together on the bridge for "coffee time," usually followed by a "BRM" - Bridge Resources Management" meeting to discuss the particulars of the next port of call I have never been aboard the Volendam however I have booked her Thanksgiving crise to Hawaii for 2021. Thank you for the little preview. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
