This is so exciting to watch.  We were on the Grand Africa leaving Ft. Lauderdale just 3 months ago on the Zaandam.

Nice toots from Volendam!

Nice horn tooting......

[Crazy For Cats]

I’m liking all the toots.

[dchip]

Great close ups!!!

[travelnap]

We have three toots from Volendam.  Now some short toots as well. Work that horn, she won't be back for awhile.

[Happily@Sea]

Lots of triple toots!!

Watch for Nancy and John Vista suite Port 6206 at sail away on the Volendam.   We are on for the entire 74 days.  I will be waving my purple Ravens flag.  We are arriving now.  Pilot boat woke us at 5:20 off our Dolphin deck cabin. 

 

I did not actually see you but thought i saw a flash of purple as the camera panned by quickly.

 

Nice, STRONG toots from the Volendam.

My husband always laughs when I wave back to the people on deck waving.....lol

Unfortunately we didn't get to see Nancy @ottahand7on her balcony with her Ravens flag.  Mostly top deck people, plus the added benefit of seeing the bridge waves!

Yes, the close ups were too quick and I didn’t see Nancy either. But I loved bridge waves. 
 

She looks golden:
