I heard some good toots but then a computer hiccup.   And a toot from sea.

 

Thanks Leanne, Lou & Dave, and fellow addicts.

Well, the last regularly scheduled BHB in port is the Zaandam on Tuesday.  The next BHB visit to Port Everglades is the Zuidy on May 12.  I will give the Juneau port sailin/away a go....the dates and times aren't as convenient for most, and there's no waves....but they are the BHBs we love!

Of course I had the wrong day for Zaandam - Tuesday the 18th. At least I wasn't a day late. - just a day early. 🙃  🙄

I always wonder how close those little boats are; I know the camera compresses things, so they're not as close as they look.

No, they were close as we went out the channel.

Checking in just as the Apex is moving. No sound though.

none of the ships sounded the horn as there is a large concert on the beach near the inlet.

I can see it on the ptz.com beach cam (courtyard)   best for also seeing the ships leave.

she is such a pretty ship.  Nice and traditional and not a floating water park.  Do not get me wrong, I like some of those bigger ships like Oasis and NCL too, but to me this is still a nice looking ship.

My very first cruise on HAL was on Amsterdam in 2010 for 2 weeks out of Seattle.  I remember so many places in the back to stand and the several levels of stairs too.
