Even though it's a different itinerary, day, or time she's still making her usual swing around to face the exit. Roy

And FINALLY on screen. Roy

Almost to the basin but only 3.7 kt as she passes the Bliss. Roy

Sad news from Baltimore. RIP Brooks Robinson. Roy

Nieuw Amsterdam just showed up on land based AIS, passing Grand Island. Very delayed. Roy

Nieuw Amsterdam appears to be finally past Tracy Arm. Roy

There's the bow. Roy

Westie should be passing Thane. Roy

According to the satellite data NA is a little south of Tracy Arm. Roy

I believe Nieuw Amsterdam is actually doing the Seattle round trip as Koningsdan usually does for her last trip of the season. Did you get what you needed with @Scrapnana? Roy

Today's sunrise is from my 2017 cruise on MS Oosterdam. On September 26 we visited Victoria. Roy

https://morethangetaways.wordpress.com/ I've updated the "Itinerary" tab.

I have set up my threads for my upcoming cruises: Cunard: and for Crystal: Roy

Thank you Rich, Vanessa, Dixie, Ann, and Debbie. I certainly like all 3 of today's days although I am terrible at languages. I like the quote even without a source. I've been to Freeport at least twice but have no burning desire to go back. Two interesting days in our history. The lamb chops sound interesting. My alternative is Strawberry Bisque, Boston Lager Flat Iron Steak, and Pineapple Crisp as served on MS Oosterdam September 26, 2017: Roy

I am now very close to beginning a trip that has evolved in the last couple of months. I will board Cunard’s Queen Mary 2 Friday (September 29) in New York (Brooklyn) and sail northward to Quebec October 5-6. I then move a few hundred meters to the waiting Crystal Serenity and return to New York (Bayonne) disembarking October 13. These are both very familiar ships to me with a couple of twists. I have 103 nights on Queen Mary 2, all but 23 nights on Transatlantic crossings. Up to now, I have always sailed in Britannia Class and very much enjoyed it. I really never saw any reason to upgrade until Covid hit. I was due to sail Sydney (Australia) to New York, about 46 days, but as Covid hit I got kicked off the ship in Perth/Fremantle after only 10 days. I was given a huge credit which I needed to apply and can no longer do long cruises so this trip will be in Princess Grill. I have known there were some upgrades going to the grills (an extra lounge, extra deck space, and a different restaurant) but otherwise I felt much like any other passenger. On this voyage I will learn what other differences I was missing but did not realize. I have 170 nights on Crystal Serenity and positively love it but the twist here is that the Crystal I have loved went out of business and is now under new ownership so I will get a taste of how things have changed that matter to me. It will be a bit of a learning experience. I am establishing 2 threads for this trip. The one on the Crystal forum will cover the entire trip with the QM2 portion also serving as my journey to meet my ship. The one on the Cunard forum will only cover my travels to Quebec. My postings will generally be identical with the threads differing primarily by the comments of Crystal regulars on one and comments of Cunarders on the other. 2 nights at home before I head to New York.

I guess that's it today. Thanks Leanne, Lou & Dave, and fellow addicts. Roy

Wide sweep for Koningsdam. Will she show us her aft today? Roy

Just coming into view. Roy

Not by much at least. Roy

Now past Thane. Roy

Beeline for the berth. Roy

Sure is. Roy
