ms Nieuw Amsterdam Port Everglades sailaway, January 6, 2018

I don't want to step on Peter's toes but I was just thinking that because today's Nieuw Amsterdam sailing is a charter it may not be on his list. I don't have a map but cruisetimetables.com indicates that the "Sandy Beaches" cruise is going to St. Johns, Antigua and St. Maarten. She's at pier 26.

Also in port Harmony of the Seas, Freedom of the Seas, Carnival Conquest, and Silver Wind. cruisetimetables lists sailaway as 1700 while the port schedule shows 1600. If 1600 I should be here but if 1700 I'll be out on deck for my own sailaway. No HAL ships in Key West today; I can tell that by looking out my window.

Oh my heavens, how nice of you while you are cruising!

Nice job Roy! :cool:

Thank you Roy

You are right -- since it is a chart, Peter may not have it on his list.

You are so nice to set this up while cruising.

I'll be there, this is my ship! (God help me)

Thanks for the link!

In case anyone's curious - the Sandy Beaches cruise is musician Delbert McClinton & friends. This is their 24th cruise. Bet they will be having a great time and some great music!!!

Now I know why I didn't see it posted this morning. I did watch her sail in.

I'm in lauderdale but not going to see the ships sail. Unfortunately

Double good news for me. The port schedule now has NA "Confirmed" for 4PM so I hope cruisetimetables was wrong about 1700. Also, while our documents said we leave Key West at 1700, the sign at the gangway said "All Aboard 17:00" so I should have a pretty good chance of seeing her leave.

Let's see if she goes on time. They were running on time for disembarking.

Looks like a small, quiet group today.

NA now showing 1700 departure.

Carnival dropping lines.

I was afraid of that. If we get away quickly I'll miss Nieuw Amsterdam.

Can you tell this from the camera? If so, how?

Wow, lot of cumulus maximus in FLL today :eek:

No, from pilot talking on radio.:)

Looks like Carnival is moving.
