I plan to be here for the all-HAL sailaway.

Will try and be at sailaway.

Checking in, just watching the Veendam docking.

Thank you for the reminder.

And here comes the Koningsdam silently sliding into harbour.

Thanks for the reminder - hope to be watching.

Thanks, my sister and her husband will be waving a white towel from their balcony, they are on their honeymoon on the beautiful Koningsdam....................

Unusual for me, I have sailed all the ships in Port Everglades today. It's not usually even all the HAL ships. I hope to be here if the Veendam is on time.

Checking in.

Kdam 1630, Veendam 1700.

Checking in a smidgen early.

Looks like a few raindrops at FLL.

Checking In

At least it's warm but it doesn't look very nice out today. I guess it doesn't matter because you're on a cruise ship heading out to sea.

I see that the Koningsdam time has been changed to 4:30.

I may not be able to watch if they really run late.

Nor'Easter up north is affecting flights.

Checking in.

KK, I did send you some better weather recently.

Veendam reconfirming 5 pm.

Is someone moving?

Checking in!

Smooth Sailing! :) :) :)

Is someone moving?

K'dam 4:30 & Veendam 5 pm

Many great memories on these two ships. I went to Antarctica on the Veendam and the Arctic on the Koningsdam.

Kdam ready to go, so should be sharp 1630.

Is someone moving?

No, lines and gangways still attached. I guess if patience is a virtue, I am living in sin.

K'dam has dropped some of her/his bow lines - but no just looks like it - still all there.
