Giving myself a Pat on the Back because I just noticed that I now have joined a New CC Club:) Do not know when I did this, as I seldom look at post counts, but am now over 10,000 posts:)

 

Joanie

 

congrats Joanie:D

[PathfinderEss]

Independence has 3 nice toots.......:)

[PathfinderEss]

.........and last we have the Pacific Princess moving, oops backing up.

[SMSACE6]

Im still here...IOS, not bad toots. Dinner is on the back burner, so this time got to go for real! till next sailaway.:)

[Boytjie]

Another ship starting a world cruise from Port Everglades.

 

Bon Voyage, Pacific Pr'ncess.

[PathfinderEss]

Wow, she looks small and expensive...........she does not look like a Princess ship.

[rkacruiser]

Another beautiful sunset as the Pacific Princess backs into the turning basin!

[kazu]

Love the toots from the Westerdam. Best "dam" sailaway. No one compares....

Oh...someday... I have to sail on her. To be there and hear that in person...totally awesome.

Not too bad listening from home either. :D

Thank you, Westie... way to go.

 

just don't get on with the wrong captain - I was so looking forward and everyone on our sail a way deck was disappointed - three toots:eek:

 

but it's still a great ship:D

Really I didn't know that is the ship they do their world cruise on.

[rkacruiser]

Wow, she looks small and expensive...........she does not look like a Princess ship.

 

She was built for Renaisannce Cruise Lines and when they went bankrupt, Princess bought three and Royal Caribbean for their Azamara brand bought 2, maybe 3. I have friends who traveled on one of them when they were with Renaisannce and, while I know there are those who disagree--this was their opinion--could not wait to get off. Did not like them at all because of the way the public areas were laid out. They said that the dining room ceiling was too low and the noise during dinner prevented easy conversations. I don't think Princess made many, if any, modifications to these vessels when they were bought.

[SMSACE6]

:)HaHa, I snuck back in for the last one! You can tell Im hooked on these sailaways!:D

 

So Pacific Princess, smaller ship and last one out today, but not to be outdone, and some very nice toots all the same! That is one nice looking ship:)

 

Ok this time I really am signing off for the day. Till next time:)

[PathfinderEss]

Pacific Princess 8 nice toots..............and that ends the sail away for Sunday.

Thanks Westerdam for a awesome sail away. Joanie for being able to count all those 110 toots.

Thanks Lou and David for a trouble free and wonderful sail away today.

Thanks CC for getting everything squared away.

My computer for not freezing up.

One of the ships, I think Sea Princess is also doing a world cruise in 2013.

 

Nice toots by Pacific Princess.

Thanks rkacruiser great information, I knew it didn't look like a Princess ship.

So upset that i missed westies sailaway today :( I was with family until tonight.

 

:( Booo! Glad she didn't disappoint! Was this his last sailaway for the season on the westie? (i've not read the thread yet)

[luvcruisn']

Great sailaway. Today the sound on my computer was working and I heard the Westerdam's toots. Thanks, Melodie, for starting the thread.

-congrats---its going to take me a long time to catch up:eek:

[maxie99]

Aha! Makes more sense! Here comes NA....memories of Dec 30 for me. IT was too cool to be outside for the sailaway so we sipped champagne in the crows nest!

 

Rob

-;) its wasn't that cold, from another canuck, and you being from frozen ottawa, we're on the westerdam that left before ya-:)-

[rafinmd]

Congrats, Joanie. Being on satellite internet I missed the sailaway, but it sounds like Capt. Henk is still on board. Correct?

Roy

 

Yes he is Roy, and I just this morning received an email from a staff member who is on vacation himself, that Captain Henk will leave the ship after this cruise and will go to his next ship (Prinsendam??) after his own vacation.

Depends on your point of view. If Captains rotate every 3 months there's a good chance Captain Henk could be on the Prinsendam November 22. I know and would prefer Captain Roberts but if it's Captain Henk I'll take it.

Captain Henk was on the Maasdam in 6/11 when I sailed to New England/ Canada.I have a picture taken with him when we got our medallions.
