Rare rafinmd Posted October 23, 2013 #1 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Join us today for the MS Veendam's 5PM (Subject to change) sailaway from Port Everglades. With luck, there should be lots of tooting tonight. It's nice that the Veendam has Port Everglades all to itself today. Here's Lou and Dave's complete and nicely spaced sailaway schedule for today. All times are equivalent to New York time: PA | ISLAND PRINCESS | 12:30 PE | VEENDAM | 17:00 PC | CARNIVAL PRIDE | 18:00 Roy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aliaschief Posted October 23, 2013 #7 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Good morning from Newport RI. Just arrived and tender operations soon to begin. A great cruise! Sommeliers dinner last night. Sixty attended with 120 bottles of great wines poured. Jean Francois is a great Master certified sommelier. This is a lot more fun than sail-aways!:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solocanadian Posted October 23, 2013 #8 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Will try to remember to be here between loads of laundry - wish I was on a HAL ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
startwin Posted October 23, 2013 #9 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Unfortunately I can't be here - I'm hosting a symposium on homeless seniors, which kind of makes my cruise yearnings seem trivial (but still major to me:o). Have fun, hope to join you at the next one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a lot more fun than sail-aways!:D Chief, if you check this thread again, we will be watching for you in Port Canaveral. Knowing that you'll leave earlier than the Veendam, we hope your Captain will be doing some tooting. Will you be home in time October 27 to start the sailaway thread, or should I cover that one. When you get to FTL, look for inlady1 on the Eurodam. Roy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of note I have been told twice that on the new Pinnacle ship the Tamarind will be above Lido Dining room toward aft. Getting on hop on. Take care.

OVgirl Posted October 23, 2013 #14 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Good morning from Newport RI. Just arrived and tender operations soon to begin. A great cruise! Sommeliers dinner last night. Sixty attended with 120 bottles of great wines poured. Jean Francois is a great Master certified sommelier. This is a lot more fun than sail-aways!:D We also enjoyed talking with Jean Francois on our last cruise. If you see him again, can you say 'Hi' from Annemarie and Chris (the empty wine bottle couple).He might remember us.:o Enjoy the rest of your time on a great ship.

Rare Vict0riann Posted October 23, 2013 #15 Share Posted October 23, 2013 I'm not sure I'll be here, but will try. I usually get back from my stamp club at 2, and have to take the dog to the vet at 2:45. Tight turn-around. Want to hear some toots, though! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Vict0riann Posted October 23, 2013 #16 Share Posted October 23, 2013 I was just about to ask where Veendam was hiding, but Lou and Dave read my mind and panned camera 2 around, and now she is there. That's where we were docked in Eurodam in April. Lookin' good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare rafinmd Posted October 23, 2013 Author #17 Share Posted October 23, 2013 I was a bit surprised looking at the map on the bottom of Lou and Dave's page to see what looked like a second cruise ship in port. It is actually the Fiesta mail, a Bahamas ferry that makes weekly runs to Ft. Lauderdale, but carries only cargo on that run. According to the port schedule it leaves at 15:00.

Rare Scrapnana Posted October 23, 2013 #18 Share Posted October 23, 2013 I'm not used to seeing so many docked cargo ships in Port Everglades - I guess I usually only watch on cruise ship days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare rafinmd Posted October 23, 2013 Author #19 Share Posted October 23, 2013 In the current view (attached), is that the Veendam's funnel sticking up behind what looks like a parking garage? Scrapnana, I think somebody is getting a huge shipment of yachts today. I think it may also be that on cruise ship days the cargo ships get moved further back from the harbor entrance.

PathfinderEss Posted October 23, 2013 #20 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Thanks Rafinmd for the reminder, will be back at 5 to see sail away. Hope there's lots of tooting.:D:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
