MS Noordam Sail-Away-Jan. 6, 2014

[erewhon]

Thank you for the information.

 

I was typing my question while you were posting.

 

It is bad up here in the north.

 

Please take care when you go out in such bad weather.

Stay safe.

We are planning on being deck 10 ? As close to the giant Noordam sign as we can get .

We'll be waving - but you'll probably be sailing after dark now. Have a great cruise!

Just checked the Key West Cam...the ship is "up close and personal" to the cam!

A 19:00 departure just announced.

[erewhon]

Voice from Noordam bridge now stating departure time 1900 hours.

Checking in...late...Costco was a zoo....glad I didn't miss Noordam!

Ryndam on the move Key West.

[Vict0riann]

Ryndam on the move Key West.

 

I thought she was, too, but she seems to have stopped....

 

OK, now she's definitely moving, before she must have been shoving off the dock, and I just thought she wasn't moving because the background was staying the same.

Darn! I'm going to miss the best part of my last (online) sailaway for the season! Going out to dinner at 6:30 after choosing my seat on the plane. I'll hang around in case she get's off earlier.

 

Wishing you safe travels, and a wonderful world cruise.

 

When you are in NZ do not take food/fruit off the ship, dogs may be on duty checking passengers.

Only 4 more days until your World Cruise.

Just in case I don't see you around here -- Bon Voyage!!

Just dropped DW off at the airport and made it back in time... too bad people are having travel issues getting to the ship....

[Krazy Kruizers]

Overheard on the cam: Noordam said they may be leaving as late as 19.00. Wow!

Thanks for the update.

One more time. Safe and memorable travels, smooth seas, weight loss not gain and Bon Voyage!:)

A final Bon Voyage to Scrapnana. I'll be in my Fire Department meeting when Noordam leaves (unless it's delayed again). I thought Ryndam was to leave at 1700. Everybody must have been onboard early.

Yes, Scrapnana.... have a wonderously terrific time on your World Cruise. Sure hope to do one of those some day! :)

Watching Ryndam sailing from Key West.

Roy, How does a fireman get so many days off to go cruising?

Bon Voyage Scrapnana...enjoy every minute!

Actually, I'm a volunteer retired from operations, and serve as the treasurer. Our Administrative assistant handles the routine things when I'm away. My next cruise will be a challenge as I'll be on the Amsterdam all of April and must submit some state and federal reports for the first quarter by April 15. I've been working with the administrator on doing the legwork and she'll either email them to me for signature (love that scan-snap scanner) or have the President sign in my absence. I do do some online stuff from the ship when necessary.

Many thanks for all of the well wishes. It still has not sunk in that it is really time to go on this amazing cruise (even after living with open suitcases all over the place for the last week)!

[Krazy Kruizers]

Since Noordam will be leaving late -- so long.

[erewhon]

A 5 kg Box of Cherries picked yesterday delivered just now, will have my attention for a while:D

[startwin]

I have to leave too. Scrapnana, just in case I don't see you online again - have a wonderful voyage! And don't forget if you run across someone called Arthur from B.C. - that's our buddy!

[PathfinderEss]

Port Schedule is now at the 19:00 departure time for the Noordam, as other have stated.
