Rare Scrapnana Posted January 15, 2016 #28 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Nice picture, Scrapnana! Are you finding it difficult to sleep because you are anticipating a cruise? I am, keep going through things in my mind. It's terrible being this way and it's still almost 3 months out!!! Looking forward to it and also doing some future cruise planning.:D Four passengers are not going to make some ship because plane diverted to Fort Myers. Why, oh why, do they fly in the day of. Take an extra vacation day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krazy Kruizers Posted January 15, 2016 #29 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Lifeboat drill postponed due to pouring rain. We have had to stand out in the pouring rain a couple of times. None of ours have ever been postponed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happily@Sea Posted January 15, 2016 #30 Share Posted January 15, 2016 How terrible is it to be running late and then be diverted to an airport across the state. Another reason to never leave it until the day of departure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boytjie Posted January 15, 2016 Author #32 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Coastal Broward and Coastal Miami Dade are under tornado watch until 5 pm. I can't believe that they have the tiny boat sailing school out in this. Training them in what to do in adverse weather? :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taxmantoo Posted January 15, 2016 #34 Share Posted January 15, 2016 The NEXT Zuiderdam sail away in 10 days is OURS ! Hopefully, the weather will be more cooperative. No risk of us ever missing the boat ... going to Fort Lauderdale 5 days early :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare POA1 Posted January 15, 2016 #35 Share Posted January 15, 2016 We have had to stand out in the pouring rain a couple of times. None of ours have ever been postponed. This is some serious Florida rain. I was loading groceries when the sky opened up. In less than 3 minutes, my shirt was soaked through, and my pants were mostly drenched. This is more like rainy season than mid January. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alcarondas Posted January 15, 2016 #36 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Modified lifeboat drill was a mess. Everyone had to go out to the boat stations, get their cards scanned, and go back inside. Human traffic on the boat deck was congested, to say the least. The Captain is now giving the safety speech on the loudspeaker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lizzie68 Posted January 15, 2016 #37 Share Posted January 15, 2016 To those onboard the Zuiderdam - happy sailaway and I sure hope the weather improves for you.:D We will be waving you off...

Krazy Kruizers Posted January 15, 2016 #43 Share Posted January 15, 2016 They kept Ruby (my dog) overnight for tests and observation. I am supposed to call Friday around 2 pm. So I do not know if I will make it or not. Keep us updated on Ruby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In less than 3 minutes, my shirt was soaked through, and my pants were mostly drenched. This is more like rainy season than mid January. We have been in Ft Lauderdale a couple of times when there was serious rain. Know all about it. We have it here as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lizzie68 Posted January 15, 2016 #45 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Hello, Lizzie.:) Hello back.:) My cousin in FL near the Everglades is very miserable about the weather today, and apparently there is a huge storm coming with even a chance of a tornado, which is very unseasonal. Hope the Zuiderdam finds smoother waters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
