Ugh! Internet cut out and it took about five minutes for modem to reboot. Doesn’t look like I missed anything, however.

Hi all!

Well a beautiful day here in San Diego!

We’re sitting on the pier at our restaurant with much wine and appitizers!

The ships to us are such wonders and seeing all the happy faces with their luggage walking down the water front was great! Kicking back for the Sailaway!!! We even have out of towners for Christmas wanting to stay with us for Sailaway!

To all I wish we had a better webcam! It really sucks!

Still a couple of lines in aft connected.

[Happily@Sea]

Here goes last line.

[Scrapnana]

Dropping lines

[Krazy Kruizers]

I think I heard them say that they are dropping the lines on the Holland America ship.

[rafinmd]

Nice departure toot.

Wishing all the Nieuw Amsterdam passengers a great cruise.

Toots!

[Krazy Kruizers]

Nice Toots from Nieuw Amsterdam

[erewhon]

3 good long toots.

[Krazy Kruizers]

That is it for me today.

[rafinmd]

3 nice toots.Bon Voyage Carol and Carole, and thanks Kathi, Lou, and Dave.

 

I'll probably miss Friday due to Baltimore Symphony but will be watching here for a most unusual call by the Crystal Serenity ARRIVING at 1530 and leaving about 2100. If I get a chance to have a peek at the HAL ships as well tomorrow I'll try for that. Next time Serenity visits FTL I'll be leaving with her.

I noticed that weird schedule. I guess it takes longer to get from Charleston to FLL than I would have thought.

Sea-distances.org says 411 nautical miles, 21 hours at 20 knots.
