Hope to be here for sailaway. Our local St Pete addict  said Tampa not likely to have fog tomorrow.

 

I'll be here to check it out.

[erewhon]

Hope to be there.

On the NS, look for a fairly large (I think) group from our Roll Call, on the "tail" above the aft Lido deck.  At least two of us will be in bright pink tops.  We will wave to you all.  

 

We are already enjoying a 51C difference in temperature from the frozen tundra back home.

Checking in Nieuw Statendam is about 9 miles out, she's third in line for sail in.

[Krazy Kruizers]

Don't know if I can stay and watch the ships sail in.  Too many chores to do.

[ski ww]

Don't know what the camera in Tampa is looking at but it's not the harbour & the Rotterdam is very close.

[ski ww]

Nieuw Statendam & N. Amsterdam are next in line.

[Krazy Kruizers]

Nieuw Statendam not too far away and Nieuw Amsterdam close behind.

[Krazy Kruizers]

That is a weird picture in Tampa.

Nieuw Statendam has arrived in Ft Lauderdale.

We are pulling in now. We have a sailed vessel here today. Very pretty with all her lights. I was on our balcony watching us pull in. Dh is grabbing us coffee in the Crows Nest.

It has been a fantastic cruise! I was so worried with some reports but goodness, I found our HAL to be be just as before with very few minor changes that had no impact on our overall cruise experience. I'll write up a detailed review once we get home.
