Oh well -- didn't know about this until a couple of minutes ago.

 

I see that the Oosterdam has already arrived.

[Krazy Kruizers]

See you all this afternoon.

[1964IceCreamLady]

I will be watching!  My parents on board.  So happy my dad will be able to go through the Canal.

[travelnap]

Kathi and fellow addicts, I will not be joining you today or tomorrow for the sailaway as we have our Family Easter get together on Palm Sunday as we are kind of scattered, so I will be traveling this weekend.  Enjoy the toots for me.

Sitting at our motel waiting for a taxi to drive us to Port Everglades and start the voyage aboard the Oosterdam. Our travel agent forced us to stay on the ship for 21 days. We are in cabin 4180 at the stern of the ship and should be out for sailaway as always. Looking forward to seeing the canal again as well as San Diego. With over 25 cruises now with Holland America we never get tired of the moments we spend on one of the many Damm ships. 

[Happily@Sea]

Our view blocker is back at Aruba - Freewinds is sitting in her usual spot - might not be much to see when Zuidy arrives in about 1/2  hour or so.

So sorry for you that you have been "forced" to stay on board for 21 days!  Haha.  

 

We'll be waving.

Was it a good show?  We had booked it in Vancouver, and then decided we'd rather be on the Prinsendam in March!  Maybe one day...

[Happily@Sea]

Zuidy just off-screen in Aruba.

 

[Vict0riann]

Anyone else not getting emails from CC?  I have about 8 threads marked for instant notification and I'm not getting anything, even from this thread, where I'm posting.

[Happily@Sea]

I'm getting plenty of notification emails.

Now coming in to the dock - we were there just a few weeks ago on Prinsendam and enjoyed the free trolley!

My little bell has the number of notifications on it, but no emails.  If this continues, I will post on the "Trouble" thread!

[Himself]

I doubt that I will be here as I will be finishing up with Confessions at that time.  I hope the Oosterdam has a safe journey as she begins the journey to Seattle to begin the Alaska season in a few weeks.

That's it for Zuidy be back later for FLL/PEV and Oosterdam.

[Krazy Kruizers]

I know that I will be cooking dinner when the Oosterdam leaves later this afternoon

Wishing all the Oosterdam passengers a great cruise.

[Cruizer Bill]

Thanks for the info.
