RSLeesburg Posted September 29, 2019 #1 Share Posted September 29, 2019 Yesterday we caught the ferry from Hingham to Boston and saw three ships in port. It was my first time seeing Anthem in person, so grabbed a quick pic with my phone. She is sandwiched between Sapphire Princess and Zaandam. I did not realize that Boston could service that many ships at one time... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAMESCC Posted September 29, 2019 #2 Share Posted September 29, 2019 We were on the Anthem cruise just before this one to Bermuda. Anthem is such a great ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reallyitsmema Posted September 29, 2019 #3 Share Posted September 29, 2019 There are three ships there a lot during the short fall season. They can handle two ships embarking and one port of call as there are two terminals. Yesterday, only Zaandam was embarking, other two were on ports of call. http://www.massport.com/flynn-cruiseport/cruise-directory/cruise-schedule/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njkruzer Posted September 29, 2019 #4 Share Posted September 29, 2019 The ships fit but not my favorite port as it can't handle disembarkation well. They can't get luggage out in a timely fashion. That being said the Anthem was there on a port call. Also don't try and get a cab there. Always a long line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RSLeesburg Posted September 29, 2019 Author #5 Share Posted September 29, 2019 lol... we flew up Thursday night and went to Long Wharf, Aquarium, and Faneuil Hall on Friday. It was empty. Yesterday it was packed and I heard someone commenting about the cruise ships in port. All I can say is that those folks on Anthem had a beautiful day in port - the weather has been outstanding this weekend! Heading back down to West Palm this afternoon, and hoping to get a glimpse of Serenade in port, as we board her in December. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reallyitsmema Posted September 29, 2019 #6 Share Posted September 29, 2019 You should be able to see Serenade as you take off. Absolutely a gorgeous weekend, love the fall in the Boston area. We board Serenade two weeks from today for Bermuda, hoping we have similar weather as we are having this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mets123 Posted September 30, 2019 #7 Share Posted September 30, 2019 Never had a problem getting a taxi in Boston. Was there two weeks ago with three ships. I just walked to the cab and got right in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare little britain Posted September 30, 2019 #8 Share Posted September 30, 2019 (edited) We are currently on Anthem. Had a fabulous day in Boston. Walked over 28,000 steps and the weather was fantastic! It’s about a 30 min walk into the centre.

Dina7 Posted September 30, 2019 #9 Share Posted September 30, 2019 Loved our port day in Boston on the Anthem last November. And if you can’t get a cab, don’t worry. We were easily able to get an Uber from the port into the city & back again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
