Veendam arriving, she gave 5 toots on the way in, first time I ever heard tooting on arrival wonder what the people in the apartments think.

[Krazy Kruizers]

I have a feeling that a couple of people in the condo's will complain about the morning toots.

Koningsdam has arrived in Ft Lauderdale.

[Belgian fry]

I see Koningsdam!

[Krazy Kruizers]

Koningsdam arrived quietly.

The five short blasts you heard is the “danger signal”, sounded to warn another vessel that “I have no idea of what your intentions are”.  This morning, sounded by Veendam because this idiot was in the middle of the fairway, crossing our bow, when he decided to pass close aboard.  Sorry for the blurry second photo, but you get the idea of how close he was.

Looks like HAL is the only show in town today.

Sitting on the balcony at the Embassy Suites watching the traffic on 17th street. Leaving for the Koningsdam at 11:00.  Even after all the HAL cruises, still excited. 1st time as 4 star. Finally
