ms Rotterdam in Port Everglades February 24, 2020

A departure toot !!!

Another side note regarding Silver Wind.  We are so use to seeing much larger ships dominate the Rotterdam, isn't it strange to see how small the Silver Wind is next to the Rotterdam?  Silver is less than 1/3 the tonnage and is 2 years older ('95 vs '97).

 

Ready for Rotterdam now.

She's on the move.

[Happily@Sea]

Moving out.

[Vict0riann]

I think Rottie is moving - we need a zoom, please!

 

 

Thank you!😀

Looking lovely.. so elegant and stately. 

Shes the only ship in the current fleet I haven’t sailed on.

I finally did - last year Jan/Feb - out of Tampa.

You ought to try to do so.  Her decor is superior, in my opinion, to Amsterdam.  A replica of the mural in the aft Lounge on Rotterdam V is at the front of Rotterdam's MDR.  She was built to be a Grand World Voyage ship and her decor shows that.

She is making the turn towards the channel.

They should have left her in Tampa this season IMHO.  The fares going thru the Panama Canal are low in comparison.

Wishing all the Rotterdam passengers a great cruise.

[Krazy Kruizers]

Lots of people out on the decks.

[Vict0riann]

Nice to see a closeup of the funnels!

 

And good toots!

3 longs toots from the Rotterdam.

[Krazy Kruizers]

See you all on Wednesday for the Veendam and the Zuiderdam.

[Happily@Sea]

Look at that blue water - behind her.

Well done Rotterdam.  Thanks Kathi, Lou & Dave, and fellow addicts, especially for being my eyes and ears while I can't get the webcam.
