Looks like I will be on the Nieuw Amsterdam before you!!!  LOL….it is some sort of practice cruise.  I guess people who work under the Carnival umbrella put their name into a lottery.  I have a friend who works for Seaborn and her name got drawn and she invited me.  It is VERY short but it is free and puts me back on a ship.  It leaves Seattle at 4:00 July 18 and gets back at 9:00 July 20…guess it is just going to go out in the sound and turn around.

It's not the best angle, but it's the only webcam that shows Pier 91.   here's the webcam link: http://www.elliottbaymarina.co/live/

Congratulations! Please report back on her condition. Many of us were wondering if they did any public area maintenance during her February 2020 emergency dry dock. Doubtful, but still wondering. Have a great time!
