Thanks for the response! I assume by your card you mean your "seapass" card or whatever it is they call them on HAL?

Here are a few more pics, that I may not have posted, as I am uploading to my Cruise Album. . .

 

Some pics are repeats. . .

Radio, do you have a single arm tripod for your camera, or are your arms 6' long? I'm trying to figure out how you took the picture of your balcony without an extension.

 

Smooth Sailing! :) :) :)

This may have been asked and answered but I am still reading this thread. I am thoroughly enjoying your pictures and comments. We have been on the Westerdam the last 2 New Years sailings. I am so impressed with your pictures. Can you tell me which camera you are using? It looks like you are a photographer and reporter. I will try to keep track of your escapades in the future. Take care.

Radio, is your office in Virginia? We live near Manassas and keep looking for a good person to help us with cruising if you know what I mean.

 

I just finished your thread. I had some interuptions. I loved Westerdam also. I have only been on 3 cruises and 2 of them were on her. I am trying to save money now so I can go on another cruise. My DH actually likes cruising. He is a workaholic but I can actually get him to relax. Too bad it takes him almost the full week to get relaxed. Maybe a B2B or 14 day cruise next if money allows.

How the he** did you take this? :confused: It looks as though you found a way to attach yourself to the top corner of the baclony!! :eek: Or maybe there's a ledge and you set your camera on it and figured out how to push the button to take the picture. I just can't figure it out and especialy how you did it without getting any of your body parts in there!!

I see a hairy forarm so I am guessing he held it high (maybe stepping on a chair) and took a few till he got what he wanted.

 

Is that what you do Radio?

Yes Linda. . That is exactly what I do. . . I might of snapped 8 pics of this image, until I got the one I wanted. (sometimes I never get the right one. . .)

 

 

Most of the pics that get posted are the same way. I took over 1100 pics on this trip, but only 150-200 will make it to my album.

 

I am alot of things, but I am not a photographer ! I just love to take pics on a cruise !

Don't sell yourself short, Radio...you're a great photographer...with a great camera, too. ;)

[rochelle_s]

Radio,

 

If you are not a photographer I don't know who is? You take absolutely fabulous photos. You should consider becoming a travel reporter/critic. You would be perfect for the job!!

 

I have loved reading your "live from thread" ...even now that it is no longer "live".

 

Thanks for putting it out there for the rest of us to enjoy.

Radio... I tried to find photos for the Century and could not?? We are sailing on the Century in July. We are doing Northern Europe and can't wait! I would love to see your photos. I have really enjoyed this thread as we are going on the Westerdam in December. Thanks so much. >SNIP< quote]

Radio, or anyone else..

 

I have a question about HMC

 

I got the HAL dvd yesterday and watched it *they said 2 to 5 days, and it came in 2 days, I was impressed*

 

I saw what looked to be a sorta water park on the Island w/ a slide... Dad always loves the slides and stuff. I was wondering where it is on the Island, and if it's only for the kiddies before I mention it to him.

 

One more thing... PG... I hear it's open for lunch on sea days or what not... can someone confirm this? I would rather do lunch there if it's possible.

 

2 weeks till we leave for the FLorida!

 

:)
