Lisa: thanks for all the great photos! Hope Tom gets to come home soon! Glad you got to meet RevNeal and Chris!
Just so everyone know this Christopher is not Chris from Texas but another friend of his that also has the same name of Christopher. This Chris lives in Southern California and Greg flew to California a day in advance and his friend brought him to California.
Bill glad you enjoyed the photos. It was great getting to meet Greg, he was just as I expected him to be:) I just wish I could of met up with Vic, he had left before he knew my plans had changed that I could make it to SD. I just wish I could of boarded with them. It is really hard to see all these happy people with their luggage getting ready to board the ship and here we were not being the ones boarding the ship.:( I really should not complain in less than 5 weeks I will be on the Westerdam:o I guess you could say that is whne my ship will come in.:p

I really enjoyed the pictures! Used to live in SD, and brother is in Escondido. I think he saw the Osterdam a few weeks ago in his travels because he called me and asked what ship was in port! He thought it was a beautiful ship. I'm forwarding your link to him with a little hint about a Mexician Riviera cruise next year!

Great pictures Lisa. Thanks for posting them.
Noticed that HAL wasn't able to use the regular pier.

Dave, NO :eek: :eek: , To be honest San Diego is a lovely city but since my Ryndam cruise November 13th that was my 4th time there. I am getting a bit tired of going to SD. I am hoping I won't be back till October 8th when we actually board the Oosterdam. At this point I just want Tom back home, yeah so in a few more weeks we can fly to the East Coast to Go cruising. I am definitely feeling like a frequent flyer. Our poor animals are getting really confused.

Great pictures. We have sailed from SD many times. Brought back lots of memories. SD looked like it was a busy place that day. Particularly liked the tall ship sailing by. Thanks for sharing.

Lisa, you have outdone yourself! What amazing pictures! And what a zoom you have! They are amazing and such fun.
When Greg comes back we have to be sure he gets to see these pictures. That will be such fun for him.
And we all have to be very careful now when we're on any HAL ship's balcony because the "sleuth" herself may have her trusty zoom lens with her!:D
Thanks, Lisa, I really enjoyed every shot.

You obviously have more willpower than most, if I would've been so close to a ship that was leaving I think I would stowed away in a suitcase.
It's great you were able to spot RevNeal from off the ship. He'll surely be surprised when he sees pictures of himself that he didn't even know were taken.
Maybe it was a good thing that the ship left late, you got some wonderful pictures of her all lit up.

Thanks for the pictures and it was good to see Rev. Greg Neal. I hope he enjoys the cruise. I wonder why the ship was soooooooooooo late in leaving.

Great shots, Lisa! Are you sure you don't do undercover sleuthing on the side? ;) Glad you got to meet Greg. I hope to meet him some day. He seems like a great guy. We're just going to have to find out a way to get all the HAL board folks on the same cruise one of these days.

seabourndt, look at this link to this picturehttp://community.webshots.com/photo/268142755/268157315XLQgNB
click on "Normal Size" under View Slide Show. Cabin 4180 would be the bottom Aft cabin on the left side.
The link above did not want to high light so you may need to copy and paste or just go back to the above link and it is the 15th picture.

Lisa -
Thanks for the great pictures! It made me feel warm and fuzzy all over. It was nice to see my penthouse again. These pictures will have to hold me over til I cruise again in March of '06. Thank you!

When you have a spare moment - wander on over to the folks in S4185 (the starboard corner suite) and tell them to keep it clean for me in September, willya?
