Thanks for the heads up!!!

We will be watching!

I so want to do that 67 day South American cruise. Why can't those Publisher Clearinghouse people drive their van to my house????;)

Thanks for the reminder, Peter.

Thank you for the reminder.

LOL Kathi.

Thanks Peter - a daylight sailing for the Prinsendam sounds wonderful :)

So, I could not sleep. What is an addict to do? Indulge, of course! I watched a sail-in for a change.

Now I will try to go to sleep - at least it is not light out yet!

Thank you for the reminder.

I won't be here to see her sail away at 8 PM.

Great picks..

Great pictures Scrapnana.

Thanks for the reminder, Peter.

Kathi, we're both booked on World Cruises for 2018. I'm hoping the Elegant Explorer has at least 1 more year beyond that and the 2019 Grand South America is on my bucket list. I'd love to see you on it as well.

I have a meeting from 7:30 to 9 tonight. I hope sailaway is delayed until 9:30 or so. I've seen it happen often on these epic voyages.

Roy

Very nice pics Kathi :)

Darn - I misread Peter's opening post (needed more coffee I guess ;) ).

P'dam is sailing at 8 so it will be dark. Well, if she is on time, I will still be here.

I honestly cannot express how much I wish i was on the Grand South America cruise. This cruise on the Prinsendam is at the very top of the bucket list.

I'm heading over to the Prinsendam at 10:45. This cruise is a dream come true for me.

Have a wonderful cruise (I don't see how this one can miss).

You are going to love it. Did it a few years ago and when I get my home repairs done, I hope I have enough in the bank to do it again. Let us hear about it.

Thanks for the reminder, Peter. Those look like some amazing itineraries.

Thanks for the reminder, Peter.

I so wanted to do this cruise especially since I have a dear friend and fellow cruiser who is on for the entire voyage 3 Jan- 6 May. But my cruises have already put me in debt and the Prinsendam is way to expensive.

Have a fabulous time Elsie :)

Love this ship and love the itinerary.

It should be an amazing experience :)

Don't you hate the way home repairs get in the way of the fun stuff?:D

Sounds like a plan, Roy!

Hopefully, they are sitting outside my house, waiting for me to arrive home. ;)

We are sitting here in Half Moon with the Zuiderdam [both returning to FLL tomorrow].

Uncertain leaving times, have kept me from the sailaways - eating up too many minutes, I will be with you all tomorrow.

Enjoy the show - addicts. :D

We have the baby ships in today. The two together hold about as many people as the Zaandam (and she is nowhere close to big).

I would love to go on that cruise some day. I'll try to be here, but it's a tough time.

Thanks for the reminder. I have voluntary work today, but should be finished for 8pm sailaway(2pm here). Lucky enough to see Ovation of the Seas on Otago harbour last evening leaving after her first visit to Port Chalmers.(Dunedin)
