Thank you for the reminder.

I will try to be here tomorrow for the sail away.

I think the sailing has been rescheduled for 6:00EST due to cleaning that will be going on after the out break of Noro virus. Boarding won't start until 3:00 instead of the normal 11:30. This info is from a CC cruiser getting on board tomorrow. Zsandy25 got an email from HAL that said they would be boarding their cabin number at 4:00.

We will be going on this cruise on 2-19-16 and hope we don't have this problem.

I'll be here, waving at you Peter.

Peter, thanks for starting this as you prepare to sail. Have a great cruise!

I hope to be here watching my ship sail on my computer (can't wait for March 11th) and the big snowstorm out my windows...

:D

Made it in time.

Geeeez, 24 hrs. early.

Thank you for the reminder Peter.

Sailing is still scheduled for 6 PM.

We shall see what happens.

Hope to be here for the later sailing at 6PM. Hope the crew can eradicate the noro.

Sailing is still scheduled for 6 PM.

We shall see what happens.

We are having a blizzard today, so if I'm not shoveling, I plan to be here.

I hope all of the B2B passengers enjoy their excursions while the deep cleaning happens.

:D

I was surprised to get up this morning to see Oosterdam is still on the schedule for 4 pm when we know that is probably impossible. I would have thought the PEV public traffic board would have gotten the message.

They finally have her sailing at 6 pm which is what we expected.

Just heard conversation between Oesterdam and the Princess ship asking each other when departing. O at 18:00 and Princess at 16:00.

Checking in for 1800 departure(12 noon Tues here). A lot of horns from someone.

Checking in for Monday sailaway.

Is the Noro eliminated now?

Is the Noro eliminated now?

I'm sure everyone getting on today hopes so!:D

I hear the Love Boat.

Princess moving.

Three Love Boats with a few flat notes.

I'll be back for Oosterdam sail-away.

I'm just back and Oosterdam is still in port, so I haven't missed much I guess!:) A quiet day here, we went out for lunch - last fling before Lent kicks in. I'll be on the lookout for Oostie leaving and hope she is clear of the Noro.

Dang!!

I missed the "Love Boat" toots.

Oosterdam now listed 1815.

Medical emergency on Oosterdam,ambulance required.
