ms Zuiderdam Sail-Away January 25, 2016

Just lost my cable for a few minutes. I use the same company for internet, phone, and cable TV. Even my TV had issues but all seems well now.

We also use the same company for Internet, Cable and Phone. Saves money by bundling.

Serenade going to lead the parade?

Looks like she is off the dock

Anyone else having trouble with sound? None here.

Time for a zoom, I do believe.

I have sound. Have you tried refreshing?

Yes, and I just saved $50/month by getting into a new bundle. Only downside is when the cable has issues, I can lose all three.

Sound OK here.

The parade has started with Serenade of the Seas.

Is it Zuiderdam passengers that forgot their passport....??

That's correct. Expensive mistake.

Roy

That's correct. Expensive mistake.

 

Roy

Are they being left behind?

Thank you for the zoom!

Yes, and I just saved $50/month by getting into a new bundle. Only downside is when the cable has issues, I can lose all three.

We lost all 3 after a windstorm in December, for 26 hours. That is the only problem with having the bundle.

Are they being left behind?

I'm pretty sure they are. If they're not it's an expensive mistake for HAL.

Roy

That is why I have check lists that I use clear up to the time we lock up the house and leave for the airport hotel.

I don't trust my memory for anything any more.

I heard three distant toots.

I'm pretty sure they are. If they're not it's an expensive mistake for HAL.

 

Roy

Why would it be an expensive mistake for HAL?

They forgot their passports and they will have to pay their own to get to a port where they can get on the ship.

Zuidy pushing away.

Are they being left behind?

The port agent made it sound like they would be left because they had some distance to travel. I bet travel insurance does not cover forgetfulness.:D

Zuiderdam is on the move.

We're moving.

Why would it be an expensive mistake for HAL?

They forgot their passports and they will have to pay their own to get to a port where they can get on the ship.

I believe he is saying that if HAL waits, it would be expensive for HAL

Backing out - any CCers on the Zuidy this voyage

I agree -- most insurance policies that I know of won't cover for people forgetting passports and missing the ship.

Taxmantoo (?) -- but he didn't say where they would be for sail away.

Even after I have checking before I get into the car, I check again on the way to the airport.
