Are you going to be waving to us? If so, let us know where.

Thanks for the heads-up Peter... Hope to be there. Forecast for tomorrow is pretty good. A little cool but no rain unless POA breaks into a happy dance.

Thanks for the reminder, should be here.

What happened to the warm weather in Fort Lauderdale? This is our first day below 70 degrees when we left on the 21st - very late.

At least turnaround day should be much smoother. I will Not be on deck this afternoon, too cold.

Hope to be here. Just noticed that Retired Mustang, who many of us know ,is on the 21 day cruise and is blogging his voyage. He notes that he just retired from his federal service so I am sure this cruise will be fantastic for him and wife.

Checking in. I guess the Floridians have pulled out the woolly jumpers with the cold temperatures.:D

"Oosterdam set for 1545"

Checking in.

Checking in with lunch, as usual, and today's repast is a Cornish pasty. Yum.:D

Checking In

Passengers coming back from the hospital. :eek:

I heard that.

Wonder what happened?

They're not a hearty bunch. :D As far as I'm concerned, it's still shorts weather.

It was 52 degrees Fahrenheit this morning ("Back Bacon" or eleven-ish in Celsius.) The TV weather referred to this - I kid you not - as "brutal cold.")

Checking in.

Sounds like Oosterdam gave her toot that she is ready to leave.

I'm here, too.:)

It's just about 50 degrees here, too - of course a bit later in the day!;)

We need a ZOOM in.

Need a close up or is it me?

We need a ZOOM in.

Great minds think alike.

While we're waiting, head over to Google.
