Blazerboy Posted December 3, 2008 #802 Share Posted December 3, 2008 Darn, must have been too focused on traffic this morning on the bridge...will have to take a look. Thanks, Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tedson Posted December 12, 2008 #804 Share Posted December 12, 2008 I think it was scheduled to depart today for Long Beach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjb415 Posted December 12, 2008 #805 Share Posted December 12, 2008 I think it was scheduled to depart today for Long Beach. I'm actually sad about that. The Carnival Paradise has been so nice to look at from the lobby of my building & on walks down the hill. I've enjoyed seeing it lighted at night, it makes the bay seem that much more active, even though not full of passengers. Guess today was my last chance to see a big ship in drydock there until the next one arrives. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjb415 Posted March 1, 2009 #806 Share Posted March 1, 2009 It appears that the Carnival Elation arrived in San Francisco yesterday. I noticed it today as I was entering 101 from the Central Freeway on my way south. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfgoguy Posted March 2, 2009 #807 Share Posted March 2, 2009 If so, want to meet a week or two before departure over a beer or cocktail? The new Toad Hall has opened in the Castro (across from Badlands in the former Pendulum space on 18th Street). That might be a good venue to meet on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjb415 Posted March 15, 2009 #808 Share Posted March 15, 2009 (edited) Now that the Carnival Elation has left drydock the Carnival Spirit has arrived and will be in San Francisco drydock until March 26, 2009.

aaerobear Posted July 5, 2009 Author #809 Share Posted July 5, 2009 Anyone cruising this summer from our newly remodeled Pier 35? Yes folks, they washed the windows and it only cost the port of San Francisco $300,000 for the cleaning.( 50 dollars for the job and the rest for sending out proposals and the bidding process and then awarding the final contract to a firm in Dothan Alabama that had to fly in 24 undocumented workers to perform the work). Oh yes, they also put paper numbers on all the posts throughout the terminal (that had to set them back a few bucks). Those folks at the Port Authority of San Francisco really know how to treat cruise passengers don't they? Try working in that barn.:eek: Seriously though, I hope everyone has a great summer and does some cruising from wherever your hearts desire.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkBearSF Posted July 6, 2009 #810 Share Posted July 6, 2009 We leave on Sunday 12 July for 10 days in the Baltics on the Eurodam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjb415 Posted July 6, 2009 #811 Share Posted July 6, 2009 Hey MarkBearSF, Lucky you !!! The Baltics is on my wish list of cruises for the future. If you haven't sailed the Eurodam, I can tell you that you will have a fantastic time. Although the food in the Tamarind was just okay by San Francisco standards, the service and atmosphere were perfect. As one who is happy eating in the Lido, I ate in Tamarind twice in one week. I hope you have a fantasic cruise !! :) Please report back to let us know how things went for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blazerboy Posted February 1, 2010 #821 Share Posted February 1, 2010 Hey, Ted. We were there, too. A crew member who was on the QE2 with us for our honeymoon is now on QV, and we met her at the ship...alas, no VIP tour, but we did spend a fun day together, showing her S.F. It was fun to see the ship from all the places we took her... Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeAndMichael Posted March 5, 2010 #823 Share Posted March 5, 2010 Here's a long shot. Anybody from SF (besides us) going on the 35-day HAL Maasdam cruise, R/T Boston to N. Europe leaving 7/17/10?? If not, do you know anyone from elsewhere, gay or str8, who's going? Sadly, I predict everybody onboard will be over 60... just like us. Sigh.

JoeAndMichael Your trip sounds fantastic, I wish that I was aboard !! :) Is this the annual Holland America sailing that actually touches the Arctic Circle? I remember an officer on the Oosterdam telling us about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
