MS Noordam Sail-Away Nov 16

[Krazy Kruizers]

Didn't even see life boat drill.

[mamaofami]

Who are we listening to? Anyone know?

[erewhon]

Hi there! Well guess what - karma got me. The big computer froze and crashed, but luckily DH popped out to buy his lottery ticket, so I quickly took possession of the laptop:D

 

Hope it will be a very lucky lottery ticket.

[mamaofami]

They just said Noordam will sail at 16:45

[erewhon]

Noordam sailing at 1645.

[zelker]

She must be leaving a bit early. The itinerary said sailing at 5:00 but they just announced she'd be sailing at 16:25 ... which is NOW! :D

 

Correction: must have heard wrong if you guys think they said 16:45 which must be right since they haven't cast off the ropes yet. My bad.

I'll be watching you, Chief. Have a wonderful cruise.:)

Carol. received your check, Thanks so much. Will be giving it to family tomorrow.

Yahoo... white truck has shown up. Looking good for an almost on time departure.

[PathfinderEss]

Did he say 16:45 or 15:45??

[josie724]

Just hear that....Hi Carol

[josie724]

I heard 16:45

[PathfinderEss]

Well there is the white truck, won't be long now.:D

[erewhon]

That was a tiny cherry picker compared to what we had here on Monday to remove some trees.

 

Were the trees damaged during the big storm?

I must be one of the only ones who doesn't have volume on the Fort Lauderdale cam! I do on the Port Everglades, however.

[patwell]

Treat her kindly please....and leave some of those dessert buffet goodies for those of us to follow. We board in 3 weeks!! :D:D:D Can't wait altho it's going to be hard leaving my new little fur-kid so soon.

 

She looks so pretty there....I'm ready! Waiting for the horn serenade....

 

Cheers, Penny

I heard it as 16:25 too. No matter, soon enough.

I just figured out if I go to the PE cam and turn on the volume; then switch back to the other cam, everything is A-OK!

[Krazy Kruizers]

Just watched one white truck speed around the corner.

Yep, that's what I did.

 

Does anyone know which camera angle to watch for the wave???

[innlady1]

Interesting...there are 2 white trucks now. I've not seen that previously.

Happy to be able to help. I can see that there's still much to do on Staten Island.

 

Hi Josie.

I must be one of the only ones who doesn't have volume on the Fort Lauderdale cam! I do on the Port Everglades, however.

 

Shiela if you pull down the tab that says watch another cam you can do the 2 in 1 preview and see both at the same time

[mamaofami]

Lines going up.

[erewhon]

I heard it as 16:25 too. No matter, soon enough.

 

First I heard it announced for 16.25, then a couple of minutes later, the 16.45 time.

Usually if you have sound on Pt Everglades you have it on Ft Lauderdale. Do you come in on Port Everglades first and then switch over to Lauderdale?
