[aliaschief]

Hi folks. Glad to be here in time. She's looking good.

 

Mumsy.

 

Cheers! How about a Watney Red while waiting.:D

[startwin]

Checking in! Hi everyone, wouldn't miss this sailaway for the world:) Apart from being the last (?) one from PE, so many of our buddies onboard.

That Dania Street bridge operator sounds like he's about 95 yrs old:eek:

Chief, in Cardiff we have Brains Beer as our local brew. I haven't had Watneys for a long, long time.

So envious! It says 85 degrees in FLL, and it's really cold and miserable here. Can anyone tell me how to post a screen shot or photo from a mac onto CC? I usually just drag pictures from my desktop into emails, but that doesn't seem to work for CC. Thanks for any help.

It also wouldn't be the same without you. Welcome.

I saw the sail in this morning and if they leave at 4 I will see it too. Want to see the wave(s) and the flags.... But I have to have DS at the hospital for 5 so may end up missing Kazu and the gang....

[Scrapnana]

She's looking good.

 

She does. And it is a pretty day for a sail away. And she is in the perfect berth for watching her. Can't get much better for an addict.

Aha, I believe I had one of those a couple of years ago while touring Snowdonia National Park. Brain has been failing me ever since.:eek: Actually it went well with Fish and Chips.

1700 Departure for PRDM

[1of4]

They just confirmed 17:00....so I will miss it!!:mad:

 

 

Edited:

copper beat me to it!!

[aliaschief]

It's official just heard the Prinsendam Bridge state Pilot arrives 16:45 for a 17:00 sailing. I came in third in the typing contest!:o

[Mumsysailor]

Brains Beer? Brilliant!

 

The Brains has given way to a nice white wine for me this evening. Cheers!

Nice, possible Greek, accent by the OOW on PRDM;) She'll be assisted by one Port Everglades harbor tug on departure

[innlady1]

Thank you, Chief! This is a BIG one...lots of CCer's and the last one of the season!

I may have to go into Boston tomorrow to see the Veendam to get my fix....

For us rookies does OOW stand for Officer On Watch?

Goes well with a Clarke's pie and a rugga match too.

 

Mumsy.

[sail7seas]

Officer of the Watch........ took me a minute to figure out about whom you were speaking as Captain Andre most definitely does not have a Greek accent. :)

Check out camera #3. Anyone want a cruise on the Mayflower?:)

 

That galleon is a training ship for the Spanish Navy, according to a question I asked a few days ago on Cruise Critic. The person who answered was a retired USCG officer. She was in Port Canaveral for several days and left two days ago to head for Port Everglades. There apparently were tour opportunities for those interested in those ports.

Talk about "old school"!:eek:

:D:D, just finishing my lunch!

I just saw some activity at the back of the ship where Kazu said she would try and peg out the flags before muster but without some zoom it was difficult to tell if it was them or not.

 

Do they usually zoom in a bit more at muster time? I am finding it hard to make out anything in the shade.
