MS Zuiderdam Sail-Away February 13, 2015

[kazu]

I can see my ship from here !!!!!

 

You have no idea how long I've waited to say that! LOL We are at the Hilton Ft Lauderdale Marina, about to make a final run to Walgreens before taking a taxi to the port. We have asked for a "Sail-Away" from the webcam gods and will be on our friend's balcony on Deck 4, the deck immediately above the lifeboats. Their cabin is about 2/3 down the length of the ship where we will be proudly displaying our "Rider Nation" green, black and white football team flag. On our balcony (1 floor above), we will have small Canadian flags attached to the glass (yes I'm planning on cleaning off the tape residue) so our family can see where we'll be living for the next 10 days.

 

Special thanks to POA1 and Huskerchick for their advice on places to eat/drink/visit during our short stay.

 

Smooth Sailing! :) :) :)

I think that I read that the Zuiderdam will have a departure time of 3:30??

 

Yes, she is now scheduled to depart at 1530.

Hope Craft Disease doesn't set it. Really want to see you off. Will be looking for Canadian flags & my favourite colour, yellow.

 

Ok, at long last, I have to ask forgiveness and beg ignorance, what the heck is Craft disease?

 

Noro?

Little late posting, but hey, I'm retired and felt like sleeping in! It's Friday the 13th so be careful my friends.

 

Zuiderdam is scheduled to sail at 4:00 PM so join us for TGIF and the usual banter. It's been a long week without Dam Sail Away's.

Sounds like someone is dropping lines but it was broken up so I can't tell if it is Zuiderdam or somebody else in port.

[PathfinderEss]

That must have been a different vessel.

[aliaschief]

Has Fort Lauderdale always had that large paddle wheel boat that just went by? First time I have seen it.
