Happily@Sea Posted November 19, 2016 #4 Share Posted November 19, 2016 8 ships with this group - usually that hasn't happened until school is out in December. Lots of practice for the port - early. Hope they are up to it. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ski ww Posted November 19, 2016 #5 Share Posted November 19, 2016 Should be here. Looks like a very busy day, it will most likely be dark by the time the last ones leave. Allan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tgeonetta Posted November 20, 2016 #6 Share Posted November 20, 2016 I guess we will plan on being there early. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Scrapnana Posted November 20, 2016 #7 Share Posted November 20, 2016 Looking forward to all those ships. Hopefully they will get away earlier than 7 pm (the time Eurodam left on Saturday). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happily@Sea Posted November 20, 2016 #8 Share Posted November 20, 2016 When I got up just after 5:30 - 4 ships already docked or docking. Freedom otS, NA and X Silhouette already lined up along ICW. Regal Princess backing into her usual spot by the drawbridge. Allure otS coming up the channel [now on screen]. Then a little break before Veendam, Conquest and Zuiderdam appear.

Happily@Sea Posted November 20, 2016 #12 Share Posted November 20, 2016 (edited) Eurodam on screen coming into Nassau.

Lots on DAM ships on screen today, again. :D :D :D Edited November 20, 2016 by Happily@Sea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ski ww Posted November 20, 2016 #13 Share Posted November 20, 2016 I was going to get up to watch them sailing in, as you can see I got here to late. Allan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happily@Sea Posted November 20, 2016 #14 Share Posted November 20, 2016 Eurodam still turning on Nassau camera. I was too late for the first three at FLL, and I was here at 5:30. :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SJSULIBRARIAN Posted November 20, 2016 #15 Share Posted November 20, 2016 A beautiful day in Ft. Lauderdale. I don't think I have ever seen 8 ships at once there. I wouldn't want to be flying out of FLL today. Hope to be here for the earlier departures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedHeadTexan Posted November 20, 2016 #17 Share Posted November 20, 2016 We are sailing the Zuiderdam today. The port traffic is nuts with 8 ships. It took 40 minutes from when we left the Hilton to drop off luggage and park. Check in was quick and easy. Now just waiting to board. I am super giddy! :) Lisa Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Scrapnana Posted November 20, 2016 #20 Share Posted November 20, 2016 The FLL webcam stopped panning and has been focused on the Regal Princess for at least 30 minutes.:confused::confused::confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happily@Sea Posted November 20, 2016 #21 Share Posted November 20, 2016 I see NA has changed their departure from 3:30 to 4:40 and so far confirmed. Veendam and Zuiderdam still at 4 pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AV8rix Posted November 20, 2016 #22 Share Posted November 20, 2016 ....the amazing parade today. But both of my teams (Cowboys and 'Hawks) playing today so I'll be fixated on TV screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How does it work to request a wave from the webcam? Thanks Linda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Scrapnana Posted November 20, 2016 #24 Share Posted November 20, 2016 (edited) How does it work to request a wave from the webcam? Thanks Linda Click on "Request-a-wave" at the bottom of the Port Everglades webcam page. You fill out a form giving all the info. Always a good idea to have a flag or wave something (a towel will do) so the webcam person can spot you.

Boytjie Posted November 20, 2016 Author #25 Share Posted November 20, 2016 Checking in. First time in a while I have gotten here early and should be able to watch the whole parade of ships departing. Sorry about the "20" not making it in the thread title - I need to pay more attention to the length but with three dams ships it gets difficult! It is a blustery, cold day in New York City and it feels like winter. So sail-away therapy is called for. In eleven weeks we will be boarding the Koningsdam! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
