No toots. 😞

[travelnap]

No toots, what is up with that?  They are going to ruin HAL's tooting reputation.

No Nieuw Statendam toots. Boo.

I sure hope she does better than that when I board.

Dinner is overdone in the oven.  I think I had better go rescue it.  Take care everyone.  Happy cruising to all!

Bon Appetit.  I will need to leave soon as well.

I hope so. A big let down after the Oosterdam.

[POA1]

Thank goodness. I thought the Koningsdam was going to be mute as well.

[fatcat04]

There!! Better!!

[travelnap]

Nice long toots from the Kdam.  That is more like it.

[mocruzer]

Bon Voyage NS.  

[lka1012]

Well, gotta go meet some friends.

[rafinmd]

Time for dinner.  Hope the NA does like the Koningsdam and not her newer sister.

Did I just hear Adventure leaving in 5? Might be a while for NA.

[Happily@Sea]

Sounded like RCI toot to me - Adventure leaving

 

[travelnap]

Adventure of the Seas will beat the Nieuw Amsterdam out.

I'm going to try looking for Canadianbear. She's supposed to be wearing a red baseball cap.

Trying Tapatalk on this sail away thread. It does not update nearly as well as the old site did, but all the fonts change to the system one, so that's a plus.

 

I couldn't get the CC forum on it the other day when I tried.

I must check again, but it may not like my IOS (Ipad).

You have a much better view than we do.  The camera is not near as good for viewing as your balcony is.

Me too.

The webcam can zoom through. I need binoculars for that.

Try deleting the Cruise Critic account inside the app. Then close the app, reopen it, and try adding CC back. The integration is not ready for prime time yet though.

Nieuw Amsterdam is underway, should be right behind the RCI ship.

[travelnap]

Adventure with her low rumbling toots.

[POA1]

Nieuw Amsterdam making the turn.

I certainly will exit the port gates, I think on the Miraflores shuttle the first day and a tour the second.'

 

When I was on the Zaandam the shuttle went to a shopping center in an area without much of interest.  The destination this time looks a lot nicer.  I think one of the benefits of a Grand Voyage.

What I meant was walking out by yourself past those gates to explore Callao on foot. Not a good idea since it's a crime filled ghetto out there! Enjoy your voyage Roy and say hi to Norm, PRDM's new S/O starting tomorrow
