Thank you for the reminder.

I've requested a wave - 2 decks above the third lifeboat. Wearing flashing Christmas lights necklace - hope to have lights on railing as well.

 

I've been envious of passengers while watching sail-aways the past few months - now I'll be in one! Yes, I've been lurking - takes me too long to type, so I haven't been posting while I watch with the rest of you.

 

"See" you tomorrow - I'll be waving and wishing you were aboard too.

For the early birds who like to watch the sail ins, the Koningsdam will be arriving in Ft Lauderdale about 5:45 AM.

I intend to REALLY enjoy this cruise 'cause I've learned so many tips to having fun on CC. And Bon Voyage to you and yours as I won't be home to see the sail-away.

Appointments may mean that I will miss sailaway.

Jacqui,

 

Since ms stands for 'motor ship' - I think it is safe to use ms for the King - no matter how weird it looks.

 

I plan to be here for sailaway.

We in the Pacific Northwest are experiencing a lot of snow. As a result school is closed today and it just was announced we are closed tomorrow so I can watch a mid-week sailaway! I lurk on the weekend ones. Bon Voyage and looking forward to watching Port Everglades as I look out the window at a foot of snow!

Lost power for 1 1/2 hours last night -- high winds.

[Krazy Kruizers]

Won't be long and we will see her.

[Krazy Kruizers]

She is getting closer.

Excellent Suzy!

 

We’ll be watching for you.

[Cruise Suzy]

I'm here. One of the few sail-ins I've been to. Too excited to sleep I guess. Can't see ships from where we're staying.
