I wish I was standing under the 17th street bridge where one catches the Water Taxi.  This be a good spot to watch these two fine ships come in the port..

The second ship looks like it is coming in.

Sitting here with tears of joy in my eyes, it's moments like this that tell me we are going to get through this together. We are going to be okay.

Rotterdam still way out.

Hey Daily girls! Our ships are here!  We will have plenty to discuss over coffee with @richwmn in the morning!

Meanwhile, running to fridge for the champagne!

Could you hear me yelling?  I am so thankful. I so hope everyone recovers.

The Zaandam had more escorts than a Coast Guard cutter with a load of coke. I cropped the photo down to the ship.

 

 

Great pic, POA!!  Nice to see you!  Missed you lately..

reading the comments on Periscope are driving me mad.

And these reporters on WSVN should have done their research before going to this story... "oh the crew isn't coming off??"

One of our esteemed local news organizations was questioning whether Port Everglades could handle TWO SHIPS AT THE SAME TIME. I kid you not. How can you be "the news" and not realize that PEV handles 9+ ships all season long?

When is Rotterdam scheduled to dock?

[SMSACE6]

been watching, and following for a while now.. am now crying tears of joy and sorrow, and everything in between. So glad to see Zaandam in, and Rotterdam to follow.

44,000 on the PE cam....WOW!!!

FOX NEWS Channel showed the Zaandam coming into the port.

The crew is NOT coming off per the Mayor of FL on Miami Channel 7.

Hi Cat!

I have happy tears!! I haven’t cried like this since this whole ordeal came to be starting with having to leave the Rotterdam on 3/15! This felt so good.

Thanks. I snapped the photo while I was sheltering in place.

Was that you cat?? I believe I did hear you!

[LEtue]

It is emotional since all of us know the excitement of boarding a ship for a wonderful journey and then seeing what these passengers have experienced since.  

 

So wonderful to see them sail in the Port Everglades!

[kazu]

She’s about to dock.  YAY 😅

Yet we hold forth 'the media' as beacons of truth and founts of infallibility.     Mmhmm.    Scott.
