Did she dock in Lauderdale? Still off Panama, Carol. Heard the Dutch government (she's Dutch-flagged like all other dam ships) is now involved in attempting to persuade the Panamanians to allow her to transit the canal. If unsuccessful, she'll be heading north in the Pacific. Be safe Carol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Djptcp Posted March 28, 2020 #29 Share Posted March 28, 2020 We had been booked in a Neptune Suite for the April 1st Veendam cruise. So sad we had to cancel but totally approve of the cruise lines having to shut down operations. We are booked on her again out of Tampa in Dec. and hope we get to go. Keep social distancing and keep well everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are booked on the trans Atlantic which will, hopefully, still go, providing of course that NADM makes it over to this side of the pond in June/July or so! 🤞 We are 223 days and counting! Thanks in advance for keeping it warm for us! 😄 1 hour ago, fatcat04 said: Us too. Bittersweet to see her today. But oh it is nice to see cruise ships in port again even if only for supplies. The cams make that so easy to "be there". I've not been on many cruises, but I am now hooked on that Cruise Life, including watching the ships come in.

mamaofami Posted March 28, 2020 #34 Share Posted March 28, 2020 New Rochelle, NY , where this virus started in NY is our former home town and we still have family there. Thankfully, they are ok and the containment order has been lifted for the city. This hit very close to home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Vict0riann Posted March 28, 2020 #36 Share Posted March 28, 2020 (edited) Thank you John! I hope to be here. I like surprises, too! We are hunkering down at home, but running out of necessities, like tp and pinot grigio! Decisions will have to be made. The waters are very quiet. No little boats wandering around. But other than that, it could be a normal day in Port Everglades... Edited March 28, 2020 by Vict0riann 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not on the limited list of videos I can see without being on Facebook but there is one with Mark performing with his dad. Until his death, Gene performed at Jim's Steakhouse in Peoria. Mark did some cabaret shows on the main stage where he would play a personalized video of his dad performing and sing along with him in a half remote duet.

St Pete Cruiser Posted March 28, 2020 #40 Share Posted March 28, 2020 Thanks Copper John for posting this. I was checking to see if there was anything new on Zaandam & Rotterdam, and noticed what I thought was an old sailaway notice until I checked the date! With less than 1 hour until NA's sailaway, I will stay online to see and hear the surprise! I do hope they will let both ships thru the Canal and soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare rafinmd Posted March 28, 2020 #41 Share Posted March 28, 2020 (edited) NA has moved from "Scheduled" for 1600 to "Confirmed" for 1600. Not always reliable but that's what the schedule says. I see Nieuw Statendam tomorrow from 0700 to 1700. Roy Edited March 28, 2020 by rafinmd 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IllinoisGirl1978 Posted March 28, 2020 #49 Share Posted March 28, 2020 I bounced out of work a bit early, it was a super long day. I ordered takeout to support a local place during sheltering in place. I'm planning on baking on a well earned day off.
