| | The Oosterdam docked at the San Diego Pier across the lot from the terminal. |
| | | Dr. Neal was driven from LA to San Diego by his friend, "Themacmonk." |
| | | There, he met two friends from CruiseCritics - Mrs. and Mr. LAFFNVEGAS. |
|
| | Check-In took place in the "Big Top" tent. We wound through lines to check in. |
| | | We then boarded. It took about 45 minutes from arrival to boarding. |
| | | After board, 30 minutes before scheduled departure, the ship held ... |
|
| | ... the traditional "life boat drill." Women and Children First! |
| | | The view from the Oosterdam was lovely while we awaited departure. |
| | | From the forward observation deck one could see Anthony's Fish Grotto. |
|
| | | From ashore LAFFNVEGAS spied and photographed Rev. Neal taking photos! |
| | | Thanks to LAFFNVEGAS for these excellent photos! |

| | | The Sail away party on the aft deck. |
| | | It was a wonderful party, but the ship was late departing due to a "mishap." |
