Lost Boy is swanky
What a wonderful trip you had. I only wish I could some day sail away on that ship. My sister and I went down to the terminal last Sunday and watched her sail, heard the horn, and watched that incredible pivot in place the ship does to make the turn into the Port Channel. What an amazing sight. And she is huge. I saw her clearly sailing down the channel when we went across the bridge on the way home. Dwarfed everything in the channel. We also saw that boat drill about an hour before she sailed. Then the party started and we could hear the music and DJ from the observation area across from the the ship. Then the countdown, the whistle blew its song, and off she went at 5pm on the dot. Two harbor police boats closed the channel to water traffic so she could come out and pivot into the channel. It all made me wish I was on the ship, instead of outside just watching. I am glad you had a great time and the pictures really show off everything. Thanks for sharing.
