njoyndride Posted January 23, 2011 #1 Share Posted January 23, 2011 Got up way too early for a Sunday but it was worthwhile. It was a beautiful morning in San Francisco, sweater weather in January gotta love it. Met another CC'r (Hi Steve) who was also taking pictures. We started at the GGB and then moved to AT&T Park and finally to near the dry dock. For all those worried about near cruises she was under her own power and looked just fine, keeping fingers crossed for all of you.

iceleven Posted January 24, 2011 #12 Share Posted January 24, 2011 When I woke up this morning (late) I turned on my computer to see the tracking of where she was and was disappointed to see she was already in and under both bridges and less than 1/2 hour to being docked. It was such a treat to see your wonderful photographs and now I don't feel so terrible about not being able to get there and see her for myself. Maybe I can watch her leave.

SteveB48 Posted January 24, 2011 #13 Share Posted January 24, 2011 My son and I drove from San Jose to San Francisco at about 6:00 this morning and arrived at the SF Yacht Club parking lot about an hour before Splendor came through the gate. Better early than late! It was nice to have Sharon and her DH for some company while we waited. Most of these photos are of Splendor but we did take some while waiting for her to arrive. http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=273537&id=561049885&l=e201cfe04e Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just finished uploading enjoy: http://travel.webshots.com/album/579608152AvzHHZ Did you spot someone in a white hoody darting down Pier 14 off of Embaracadero? lol! That was me. I happened to be driving down to San Mateo, over the bay bridge and spotted a flash of red off to the right...I honestly did not expect her here this soon! I floored it to the Embarcadero, didnt pay for parking and ran.....:o Felt like a giddy schoolkid...but it was so cool. By pics are horrible because all I had at the time was my phone. http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=1344336 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveB48 Posted January 25, 2011 #19 Share Posted January 25, 2011 Not only did Splendor arrive in SF yesterday but so did it's new diesel engine. How do you transport a really big diesel? In a really BIG plane! http://www.flickr.com/photos/wjcendak/sets/72157625899503788/with/5385470479/ Thanks to Bill for letting me post his pictures.

kath00 Posted January 25, 2011 #21 Share Posted January 25, 2011 Was she still listing to one side? It looked a bit like it from one of the photos but could be just me. Thanks for the great pix, BTW! Love the NBC news camera shots. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The damage must have been pretty extensive to require a whole new engine. Wouldn't you love to see shots of the engine room? :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
