I am watching you and Andy on the Port Everglades webcam site (the map which I moved over to Tampa shows Brilliance on MarineTraffic dot com) and trying to watch you go under Skyway Bridge on their webcams...we'll see if they catch it on their SLOW cam:rolleyes:

Doubt seriously I'm going to be able to see you go under the bridge, their web cams don't refresh but every hour or so it seems:( I'll keep it onscreen just in case though, but I'll be able to see you start to move on the marine traffic map:)

 

Beautiful day for a sailaway, air temp on the bridge is 67!

 

Bon Voyage MFITS and Andy!

Just like when I sailed on the Jewel in April... Right after muster of mustard work your way to the bow of the ship to the helipad. If we were not delayed a half hour they would be letting the lines to the ship right now. :-) Hope the Alpha folks are alright.

All right all right, you caught me..... It's not an inside room. But I did book an inside room on deck 4 back in August. So apparently this sailing has had difficulty filling the ship. After reading some scuttle butt on my roll call and another thread I belong to about this sailing and new additional TA friend from posts I saw I checked the pricing again two days before sailing.... Had checked a couple weeks prior too. Anyways the pricing for me to bump up to a balcony so I could become an official balcony snob seeing as I had one on my last cruise.. Was the same price... Well $5.00 more. So here I sit in my D1 balcony mid ship on deck 9...errrr I mean my inside cabin. :-)

It shows you are moving at last...1.5 knots..woohoo!!:D

 

I found another web cam:

but don't know how often they refresh...watching now...but it will take a while before you go under the bridge.

View from my balcony. Yup I'm officially becoming a balcony snob! Who do I officially sign up with so I get the rest of my perks? ;-)

We are slowly making are way to the skyway bridge...

 

 

 

I can see it from my balcony but my camera is to weak to pick it up. :-/

We've started the turn so the sun is on the other side of the ship.
