Rare kazu Posted April 16, 2015 Author #327 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Is it dark and overcast today for the Panama Canal? It looks gloomy. Also, is that the Westerdam approaching Mira Flores? It is dark and cloudy. we had a tad of rain but the views are great and the lack of strong sun helps keep it cooler :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare kazu Posted April 16, 2015 Author #328 Share Posted April 16, 2015 I am with the rest of them on the Rotterdam deck. You know, I was going to ask for a cold shower. I know she has cold water at least - LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare LAFFNVEGAS Posted April 16, 2015 #329 Share Posted April 16, 2015 It is dark and cloudy. we had a tad of rain but the views are great and the lack of strong sun helps keep it cooler :) It looks like the kind of weather we had on the Statendam in 2009 about this same week in April :) It did help with the sun not beating down on us .

Rare rafinmd Posted April 16, 2015 #330 Share Posted April 16, 2015 I was watching from the fire house and then it slipped my mind when I came back home. Just entering a lock and lookin' great. Roy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Scrapnana Posted April 16, 2015 #332 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Thanks to the cloud cover the temperature is actually cooler than when I went through the canal last year in January. Even with the humidity it is not too bad out on deck. I am having trouble getting the website to load. I got one screenshot and then I lost the site.

Rare kazu Posted April 16, 2015 Author #334 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Lots of passengers out on the bow of the ship. let us know when you can see us. We are not on the bow.

Rare rafinmd Posted April 16, 2015 #337 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Are you on the forward "porch"? I see people but not with much clarity. Right now the regular camera has a better zoom the HD camera. Roy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruisevers Posted April 16, 2015 #343 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Did they have something special on the bow going on? There were lots of big umbrellas...some kind of food stands possibly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
summer slope Posted April 16, 2015 #344 Share Posted April 16, 2015 I knew how to do that to look at the pictures, but didn't know to do that while taking one. Thank you . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare kazu Posted April 16, 2015 Author #346 Share Posted April 16, 2015 (edited) Did they have something special on the bow going on? There were lots of big umbrellas...some kind of food stands possibly? they have been there since this morning. There were panama rolls, water, juice, mimosas at 8:00 am, etc. It's part of the Canal transit :) We had so much fun going through these locks. At the observation tower, there were a ton of people and there is a guy announcing. Obviously the Sail a Way Gang's fame (or is that infamy) has reached far and wide. people were waving to us madly and we were cheering and waving back and yelled the Sail a Way Gang. the narrator counted us on the balcony and we were the focus as we went through - too funny :) Edited April 16, 2015 by kazu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PathfinderEss Posted April 16, 2015 #347 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Sorry, tried but never did see you. Seemed to be at the wrong angle. Just a question were you on the right side or the left of the ship? Great photo's of the Canal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a question were you on the right side or the left of the ship? Great photo's of the Canal. port side Melodie which last time I checked was the left side. too bad. In this case it's the "right" side for the webcam as there is no webcam on the starboard (right ) side. poor battery dying. have to plug in and will be back on the ipad later. fun day today - lots of cheers, good fun, good company and everything.

I'll have to remember that next year when we go through...so DD and DSIL can see us. We have a starboard cabin so will have to stand on the bow.
