Now if we could get a zoom!

[erewhon]

Zoom time.:D

[Boytjie]

Since it's a charter, could they have reversed the schedule to avoid the bad weather?

 

I doubt it, heading to Key West puts them away from the last stop:

 

Jan 16 Fort Lauderdale, Florida

Jan 17 Key West, Florida

Jan 18 At Sea

Jan 19 Ocho Rios, Jamaica

Jan 20 At Sea

Jan 21 George Town, Grand Cayman

Jan 22 At Sea

Jan 23 Fort Lauderdale, Florida

My queendom for a zoom. Well, maybe not the whole queendom, just a part. Maybe not a big part, maybe I'll just show you a picture instead. :D

 

Smooth Sailing ! :) :) :)

Re-Checking In

Had to get dinner prepped and into the oven.

[Boytjie]

She's going past.

 

I think that position is a few hours old. Here is the location shown by http://www.sailwx.info

 

[erewhon]

Loveboat getting away first? - but Eurodam may beat her.

[ger_77]

Departing toots?

[Krazy Kruizers]

Think I just made it.

[Scrapnana]

Sounds like she is ready to go.

 

Somebody having muster drill.

[PathfinderEss]

Guess we're not getting a close up.

[Scrapnana]

Eurodam moving.

[Boytjie]

Tug boat with the Veendam in Tampa.

I arrived just in time to hear some toots. But first, I had to investigate to see why the page was so large - I see people have been posting map pictures! Very exciting.:)

 

I have no markers on the map below PEW, but I guess that's Eurodam moving away from the dock?

And the Eurodam starts the parade today.

 

Smooth Sailing ! :) :) :)

[Lizzie68]

NA Moving! Better pic on the PE cam.

 

Oops, must be the Eurodam.

[erewhon]

Eurodam leads the parade.:)

[PathfinderEss]

She's on the move.

[Boytjie]

Think I just made it.

 

You did!

[Krazy Kruizers]

Eurodam is moving out.

[Scrapnana]

At least we got a zoom on the PE webcam.

[SJSULIBRARIAN]

Finally a close up of the Eurodam

[Krazy Kruizers]

You did!

 

I was hurrying as fast as I could.

[St Pete Cruiser]

Our little port in Tampa does have a better close up. It is sunny here , too. I'll need two tv's to look at both ports now. Veendam letting go lines.

[ger_77]

Next Sunday I'll be waving from the other side of the camera; can't wait!

 

Smooth Sailing! :) :) :)
