Mizell-Eula Johnson State park across the channel from T25 would be an excellent vantage point, because there is a viewing area at the end, near the inlet channel, where Edge will have to pass on her way in to the port. https://www.floridastateparks.org/sites/default/files/media/file/Mizell-Johnson-brochure.pdf T25 is on the Intracoastal Waterway side of the port, so this should be a good place to go to see most everything. Semi off topic...sorry I see Public Parking nearby the Terminal...does anyone have info? Map Says its the mid port lot.That looks close by.. I will try to download this map and inquire on thd Terminal thread as well. I may have confused 25 and 29 ....guess we'll figure it out when we get there, Edited November 2, 2018 by hcat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, there is parking at the Mid Port garage, however, I do not know how they will handle admission to the Port at the Security Checkpoints for people who are not sailing that day, and therefore do not have Boarding Passes/Passports. The passport is the easy part... the boarding pass, not so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare MVPinBoynton Posted November 2, 2018 #4932 Share Posted November 2, 2018 Here is a link to a larger version of the port map. https://assets.simpleviewcms.com/simpleview/image/upload/v1/clients/porteverglades/Port_Everglades_Map_REVISED_November_30_2016_bae57d31-04c5-41d1-b193-a4bf242d9293.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vtcruising Posted November 2, 2018 #4933 Share Posted November 2, 2018 (edited) I was thinking of starting a thread about seeing the Edge in FLL (arriving, departing, etc.). I have this satellite view. It shows T25, the park, the bridge, the area where the public often cheers and waves at the ships as they leave the port (I was on early Oasis and Allure cruises and it was quite a thrill to wave as we went through that area - the cowbells, horns, etc. are a great way to start a cruise!) and my hotel with a tower room facing the port (I may or may not see the Edge).

The new one has the changes that were done when T25 was built for X. As you can see, T21 and T25 are the only ones now on that eastern leg of the "U" on the new one. Can you get a link to the current one? I would love to have it, since the one I have is so small and harder to read. Thanks!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MVPinBoynton Posted November 2, 2018 #4935 Share Posted November 2, 2018 Hopefully, we will get a definitive arrival time so we can see her arrive. That park looks like a great place to see everything. When the Oasis first arrived, I had to go into the backyard of a vacant house that was for sale to get pics. The park will be much better.

Here is a link to the guide that I believe you are talking about. https://en.calameo.com/read/0046735382565e1f779ac I would have thought that the Port Everglades site would have had the most up to date info, but it didn't.

They have also done a lot in these last few days. Talking about creativity and artistic, these amongst others are cool. I also found this especially cool.

Me too, but I got a little nervous about a bottle of wine falling and hitting me in the head. Oh well, maybe they would let me sail the Edge free for life... I do think that stairway, with the pendulum, is going to be an amazing focal point for that part of the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Retreat gets a hippie van and the Resort Deck gets a magnificent horse? So many potential places... Rooftop Garden as part of the giant chess set, near the Pendulum Stairway, in the Art Gallery or in the Grand Plaza as C-Dragons said (much like the fancy cars seen on the Promenade on Royal). I'm kind of hoping to find out onboard, much like if the hippie van is there - a few surprises would be fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lauderdale visiting family for Thanksgiving. That part of the plan hasn't changed so at the very least I'm hoping to see a glimpse of the Edge when I fly into FLL on November 20...and then drive past the port on my way out of the airport. Not knowing where the new terminal will be might make that tough! I have a Med cruise booked for next May (wishing our group could afford the Edge for that trip) so that will have to hold me over until next December! Happy Friday Susan 17 St bridge will probably be your best chance to see Edge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
