Rare *Miss G* Posted September 16, 2018 Author #153 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Here is the view from where we ate lunch. We had fish and chips and they were delicious. Best I’ve had in the US. Sorry but I forgot the food porn again! I will try to do better next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare *Miss G* Posted September 16, 2018 Author #154 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Here is the Murphy Dock. I don’t know if it’s really called that but that’s what I’m going with. It opens up from the side of the ship for the tenders. It’s pretty ingenious, really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare kazu Posted September 16, 2018 #158 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Pretty, pretty pics, MIss G. (Is it ok if I skip the astericks?) Trying to see how packed the touriset boat was. It looks really interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Copper10-8 Posted September 16, 2018 #159 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Here is the Murphy Dock. I don’t know if it’s really called that but that’s what I’m going with. It opens up from the side of the ship for the tenders. It’s pretty ingenious, really. They (there are four) are known as tender platforms. They are hydraulically lowered and then rigged (rope lines/stairs) by what HAL calls "Boatmen" officially known as Lifesaving Attendants. The sailor in your pic is one of them (LSA's are a step up from sailors OB) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruisepucks Posted September 16, 2018 #160 Share Posted September 16, 2018 We will be in Bar Harbor in October on the Zuiderdam as she repositions to Fort Lauderdale.

It looks really interesting. Yes, please skip the asterisks. The only reason I put them there is because CC told me somebody already had the name Miss G. So I looked for the other Miss G’s posts and there are none. :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare *Miss G* Posted September 17, 2018 Author #164 Share Posted September 17, 2018 I love that you pop in with your explanations and details Copper! Thank you! I love learning new things. We will be in Bar Harbor in October on the Zuiderdam as she repositions to Fort Lauderdale. Miss G Do you recall the name of the restaurant where you had lunch in Bar Harbour. Beautiful view. Cruisepucks, I believe it was called Wharfside. I will confirm with my husband and let you know if I’m wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare *Miss G* Posted September 17, 2018 Author #165 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Not Miss G, but it looks like Stewmans to me. Oh! Thank you takemewithyou. Sometimes I am pretty oblivious to stuff. I will come back and confirm! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare *Miss G* Posted September 17, 2018 Author #166 Share Posted September 17, 2018 DAY FIVE - HALIFAX, NOVA SCOTIA Today, at 2:00 am, the clocks went ahead by one hour. So instead of waking up at 5:30 am I woke up at 6:30 am. Ship Time still has us at 5:30 am. Here is sunrise: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare *Miss G* Posted September 17, 2018 Author #167 Share Posted September 17, 2018 We saw whales! It was not long after we left Bar Harbor. The Captain had been mentioning them on his announcements. Sadly, I don’t have a picture of the whales so here is one of them bringing in the tender. Not the whales; the crew. Whales aren’t qualified to work on ships.

Rare *Miss G* Posted September 17, 2018 Author #168 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Last night we watched a charming Canadian movie called The Grand Seduction. It was quite funny and we really enjoyed it. Because the Master Chef event was in the Pinnacle Grill we opted to eat in our room. We ordered off the main dining room menu. The guy took my order then I asked if I was coming to the dining room. :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare *Miss G* Posted September 17, 2018 Author #169 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Right now we are sitting off this island. I am guessing we are waiting for something. Either that or there is a pier on the port side of the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Turtles06 Posted September 17, 2018 #173 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Right now we are sitting off this island. I am guessing we are waiting for something. Either that or there is a pier on the port side of the ship. Yes, a pier for sure! :D When we were in Halifax on the Zuiderdam last week, just before sail away, Captain Vaartjes announced that he could see a portajohn on that little island and said he had no idea why it was there. ;p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare *Miss G* Posted September 17, 2018 Author #175 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Wonderful photos, Miss G! Thank you Walfam! And also, again, many thanks to everyone who has commented on them. I’m really happy you are enjoying them. Yes, a pier for sure! :D When we were in Halifax on the Zuiderdam last week, just before sail away, Captain Vaartjes announced that he could see a portajohn on that little island and said he had no idea why it was there. ;p I saw it! So random. I saw people walking so maybe there is repair work going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
