Do you think he is trying to catch some channel cats there in the channel?

I wonder how big those lifeboats are on the Edge if she can get by with just 12 of them for the hole ship.

Checking in. To satisfy DH's need for statistics I did some checking and, if all ships are at capacity, there are over 23,000 passengers heading out today. The largest is the Allure (5402) and the smallest is Pacific Princess (674).

Rumbling toots from the Edge.

That's good for about 2,676 passengers.  Are the rest of the passengers required to be good swimmers?

Regal Princess next in the parade today.

She did as asked.

Lost the sound on the PE cam so I only heard one set of toots from Regal.  Rebooted and still no sound so hope it returns soon.
