All courtesy of PTZtv. There’s a great assortment of Live cams (which I’ve been glued to all day), and we’ll be able to watch ANTHEM pull into Port Canaveral (Tuesday) and Nassau (Thursday) before returning again next Sunday.

CruiseMapper and MarineTraffic have both been working well. . .

There was not much of a line to get into the terminal (maybe 10 passengers).  A port rep asked me when my scheduled appointment was, and I said it was at 1:30. He suggested that I get in this line and I walked right into the terminal. 

 

The security process was very easy, and then I checked in. It only took about 5 to 10 minutes for check in. The time between parking my car and boarding the ship took only about 20 minutes.

 

 

How does the capacity on board seem?  i know they're ramping up somewhat but curious if you think the reduction in passengers is enough to explain the quick boarding or do you think it's more a matter of them being that well organized?  I'm expecting to have a more hectic experience if they've got more folks sailing by the time my cruise rolls around in March.

I will find out real numbers tomorrow. . . I have been hearing 40-50-60% to capacity. I will try to speak to someone that knows.

We were on last week's Thanksgiving sailing of Anthem, and it was at 65% capacity.

@Radio How do you get virtually perfect scans of the Cruise Compass?

I have a very small mobile scanner. Brother DS640. . . It is very compact, and easy to use.

Looks like you are coming up on Virginia Beach, look for Carnival Legend on your Starboard side which came out of Baltimore last night.

Love seeing the pictures and following along.  Thanks for posting the compass.....and good to see it back.  Heard that they stopped printing them for the last cruise.  One thing that I've noticed watching the Anthem cruises is the headliners seem permanent.  i.e. Beatles seems more like a regular production show, and it even looks like the same comedian (and probably some Jersey Boy type show later in the week).  Guessing that's a covid thing so they aren't bringing performers on and off the ship with each cruise.

Hope you're having a wonderful time so far.

The Adobe Scan App for your phone also works very well.  It automatically straightens, crops, adjusts brightness, contrast, etc.

That was explained during the post-Covid version of the entertainment tour on the Mariner last month.  The performers have to quarantine for two weeks every time they get on a different ship, so they are staying longer to make it worthwhile.  They said they tried (or considered) categorizing the performers as guests, but then they were limited to two weeks on board.
