Passing Grand Island.

Passing Thane.

It is chilly and overcast, but it is not raining. We are having to put up with panning. No view blockers - but the Viking ship will restrict Nieuw Amsterdam's swingaround..

[rafinmd]

And no room for a graceful swing around to the dock.

There she is by the tall pole.

I noticed them arriving just before NA showed. 😞

[Happily@Sea]

Out in the clear and soon in the basin.

[leerathje]

She's arriving!

She completed most of it while we were away.

[rafinmd]

Close to the dock.

[leerathje]

I guess no zoom today....

[Happily@Sea]

I see some raindrops.

[rafinmd]

About a ship-width gap.

She made up about half that distance while we were panned away.

[rafinmd]

I think that's it for me today.  Thanks Leanne, Lou & Dave, Carole, and Suzy.

 

Noordam tomorrow.

 

Roy

[Happily@Sea]

Since there will be no zoom and she is by the pier - that's it for me.

 

Noordam is on her last visit tomorrow then a Vanc to Vanc  14 Night Great Alaskan Explorer [skipping Juneau] Sep 17-Oct 1.  She then leaves the area by way of San Diego to Australia. Tomorrow due at 7 or 8 am AST / 11 am Noon EDT but usually arrives closer to 6 am.

 

Thanks to my fellow addicts and an extra to Leanne for the thread.

[Happily@Sea]

With no thread for Noordam - posting here. View blocked today by X Eclipse - the screen is rain-covered, it's still darkish.

 

Not a great day for her last Juneau visit.

Sorry folks....Yes, I'm OK.  another late night with the neighbour....She's dealing with a bad situation with her son (Fentanyl) and was up half the night talking.  I have created a new thread.
