I don’t know that we know the true story. If you look at the port schedule there is no ship in port tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PS they may have had maintenance or something else come up…I just don’t think we will know or be told the correct thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't you just see the MSC Don Giovanni container vessel anchoring near the coast? They wait until we're gone this afternoon. Corner Brook is an industrial port. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare cr8tiv1 Posted August 16 #36 Share Posted August 16 Good luck on your voyage. I do hope that Ernesto doesn't interfere with any of your ports or cause rough seas on your way to Greenland. He's out to sea right now...but heading NorthEast. I have a friend of a friend on this cruise so am glad to have your updates. Thank you. Just returned from Greenland. Interesting "island" with not much to do. Why is Greenland not a continent? Greenland, like Australia, is separated by waters from other landmasses, but Greenland is considered a large island rather than a continent. Part of this stems from the fact that Greenland is attached to the North American tectonic plate and not its own plate as Australia is. https://homework.study.com/explanation/why-is-greenland-not-a-continent.html#:~:text=Greenland%2C like Australia%2C is separated,own plate as Australia is. Excursions are much cheaper from the town, but need to get there early to get the few slots. Tendering is a pain. Long waits for disembarkation/shuttles and even longer lines to get back to the ship. Credit cards are welcomed there. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EDVM96 Posted August 16 #37 Share Posted August 16 We have a good chance for Aurora Saturday night. Peak around 1:00 am Sunday morning. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EDVM96 Posted August 17 #38 Share Posted August 17 Because the Princess bridgecams are still not working online: This is how we cruise at night with activated ice searchlights. It's a requirement of the IMO Polar Code. https://www.dma.dk/safety-at-sea/the-arctic-region 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
