Eurodam and Koningsdam in Juneau Harbour on September 30, 2024

[Cruise Suzy]

Just got confirmation of another partial payment for April Eurodam cruise. One of our credit cards gives a bonus rebate per quarter on travel expenses. Didn't want to miss out on the extra $$. The games we play to maximize rebates and OBC! (November Eurodam cruise is now past final payment.)

It looks like Eurodam behind storage containers - it's really hard to tell.

 

Yep, she's coming!

Now in full view in the basin

Looks like we will be getting Eurodam's stern view - first time this season.

[Cruise Suzy]

AARGH! An ad!

[Cruise Suzy]

Why the boardwalk???

[Cruise Suzy]

Aaaah, back to our BHB!

Someone using napkins(?) to signal from an aft balcony 

[Happily@Sea]

Didn't take her long to get to the pier.

[Happily@Sea]

Eurodam still using her engines - is she having to hold herself against the pier until she gets tied down??

[Cruise Suzy]

Looks like last aft lines being attached

[Happily@Sea]

Yup - there goes the last one.

[Happily@Sea]

Looks like buffering is back just after last line secured.

 

See you in PEV/FLL Oct 19th. No idea what time Volendam will leave for drydock.

 

Thanks, Suzy. And thanks Leanne for the threads for the season. @leerathje

Another ad, so I'm off to fix supper

[Happily@Sea]

According to a report on the Daily, Eurodam is also overnighting here in Juneau. 

 

I must have read it wrong in the first place - it is Eurodam on the letter - how did I get Kdam??

 

So maybe Kdam not overnighting. But I won't be here anyway but I did misspeak earlier.

Besides these 2 - Noordam is heading to Japan and is the only other BHB still in Alaska waters - and on her way to Japan [NOT stopping in Juneau of course].

 

Nieuw Amsterdam left Vancouver yesterday heading for PEV/FLL for Oct 20 arrival. 

 

Volendam cited in the OP - will be dry docking from PEV  Oct 19th - so no knowing what time she will actually depart - minus passengers. She will be gone until November 9th returning to PEV for sailaway.

 

 

Yes.  but even if her sailaway is late and we can't see it, Nieuw Amsterdam is on the 20th...that sailaway we will see!

Due to dangerous weather we will be docked in Juneau for the next two days, and will unfortunately not go to Glacier Bay. 

 

Sorry to hear this...the weather does look horrible on the North Coast!
