Is that the Rhapsody on the Galveston site

[Gingee]

I just looked at the port cam for Galveston. Is that the Rhapsody that is shown in the picture or some other ship? I can't tell.

The ship you are looking at (1045hrs 12/31/2006) Is actully the Carnival Conquest. The Rhapsody of the Seas is docked right behind her.

Looks like Carnival Conquest in my viewer. Rhapsody I believe would be behind the Carnival ship.

[Woe is me]

That is the Carnival Conquest, Rhapsody is behind her.

Carnival ships are easy to tell, they're the ones with the red smokestacks.

 

Right now (noon CST) you can see Rhapsody's shadow on the water behind Conquest.

Thanks. I wondered if that was a Carnival ship. We have been on the Conquest. I should have known better. Then it went out of New Orleans.

You will be able to see Rhapsody around 4:30 - 5:30 after Conquest heads out and you can watch Rhapsody leave at 5.PM

About 20 minutes after the Conquest or Rhapsody sail, you can get a beautiful, self updating view of them sailing by Seawolf park in Galveston.

It will be about 20 to 30 minutes after they leave the pier. Sometime, the webcam owner pans the camera so you can follow them all the way down the channel and after they make the turn around the point out to sea.

 

I usually jump the magnification on the page to 200% for a very good view. We will be on the Rhapsody on 01/07/2007 and will wave as I go by. :)

Since they got to port late, does that mean that they sail away late? I thought Conquest was supposed to leave at 4:00 and if I am not mistaken (which I very well could be), I thought that Conquest is still showing to be sitting at the Galveston port.

 

Thanks,

Conquest is scheduled for 1630 and Rhapsody for 1700. Conquest is already a little late. She hasn't even started her engines, and they usually do that about 10-15 minutes before sailing.

Okay, I am sure that this is going to be a dumb question, but here goes...how can you tell that Conquest hasn't started their engines?:confused:

 

I am assuming because there is not any churning water, maybe?

[Hypo]

No smoke from her stacks, when they start them they really smoke for a couple of minutes. Also, the passenger gangway is still in place, they lower it (angle it down) just before they are ready to go. :)

Looks like a beautiful day in Galveston today. We should try to order up a nice day for us next Sunday.

 

Hypo

[nascar3lover]

Oh. Okay...I can't even see the gangway from the glare....lol

[nascar3lover]

Yes, it has been a beautiful day here all day. I already ordered a beautiful day for next Sunday...we will just have to wait and see if it gets delivered!!:p

Conquest leaving now

[nascar3lover]

I was watching it pull away. Do you think it left late because it got in late?

[bosteph]

Conquest is finally pulling out.

[Hypo]

She should pass Seawolf Park in about 20 minutes.

Looks like Rhapsody has her engines started. She won't be too long.

[nascar3lover]

Conquest just went by Seawolf Park

 

Rhapsody needs to hurry up and leave so it can hurry up and get back, right, Hypo...lol

[Hypo]

You are so right!! I will probably miss seeing her go pass Seawolf, as we have to go to our neighbors house for dinner at 6, so I will take this opportunity to wish you a Happy New Year and will see everyone on CC tomorrow.

 

Hypo

[nascar3lover]

I will miss seeing her pass Seawolf Park also since I will be leaving work soon and will be driving home when she goes past. Happy New Year, everyone...See you next year....:D
