Let's hope webcam person is on the job and gives us some nice close ups!;)

Thank you for the reminder.

Should be home today to watch the sail in.

'The World' has moved on, but we still have HAL - or at least - Volendam.

See you all there.

I think the World is still there for another hour plus. It's dark in Juneau but I think I see the aft.

Picky, picky. Darn realists.:D ;p

The World is outtahere; Volie chugging northbound in Chatham Strait off Kulu Island

I am so used to Allen Marine sending either St. Peter or St. Phillip to meet the NA and Volie but they've change again today' looks like St. Aqualina.

Let's hope Volendam is in before the "Occasional Rain Showers"

I'm sure she and the occasional showers will arrive at same time. Wouldn't be a typical HAL sail-in without raindrops messing with the viewing. But we can hold out hope for a different pattern.

You know what it is Roy? Allen Marine just plain's got too many saints floating around ;p

They sure have a lot. When I was on the Kennicott last year I walked by their yard and wondered what all those boats did. Now I plan to be on one of them 51 weeks from today.

I posted prematurely. St. Aqualina is headed up Tracy Arm and St. Philip is headed towards the Volendam.

Rain came really early.

Volie now northbound Stephens Passage, having passed Gambier Bay, heading for just another typical summer day in Juneau

Look like another wet day in Juneau. They ever going to catch a break?

Allan

AIS is running behind but it looks like Volendam is meeting St. Philip about 10AM, should be just about per schedule but later than usual.

Somebody's having some technical problems, my guess is National Geographic Quest.

It was like this last season also - must be their normal weather.

There must be some decent commercial fishing in Juneau Harbor/Gastineau Channel.......................

Volie now off Port Snettisham Fjord; got a feeling this will be a late arrival

I saw more sunny days in the winter when I was checking the new dock construction. Too bad they can't have the warmer temperatures and sun at the same time.;)

She still has almost an hour and a half to be docked and cleared.

Stupid me keeps forgetting the one-hour time difference, thanks for waking me up! :o

It's easier for us on the east coast - just subtract 4 instead of 3.

I have trouble with Bermuda - short season and 1 hour ahead. I mess it up all the time.

Hey, only one drop left; wazzup with that?
