Thanks Scrapnana!!

Won't be able to be here for sail away.

Everyone enjoy Labor Day!

Denise:)

Hope to be here for the sail in.

Thank you for the reminder.

Plan to be here. Hope the sisters have a picturesque arrival. [That I can enjoy.]

I watched Explorer OTS arrive yesterday (nice weather on a Sunday, of course). Still dark in Juneau (520am) but there appear to be raindrops reflections in the camera.

NA passing behind Sitka/Kake with Eurodam a bit behind.

Rendezvous between St. Phillip and NA right about now; Eurodam on the verge of taking the lead.

Still HAL 2017 Juneau weather. It was nice when I was on Statendam 2014 so hope 2018 will do as well.

Roy

Ruby Princess in channel, raindrops all over the viewing area. Eurodam definitely in the lead now.

Roy, you mean Juneau 2016 & 2017 weather. :(

I hope bad luck doesn't come in 3's.

Eurodam entering the channel, NA not far behind, but going about 1k slower.

OFF-TOPIC - no puppies today, camera is on the fritz. <|3

Camera fixed!!

Eurodam passed Thane - should be coming into view - shortly.

There she is - barely visible between the raindrops.

Almost like a ghost ship.

Howcum it's taken me this long to discover that there is a sailaway (or sail-in) thread for Juneau as well as Ft Lauderdale?

That wind is really howling today. So it's rain and wind. :(

I guess we kind of know what we think is coming and go on a sort of auto pilot. Maybe we also think about sailaway and not sail-in.

Roy

Raindrop cleared out a bunch of others. Yah!!

We have Maasdam visiting FLL Wed Sep 13 on her way from NE and Canada to So Pac. Only appears to be a port call, no listing that I've seen for boarding there.

Plus we got a ZOOM!

cruisetimetables shows a Panama Canal cruise to San Diego. Were you looking on the HAL site. It may not be listed there because it's sold out.

Hmm, these new docks in Juneau this year have me slightly disoriented. In previous years we've always docked right in front of the library. But I actually skipped Alaska this year, so haven't experienced the new docks personally.

From SD [sep 25] she goes to Hawai`i and then to the So Pac. SD seems to be a supply port - mostly. And of course not everyone can stay on board that long.

Looks to me the one closest to the library is the CT dock where the Nieuw Amsterdam will be going.

A number of people on my Grand Asia roll call are sailing the Maasdam to Sydney, spending some time in Australia and then taking the Amsterdam back to the US.
