  1. I'd say you're right. First they have to contract with a dredger and then get all the equipment there. Could be a pretty extended project. And then you've got currents and changing conditions to deal with.
  2. The Chief addressed this earlier jn post 218: "The resumption of cruising, just like commercial shipping, will not depend on rebuilding the bridge, only on removing the debris from the shipping channel, not even the outer arches which are outside the channel. But, yes, it will take 2-4 months to accomplish that. " Somewhere along the way it was mentioned that commercial traffic will likely resume before passenger cruising. It does seem likely as well as logical, but I was surprised that when were on the Mississippi back in October and were significantly delayed by barge traffic, the captain told us that passenger traffic (at least right then) had priority and so we got to go while the tows waited. Perhaps that was a unique situation for a given day and time.
  3. That's why cruises on Enchantment, Grandeur, and now the Vision have been so popular over the years.
  4. Again, very well said. I was thinking to re-read. Seems an appropriate time. Take a break from the 600-page Dune novel I'm engrossed in!
  5. Oh my. I didn't recall this either! My memory is so crappy. Yes..hope all goes well.
  6. I recall you saying this back then! I have no doubt. Others on CC have wound up with the problem of upside down pics. Weird. Did it appear correct before you posted them?
  7. The two main groups of passengers - those who stayed onboard - and those who were air lifted, sure had quite different experiences to share. I have Chaney Kwak's book - most interesting. Often considered not keeping it but probably will for sentimental purposes.
