Happily@Sea

And out into the open.

I had a 5-day cruise on that smaller RCI ship at AJ - Brilliance otSeas - out of Tampa - never again - it was non-stop announcements.

Good timing - there is Noordam.

About the size of the ship Alias Chief is cruising.

Silver Shadow entering the harbor. Noordam about even with Thane.

Right now - cloudy but dry - 39F

Noordam approaching Thane.

Noordam just north of Tracy Arm. At least another hour and a half to Juneau. [BTW - NA coming south toward Grand Island - first time I've ever seen a BHB coming south through that passage. She was in Juneau this past Monday. Westy is outside Tracy Arm - and unless the map is faulty - we have 3 BHBs in the passage outside Tracy Arm and only one is headed for Juneau. Really weird.]

As Westy disappears behind Summit - Noordam tomorrow. 10 am AST/2 pm EDT - they have been showing up between 1 1/2 to 1 hour early. Making it soon after noon EDT - but this is a new season - we'll see. Thanks to my fellow addicts and our cameraperson. Thanks, Leanne for the thread.

That sky is ugly now.

She is moving - verrrrry slowly.

A BHB is here - time to open the skies. 😞

I've never been to Alaska - but from what I've seen on here - not often. And not lately - last few years.] @leerathje

Now her bow.

There she is.

Not much of a viewing opportunity until she gets around Bliss.

Yup! - Outstanding.

It's been moved around before - as I speak. LOL

We do have a cameraperson on duty right now.

Passing Thane - shouldn't be long now.

Approaching Thane.

Westy halfway between Grand Island and Gastineau Channel - about an hour until Juneau.

Westy is 10+ hours stale on marine tracker. X Summit is already parked at her blocking pier AS, so probably won't see much. We'll see. I'll be back later looking for a location update.

Westy tomorrow regular afternoon time - like today. Thanks all, it was a very long sail-in day. Some very good camera work Edge has camera now.

I was trying to figure out if that was what that did. Sounds reasonable.
