ms Zaandam in Juneau September 6, 2017

Zaandam will be at the CT dock from 1000-2200.

Also in port are Star Princess at the FKL dock (0630-1600) and Emerald Princess at the AS dock (1430-2315).

Tuesdays weather was an anomaly and we are back to normal on Wednesday. Yes, there is a 100% chance of rain in the afternoon and evening although the morning is supposed to be just cloudy. The high will be 65F/18C and the low 50F/10C. Sunrise is as 6:06 am and sunset at 7:44 pm.

Thank you for the reminder.

Sadly I won't be here as I have another doctor's appointment at 1.

Thanks Scrapnana for the report!

I will be there to watch.

Denise :)

Thank you for posting!

I plan to be there.

Zaandam passing Grand Island. Looks like a decent day.

Past Thane on a very quiet sail-in. Carole, I hope you're not suddenly finding a need to think about storm preparations.

It looks like she might go east of us. We have the evacuees from So Fla in our college town hotels.

If she does hit us, she will have travelled up most of the state and that should help.

Mighty pretty ship. I'm taking her from FLL to SEA in April [after drydock]. i figured this might be my one chance to cruise with her.

And a close-up. Yah! webcam person.

And a Zoom. If Irma has to come up a long stretch of land she will weaken a LOT.

That's why we are the evacuation spot in No Fla, Plenty of hotel rooms and a very weaken storm if she does hit. Plus we open extra shelters as long as people need them.

Going port side to, I guess. Don't usually get much docking zoom from CD and it seems to be harder to see when aft is showing.

After Prinsendam, Zaandam is probably my next favorite HAL ship.

Roy

Not a bad day, eh?

Forward port side just above sea level it looks like an open door with something hanging out and into the water....rope or chain?

THIS is what I want next July 20 and August 2.

Hope you get it.

I'm going to leave the webcam up for a while, see if the nice weather stays.

Guess that's it for today. One thing I know is if it's Zaandam Wednesdam then it will be Noordam Thursday.

Thanks Kathi, Lou & Dave, and fellow addicts. Carole, and anyone else potentially close to Irma's path, stay safe.

Roy

and special thanks today to the webcam person for some awesome close-ups coming into the harbor (y)
