What a great image of the European ocean swell forecast.

 

Enjoyed the video, but didn't notice, Joanne. I wasn't aware that there had been a tandem crossing. Noticed there is another next January, which would be a unique experience.

 

When is the Dawn due to arrive in Dublin our time?

When is the Dawn due to arrive in Dublin our time?

 

they are due dublin time at 5.30 our time 2.30 I always start checking between 1 - 1.30 hours before... as you know there is sometimes lots to see on the way into the harbour....

 

I will go and sus out some web cams... I found a group yesterday that are set up out the front of b & b's and pubs etc....

 

they have a long day in port, not due to leave till around 10 - 11 pm.... if we are clever enough to remember we can wake up to sail away as it is 11pm now

Dublin is Ireland's most popular port for cruise liners. In 2008 a total of 82 cruise vessels visited Dublin. Smaller liners can come up the River Liffey close to the city centre while the larger vessels berth in Alexandra Quay

this one could be the same cam just on different site trouble is it refreshes every 5 seconds so it blinks alot

I note from bridgecam, the seas are a little choppy, makes for a little more room in the buffet ! A few Guinnesses in Dublin will help them recover from any sea sickness ! LOL.

 

I hope a few of the pax get to visit the Guinness Brewery at St James Gate, as I did last year when we called into Dublin on Crown Princess. The brewery was shown on SBS Thursday night, the travelling road show with those two poms.

packetau, geez I envy you guys doing the DP world cruise next year, after reading the blogs on this one, it will be magnificent. I have a friend on your one next year, Lady Geraldine, yes Lady Geraldine.

 

RE DP's berth in Dublin, it would be Alexandra Quay I believe, where Crown tied up last year. The bigger ships don't come up the Liffey.

[Gaznjo]

[Gaznjo]
