Bon Voyage World Cruisers 2010 ( thats better )

[Kiwi Kruzer]

They have either arrived too early,

The Pilots busy and they have to wait

or

Captain is giving them a scenic cruise of Dublin Bay:confused:

and I thought I was going nuts ...... thinking something was playing up....

Or the weather is not right for them to go in or they are going to Anchor in the next bay along

[Gaznjo]

looks like she just her pilot... did you see the little blue ship up her tail LOL

[MMDown Under]

Just realised the connection!

 

Whilst I'm waiting for the Dawn to enter Dublin Harbour, I'm typing up "An Irish Blessing", as part of my International Report for the monthly Country Women's Association (QCWA) Meeting. Ireland is our country of study for this year.

 

(I'm going to use pure Irish Linen Teatowels on "An Irish Blessing", "Ireland's Treasures" and "Map of Ireland", which I bought on my first visit to Ireland and have used ever since.)

Dublin Bay is sheltered...

the seas look OK.

Its quite usual for a ship to have to wait for the pilot.

[Gaznjo]

have you noticed she is now going in the other direction again

[Kiwi Kruzer]

The plot thickens...

The light blue boat, under the word Liverpool is the pilot boat heading back,

meantime the Captain seems to be doing a figure 8 :D

 

 

[Gaznjo]

just when to schedule arrivals and they only show them from 7am now... she is still down as a schedule departure from ocean pier 33

[Gaznjo]

it is nearly like she is following her own co ordinates back out...

ha ha i am quilting a quilt for a customer with celtic designs on it LOL

...perhaps someone left their suitcase in Southampton ,

and they are going back for it?:D:D

 

from the AIS they appear to be a long way out and they cranked up the speed to 20 knots.

Would they do that if they where waiting to enter a port???

Dont think so!!!!!

[Gaznjo]

this is like de ja vue

 

on our first cruise we sailed up to lifou and the pilot came up to us .. then we turned around and left... New Caledonia official turned us away because of the swine flu... the pilot came out to us to pick some specimans up for testing...

 

their pilot when straight back to dock....

 

do do do do... do do do do..... ( suppose to be twight zone music...)

[Gaznjo]

20 knots in the opposite direction.... she is leaving i reakon!!

Women are good at multi tasking, so we don't feel guilty wasting time. What a coincidence working on a celtic design.

It looks like they might not be going to Dublin, Ireland now, their might be a few unhappy people on board!!, it will be interesting to see what the blogers say.

 

They now have a week at sea!

[MMDown Under]

I hope not!

 

What a disappointment to the passengers expecting a long day visit. Dublin of all places and I've just finished all their Irish Treasures in the National Museum and Trinity College!

 

Can't wait to read the latest blogs!

Hey whats the go, I went out and get home to find they have turned around. Now is this some kind of Irish joke. Maybe they got the days mixed up and have over booked the port.

[Gaznjo]

[MMDown Under]

I'm SO disappointed and I'm not even on the ship!

[Kiwi_cruiser]

DAWN PRINCESS at ShipWatcher

[Kiwi Kruzer]

Its official they are not going to Dublin, Ireland today :(

 

From what source did you obtain that information?

 

and if not going there ..Why?

[purpledragon]

The bridge cams are now reading heading to Boston

[Gaznjo]

We have just been informed by the captain of the ship that due to the strong winds, it is unsafe to take the Dawn Princess to the dock in Dublin. The ship has turned around close to Dublin and has set a new course for Boston USA. More detail when we find out what is happening.
