mariner Posted July 13, 2013 #1 Share Posted July 13, 2013 FLL is demolishing the power plant smokestacks on 7/16. It will be carried on the FLL webcam. I'll miss seeing them. I'm sure the airline pilots won't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sail7seas Posted July 13, 2013 #2 Share Posted July 13, 2013 Say it isn't so!!!!! They are part of the landscape. I always look for them from our hotel balcony at Pier 66..... I'll miss 'em. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare kazu Posted July 13, 2013 #3 Share Posted July 13, 2013 Thanks - instead of a sail a way thread - there may be a smoke stacks coming down thread:D It will make some interesting watching and for those who are nostalgic - their last look!

mariner Posted July 13, 2013 Author #9 Share Posted July 13, 2013 At that hour, one of the networks might carry it via replay. Usually don't do demos in the middle of the day. Too disruptive to traffic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Essiesmom Posted July 13, 2013 #10 Share Posted July 13, 2013 That's a Tuesday, no cruise ships in port that day. EM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sail7seas Posted July 13, 2013 #11 Share Posted July 13, 2013 Almost no ships in Port Everglades for the summer. Allure and Oasis on Saturday and Sunday. One Carnival ship and maybe one or two others. We spent 8 or 9 days in FLL last August and saw almost no ships the whole time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sapper1 Posted July 13, 2013 #12 Share Posted July 13, 2013 Seriously? I saw it advertised on the webcam website last week and that was the time given. It is 7:45 Atlantic time so that will be easier here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krazy Kruizers Posted July 13, 2013 #13 Share Posted July 13, 2013 If I am not on the road taking DH to doctor appointments, I am usually here at that time. Will have to take note of the date. Thanks for the information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jumbiecruiser Posted July 13, 2013 #16 Share Posted July 13, 2013 They are replacing with new smokestacks that will be shorter once the new power plant is completed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RuthC Posted July 13, 2013 #23 Share Posted July 13, 2013 Way too early for me on Pacific Daylight Time, especially since it is my birthday. I plan a nice sleep in.:) Way too early for some of us on Eastern time, too. I have managed to forget there's a 6:45 in the morning, and I don't care to relearn about it. ;) Happy birthday. Sleep well that morning. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
