LEtue Posted February 24, 2015 #252 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Can we assume that passenger ships take priority over cargo ships - when the port opens? Just wondering who will go first and does traffic entering the port go before ships leaving? If this was an airport outbound waits for inbound - right?

forecastle Posted February 24, 2015 #253 Share Posted February 24, 2015 A couple years back think it was CCL Inspiration we couldn't get back into Tampa for two days, because of a Hurricane. They said they won't do any wash, towels etc water low, and save milk which was low just for children. Anyway they took us to East coast.Port Everglades and bused us back like 20+buses.On the way back driver stopped for a rest stop, you couldn't get into any places Lucky we had some people who lived in Tampa as drive didn't know how to find Port Of Tampa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T2B2 Posted February 24, 2015 #255 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Latest update from the ship: We have been given clearance to the top of the channel. Pilot will board us there and then we will make a decision on what the next step is from there. Port is still closed but we are getting closer. We have priority to enter over other waiting ships.

Reader0108598 Posted February 24, 2015 #256 Share Posted February 24, 2015 I just heard on the radio on the webcam that Brilliance of the Seas is preparing to take on pilot. However, they also said that the port is still closed in all zones. Heard the same thing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRQfireman Posted February 24, 2015 #259 Share Posted February 24, 2015 (edited) Here's another logistical thing that I can't remember seeing in this thread......Normally the last night you put 90% of your belongings outside your door........I trust this occurred here as well. I'm guessing nobody has 90% of their stuff unless they were the ones who were going to schlepp all their stuff off themselves..... Soooooo.......did they allow people to get their stuff back? (including any meds in their suitcases.....which shouldn't be in there anyhow !) Edited February 24, 2015 by SRQfireman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smiley4 Posted February 24, 2015 #262 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Does anyone know when this situation would reach critical status? Meaning either they're running out of fuel or running out of food to maintain the ship or passengers? Or what if a passenger didn't pack enough extra meds, oxygen etc?I wonder how much extra of both they typically supply such a short cruise with. They're 30 hours over schedule right now.

DreamingBig1 Posted February 24, 2015 #263 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Now if we could just manage to keep him there until after the Michigan - Ohio game :D Just kidding of course. He is a class act! GO BLUE!!!! Touche' lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreamingBig1 Posted February 24, 2015 #264 Share Posted February 24, 2015 I was going to say: I just emailed Jim Harbaugh and told him to sweep in while he can! ;) Lol!!! Go bucks.

More importantly, however, thank you so much for sharing the last 2 days with all of us. This has been so informative and interesting and I really appreciate it!

Smiley4 Posted February 24, 2015 #270 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Bluegirlum, Just think, 9 more touchdowns and Wisconsin would have beaten Ohio State in the big 10 championship game. As a Wisconsin resident, you almost had them lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now we are getting more info from you than from Royal....:confused: Thank you so much!!!!! Glad I can help. Didn't plan on it and promised to unplug while away. It wasn't until they turned on the WiFi for all this became possible. We stopped moving again and I don't know why, but hopefully we are at the point we just need to hold for the pilot to arrive.

paton Posted February 24, 2015 #274 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Drove across the Skyway Bridge yesterday it was crazy. Coming from Bradenton to Tampa around 3 pm water was calm as glass but you could not see the top of bridge at all. Coming back from Tampa to Bradenton around 6 pm was worse when at top of bridge could barely see the car in front of you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you need a little more than Harbaugh to turn the tide so to speak. You mean we need some sort of crazy thing to happen, like Urban Meyer getting stuck on a cruise ship at sea????? I'm feeling pretty good about things. :) I'm actually a Michigan and a UW alum, so the past few years have not been the greatest. I am glad that OSU won the national championship because I was sick of all the SEC talk. As for the Big 10 championship game, it was clear that UW's coach was already checked out and on the way to Oregon State. Whatever. OSU is a great team. That's why it will be that much sweeter when we start beating you again. :) Edited February 24, 2015 by bluegirlum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
