[MicCanberra]

Honkers is one place that I have only been to many times without seeing anything but the airport.

Well thanks to a super typhoon building we are leaving HK tonight at 8 pm and maybe heading straight to Tianjin. Grrrr

 

Bugger :(

Just found a webcam that over looks where the Sun Princess is docked in Hong Kong:

Looks very ominous.

[Kiwi Kruzer]

Wonder if they will get an extra day at another port?

[MicCanberra]

Perhaps, they will stay at Tianjin a bit longer instead.

Or maybe it will be a 74 day Pacific Circle cruise* :D

From one of the bloggers ...

 

"Our change of itinerary is now straight to Incheon, and we will be at sea for 3 days but ahead of the typhoon. Possibility of some turbulence but shouldn’t be too bad. From there it will be Beijing, on schedule. After that we are yet to find out, but, it looks like we will be missing Shanghai completely."

 

Cheers

It certainly looks like some rough weather ahead. Think the captain took the wise action by getting out of the path of the typhoon.

That is a shame but it no wonder when seeing that storm.

Thanks for the update, sounds like the captain is doing the best he can despite the bad weather.

[MicCanberra]

 

Glad they made it although the weather would be very wet for them, at least they will be on solid ground for a while.:D

They did not have much for a sail in, as they sailed in the darknesses of the night:

Even in the daylight, it is not much of a sail in.

It maybe looks like the Sun Princess might have spent two days in Tianjin, China:
