Live from Anthem - circumnavigation of Upper New York Bay

[hallasm]

September 22, 2016 when Anthem of the Seas were leaving Cape Liberty Captain Henrik Loft Sørensen got permission to circumnavigation of Upper New York Bay where she was passing the Statue of Liberty and New York Skyline before passing the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge on her way for a 9 nights Canada and New England Cruise.

Fantastic video, thank you for sharing. I wish they could do this all the time.

Thanks for the video. The Captain has been doing this on the NE/Canada itineraries. He didn't do it on our Bermuda cruise, but we were already pushing away as muster was finishing since we were trying to avoid Hermine.

We did that on Summit in July. Summit has been doing it on most departures for a year. There are instances where it's not allowed, but Summit does it most of the time.

 

I had taken some great pictures of the statue and NCL Breakaway passing by as well as a NY Fireboat with water spraying, but I dont' have any of them. I left my camera (DSLR) on the Newark Penn train station platform on our return so those photos are lost forever. Someone now owns my stolen camera, sigh. It was never turned in and I had around 300 pictures from our Bermuda cruise including probably 25 great shots of the statue.

I do have a cam corder with SDHC memory card. Insert the card into the PC and use Microsoft Movie Maker for editing - and then a wifi connection to upload to youtube.

Enjoy your Anthem Cruise.

Would you mind taking a picture of the drink menus? We are on the Anthem next month and I can't make up my mind whether or not to buy a drink package!!! I keep reading how outrageous the drink prices are.....

thank you!

Periscope is an app that allows you to live stream videos. People can post live questions to you that scroll across the screen. There are a bunch of posters that have added periscopes to their live reviews.

Too bad about your camera. I would be devastated. Here is one from the Summit last August.

Does the captain announce before sail away that he is going north into the harbor? (so that I can plan to be on port instead of starboard side of the solarium, depending on the view)

Yes. The captain did announce it well in advance. Crowded at the upper deck, but also a good view from the balconies. Both sides since the ship is turning around.
