It does, It arrived yesterday and leaves December 1.

You have to go to the regular website to find her - the PE app doesn’t show her.

While we are waiting I have another question for you, Roy. When you combine 4 pictures on your blog, is that a function of Wordpress or is it something you do before you upload the pictures?

[Scrapnana]

The barge has passed but the zoom remains!

[lka1012]

Did they just say THREE hours?

[Scrapnana]

Koningsdam not leaving for three hours???

[Happily@Sea]

Is that the Koningsdam? 3 hours +???

[Scrapnana]

At least three hours maybe more.

[Happily@Sea]

Maybe that is why she needed 2 tugs this morning and was late.

[the2ofus]

3 hours puts sail-away after dark. Dang! I might not be home in time.

[Scrapnana]

Although they are pretty all lit up, an evening sail-away is not as fun to watch.:(

 

I’ll be back after dinner.

Pevvesseltraffic now shows Koningsdam "scheduled" for 22:22. Certainly an odd prediction.

I thought so too. Maybe it is code for, “She is going to leave sometime but we really have no idea when.”;)

I am happy she is leaving late. I am on the ferry back to the island, and the wifi is not good. I can't get on to any of the webcams.

 

I'll have a look when I get home in a couple of hours. Can you see the World?

Kathi, I wish it were that easy, but by now I have it pretty much down to a science. I load them to wordpress just as a regular photo. Getting to that photo is fairly involved.

1. I start by choosing the 4 photos.

2. The Windows photo printing routine for multiple photos has several options One of the options is to "print" a sheet of 4 photos. I choose that option--

 

3. And print to a pdf file. There are a couple of print to pdf utilities, one is in Windows 10 but I usually use a routine from a utility called "pdf995" which does several things.

4. Another utility from the same company is called "omniformat" which converts the pdf file to a jpg format. Usually the jpg is bigger than I want but image resizer fixes that.

5. Finally, I upload the file I created to wordpress just like a regular photo.

No, camera is focussed on K'dam.

That is a really strange time.

 

I wonder if there is a plane full of passengers with flight ease bookings that are late?

You will likely be able to see it anytime in daylight tomorrow. Port schedule shows her departing at 23:00 December 1.

 

I was quite amused yesterday. We had the Celebrity Reflection where Allure usually docks, the World opposite her, and the Crystal Serenity stuck in between (terminal 19?), making an interesting progression from little to bigger to huge.

Nice zoom of the Koningsdam.

Jacqui, when we were told it was going to be at least 3 hours, it was also stated everyone was on board but were requesting to leave both jetways connected in case of emergency.

Thought I was going to miss the sail away.

Wow! That’s a lot of work. I will never look at your blog pictures the same way again. It does look interesting so I will probably try it (but at home where Wi-Fi cost and speed are not an issue).

Thanks Carole.
