ms Maasdam in FLL and ms Eurodam and Nieuw Amsterdam in Juneau September 10, 2018

[Happily@Sea]

Eurodam entering Gastineau Channel - NA right behind. Are they going to put NA at Franklin??

[Krazy Kruizers]

Have to wonder where they will store them. Looks like there is something on the bow.

 

 

I noticed that as well -- reminds me of a lifeboat on the bow. Go to the end of the lifeboats hanging -- there is a spot that looks empty???

Is it possible.

Checking in to see Maasdam start her long voyage to pick us up in 12 weeks time.:)

12 weeks sounds closer than 3 months :D

Looking forward to seeing the sail away. I have friends who will be on board for 232 days.

Now that's what I call a cruise!:D:D:D

[Happily@Sea]

I see we lost our close-up on Maasdam. :(

[Scrapnana]

It is unusual to see nicer weather in Juneau than FLL.

Unfortunately. your weather is going to be miserable in a few days.

[Happily@Sea]

Loss of close-up didn't last long - thanks, FLL WP

[Krazy Kruizers]

It shouldn't be too much longer for the Eurodam. And just a little longer for the Nieuw Amsterdam.

Not looking forward to that!:(

Maybe they will store them in place of one lifeboat - they could probably stack about 10 zodiacs there, and get at them more easily - although how will they launch them? When we were on a ship with zodiacs, they had a winch deploy them off the aft deck, and we boarded from a platform at water level.

Exactly.

Kathi,

 

It is now 3 weeks since the puppies were born, they should be turning on the cameras any day - but no notice yet.

[Scrapnana]

Maasdam now showing 1730 departure.

[Krazy Kruizers]

Our weather has been crappy -- 6 inches of rain since Friday night and it is still raining. Many roads are closed, more land slides. All this from Gordon.

By the weekend we will be affected by Florence -- just what we don't need -- more rain.

Back yard is a swamp.

I checked the other day. Anxious to see those cuties in action.

Maasdam now listed for 1730 departure.

[Scrapnana]

Hard to tell with the sun but I think I see her.

[Happily@Sea]

Eurodam just on camera.

 

I'm going to miss Maasdam - unless she is much later.

[Krazy Kruizers]

Float planes are lining up.

Me, too. Maybe there will be a late plane with pax on board!;)

It looks like maybe two lifeboats are missing on the port side.

She has 3 days before her first port stop, she should be able to delay a small amount of time.
