Noordam in Juneau on August 17, 2023

[leerathje]

My schedule says Jewel and Eclipse will be in Juneau.  Cruise Timetables says just the Eclipse.  Oh well.  Not to sure on the docks either, since there are only two ships in.  Lastly, I am out of all service (cell and internet) for the next few days.  If someone could dig deep for Thursday’s and Friday’s thread, I would be grateful.

 

ms Noordam will be at FKL dock from 8:00 am to 6:00 pm, and she is on a 7 day Glacier Discovery Southbound

 

 

 

Celebrity Eclipse at AS dock (7:30 am to 8:00 pm) and Norwegian Jewel at AJD dock, (2:00 pm to 9:00 pm),

Yes we will be there tomorrow - arriving from Skagway - the windiest place I have ever been in my life.

Looks like Eclipse and Noordam may be neck and neck.  Although Noordam is in the lead Eclipse is currently much faster and will likely be first in.  They are both about the level of Juneau working their way around Douglas Island.

I just saw that. Eclipse twice as fast as Noordam, no unblocked sail-in today.

Eclipse now in the lead.  Had I not gotten sick in January I should have been on the Noordam today.

Not sure how much I will see today.  Must leave in about a half hour for a vaccination.  Noordam should be making a wide sweep to turn around so there should be some visibility if the camera doesn't zoom on Eclipse.

And it will take her at least 20 minutes to come into view. Running a little later this week, she is usually in the basin by now.

[Cruise Suzy]

just in time - watching her in basin

With no ship anchoring, Noordam can make a wide swingaround to have her stern face the camera for docking.

Not too bad today. No panning, no raindrops of any kind - but we do have a view blocker taking up a goodly portion of the screen.

[rafinmd]

JUST back from the pharmacy.

That's all folks

[rafinmd]

And she's tucked away.  Have a great day in Juneau @RD64.  Thanks Leanne, Lou & Dave, Carole, and Suzy.

As she disappears from view - I hope the pax have a nice day, it has started as such.  Volendam tomorrow at the usual afternoon sail-in time.

 

Thanks to my fellow addicts and an extra thanks to Leanne for the thread.
