Yes, thats what I have too. Not seeing anything major yet.

that's what i'm seeing and nothing's moving, right?

[Ma Bell]

One of my favorite places!

[Smoke Fan]

how crazy are we? i just got a fit of the giggles, can't believe i'm doing this! too funny!:D :D :D

[marinearchit]

She's probably being pulled out of the slip now, we just can't see the slip.

 

All of the boats within the camera's view have moved out of the way, so she has to be coming!:D Also, the one crane has completely rotated, that has to be a good sign!

[Ma Bell]

Right

[hajekfam]

The crane moved to the side.

Hi Smoke Fan !

 

I know what you mean. I have Solstice on the brain. I think I need help :)

[Oh2Bcruisin]

The Crane Moved!

Yawn, how exciting.

Need coffee.

[marinearchit]

I've been saving stills of the cam so I can put together a stop-motion video later. By comparing the shots, the crane has moved a good number of times and there's lots of activity on the land around the crane.

Sorry, that was cruel . . . I considered photoshopping it into the meyerwerft shot - but thought that would be way too cruel.

 

Yay for Olympics!

[Shirley and Les]

I think you're right - if you look a couple of photos down where there is still work going on, the doors look closed. Also, it looks like there might be water when you compare what can be seen between the two photos.

Please post these photos. The only pictures that I can find on the shipbuilder's website that show the Solstice in the water are when there was only 1/2 of a superstructure.

Where are you finding these photos??? :confused:

Maybe we're all being punk'd??:confused:

Wish they were showing her back out of the slip. That was what I thought we would be seeing first then a cut to the current view.

I agree. They could have easily set up multiple cams. Celebrity could have done the same too. Oh well.... guess we should be happy with what they give us !

"worried...thinking my webcam connection froze"

 

Keep an eye on the 'Done' portion and see if it pops up with 'Downloading'. Which means the webcam is updating.

 

From the Google Earth site, my bet is the Solstice should come from the left side of the webcam pic into the harbor and dock near the moving crane. Just a guess. The Google Map shows the covered dock area to the East (left) of what we are looking at.

that 2nd glass of wine I had. I've got to hand it to you east coast gang . . .

 

I expect to see you in the disco on the next cruise!

[marinearchit]

I'm also thinking she'll be coming from the bottom left.

My best guess is she'll back out into the camera's view, we'll get to see her turn around, and finally dock.
