Default Is Ecstasy a little late?

I haven't seen the Ecstasy yet in Galveston. Does she normally pull in after 8:00 AM?

Have a great cruise JRock59!

Had a front come through yesterday with strong NW winds. That may be affecting her arrival.

We're at the Commadore and you can see her heading for the port. Wonder what the delay was?

The shipping fairway out in the Gulf is loaded with platforms. It is like a city at sea. If this area was fogged in last night it could have caused a substantial delay. I don't know that this happened but it is one possible explanation.

Default let us know

If anyone find out why the Ecstasy was so late arriving, let us know.

I wonder why are cruise ships so beautiful to some of us?

Once you get details, please pass them along. We won't be sailing for three months, but like to keep track of the ship and the goings-on...
