In a bit of a switch Eurodam is already leading the Nieuw Amsterdam.

No chance of cheering this week as NA gets passed??

I will be here to see the sisters - early?

Not a very pretty morning in Juneau.:(

Conditions still deteriorating in Juneau. St. Peter on the way to meet Nieuw Amsterdam.

Nieuw Amsterdam bridge wing looks squarer than I expected. May I try your knowledge on a question that's come up on my roll call. How familiar are you with Astoria? Someone was asking how far it is from the dock to the waterfront trolley?

Thanks

Been there only once on Statendam in 2013, I believe.

Commercial dock with a lot of lumber around it

Perhaps this helps:

Doesn't look to bad at least it's still dry.

Eurodam nearing the Gastineau Channel.

When I left for the pool NA was right behind Eurodam. Now Solstice is in between them with NA a good distance behind. Did anybody see when this happened?

Looks like Solstice waved off Endicott Arm today.

Rendezvous of St. Peter and Nieuw Amsterdam was very late today.

Copper, your link had the answer I was looking for. Thanks

Thanks for the answers!

But NA always slows to meet Allen Marine at that point. Perhaps the difference is that she was well behind Eurodam right from early morning when she usually starts out in front. NA moving quite smartly now. Perhaps she was delayed by traffic in the Inside Passage.

Eurodam passing Thane. I guess today I'll have time to go home between Eurodam and NA.

We may need a webcam wiggle. Why does it have to start raining just when a 'dam ship is arriving???:(

Wonder what the helicopter is doing.

Wonder what the helicopter is doing.

Your guess is as good as mine ;) Could have been a military helo; sounded heavier than the A-Stars used for flight seeing

NA slowed to meet with the St. Peter for the Tracy Arm excursion.

You're getting into this webcam arrival stuff, huh? ;)

Kathi, you know the answer to that question. :mad:

Wind's blowing again in Juneau :cool:
