I watched the QM2 on the EPS CAM yesterday. The NYTimes had some great pictures online.

There are about 50 in our CC group going on the Dawn tomorrow. I'm sure one of us will be computer savy enough to post pictures when we return. [img]http://messages.cruisecritic.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_razz.gif[/img]

Should be the worst day ever. High security for the QM2. Lots of media. 3 big ships.

I would still love to be there [img]http://messages.cruisecritic.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif[/img]

It should be a real zoo. We just got back from just looking at her and the whole Westside is a mess. The backup begins 2 miles or more from the curise terminal. From NJ take the port imperial ferry and walk(no kidding) Leave the Car in the Port Imperial lot. I don't think it will matter when you get there it will be impossible.

PS we drove to NJ had some shopping to do anyway and had a great view from the Port Imperial parking lots....

PPS my wife is suggesting you get there before 9am as an alternative and you can watch everything.

Definitley not looking forward to the mad push at embarkation tomorrow.

I am planning on taking a lot of digital pics, and will take a bunch of the QE2 and QM2- I will FTP them up to my site when we return.

any body have a working cam that is on at the NY cruise terminal?

no luck both the north EPS and pied piper are off the air. The south cam on EPS is working so you will be able to pick them up as they depart if the weather holds.

Thanks for the link to the photo's tug - Great pictures! I was surprised at the size difference of the two ships

S/S Norway 1-01
S/S Norway 8-01
M/S Norwegian Sky 2-02
M/S Norwegian Sun 12-03
( Gee - can you guess which ships my son has worked on?! He was also on the Sea and is currently on the Dawn!)

Excellent photos.
Thank you

Okay, as promised, a few pics of both ships from our vantage point on the NCL Dawn. Theyre not great, but not bad for a cheapo 1.2 megapixel camera either!

Anyone going on the Mother's Day one night cruise, bring your cameras - there'll be another chance to get a glimpse of QM2.

Anyone know where she'll be in relation to the Dawn?

See you onboard! [img]http://messages.cruisecritic.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif[/img]
