kerrytens Posted January 9, 2011 #101 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Here is a Peregrine Falcon that was with the Dawn for the whole 2 week voyage. It was one of a group of 5 or 6 that live somewhere on the ship. PE OMG, really? That is just the coolest thing to me. I'd love to see any bird of prey on a cruise ship even from a distance, let alone this close (sdmike, that includes you and your osprey too). Love this thread!

Nyc2tropics Posted January 9, 2011 Author #102 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Maho Beach, St. Martin and Segway tour Nassau Maho has to be one of the best beaches in the Caribbean. Me and my gf had a blast there with the planes coming in. I'm surprised the cruiselines don't have an excursion to this beach. ( At least Rccl didn't when I went ). I always tell everyone I know to go Maho when their cruising to St Maartin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sunshine 229 Posted January 13, 2011 #116 Share Posted January 13, 2011 Love your picture of the ship coming out of the fog, gooch47. I checked out some of your other pictures too...very nice. Here's one from my latest cruise, taken early in the morning as we came back into port: Sydney Opera House with sun rising over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm surprised the cruiselines don't have an excursion to this beach. ( At least Rccl didn't when I went ). I always tell everyone I know to go Maho when their cruising to St Maartin. I watched a special on TV on the 10 most dangerous airports in the world. I don't remember which number it was, but the one next to Maho was one of them because of the close location to the beach. People hang onto the fence there and if they are light enough, the blast from the jets lift them off their feet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TPEINC1958 Posted January 13, 2011 #120 Share Posted January 13, 2011 Fake or a really bad pilot! Nope, real and he cleared the fence by about 3 feet. Go to Google images and enter "Maho Beach Airplanes". You can do the same thing on Google videos. I have seen it first hand a few times, although I would never think of hanging on the fence in the planes jet wash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gooch47 Posted January 13, 2011 #121 Share Posted January 13, 2011 Yep. Most likely a real photo. That was what they were showing on the special. Videos, not possibly photoshopped photos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyc2tropics Posted January 13, 2011 Author #122 Share Posted January 13, 2011 Fake or a really bad pilot! That picture is definitely real. Ive been there and the planes come in so close it's scary you feel like you can reach up and touch them. If your ever in St Martin go there it really is fun the pilots even opened the cockpit window and waved at everyone on the beach before takeoff.

Have any more? Or maybe some tips on Bermuda? It's my first time on NCL and my DH's first time cruising! :D If you click on my webshots album below, there are a lot of Bermuda pics. The Majesty albums, the Grandeur/Norfolk albums, and the Dawn AE from October 2009. There are a lot of them, but they're all on the first page. Have a great time and honeymoon!
