Krazy Kruizers Posted July 11, 2019 #29 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Can't stay -- our third round of bad storms for today are getting very close. Many roads are still closed due to flooding -- one of them includes the road at the bottom of our hill. Another one close to us has required the animals to be removed from the no-kill shelter. A few areas have declared themselves to be disaster areas to get help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare rafinmd Posted July 11, 2019 #38 Share Posted July 11, 2019 BTW, that ugly black band around the stern of the Eclipse is (on the port side at least) is the tinted windows of BLU restaurant. It's been like that forever but we really see it when she's stern to the camera at the AS dock. Roy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would anyone even build/design an ugly ship? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Copper10-8 Posted July 11, 2019 #41 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Awright; quick one: the current Amsterdam and her older sister Rotterdam, both part of the four-ship "R"-class, are co-flag ships of the line.
