Looks like the web cam is on auto pan, no zoom.

I don't like the new dock(s) in Juneau.  I used to love it when we'd berth RIGHT NEXT to the library so I could just run over there to pick up email, then put the laptop back on the ship and didn't have to lug it around with me all day.

I don't think the dock placement is that different but they enlarged the dock next to the library so bigger ships can go there and HAL doesn't get it as much.  I know the crews like it because they don't need to keep moving the gangway with the tide.

You are correct, of course.  Anyway I'm outta here.  With just the panning and no zoom, this just a waste of time.  Have a great cruise.

Chuggin' up the Gastineau at a pretty good clip, nearly abeam Thane.  I'm here today (and not lurking, for a change) because I don't believe that I've ever actually seen Volendam and I'll be on her for the first time next month.

Have a wonderful cruise.  Have a great weekend everybody and lets hope for better on Monday.

I have been away from home today and so I missed the Sail In.  I am usually away on Friday with the quiet.  Iit means it will be nice in. to be in Juneau today as it will be relatively quiet.  Skagway will also be quiet tomorrow.

Webcam is still panning as St. Nicholas approaches Volendam returning passengers from Tracy Arm.  A tiny speck.
