ms Noordam in Juneau August 18, 2022

[Scrapnana]

Noordam will be at the CT dock from 8am to 6pm.

 

On a very quiet Thursday, there are only two other cruise ships in port - Norwegian Jewel at the AJ dock (7am-1:15pm) and Celebrity Eclipse at the AS dock (7:30am-8pm).

 

The weather is going to be a tad better with only a 24% chance of rain and "considerable cloudiness". The high will be 66F/19C and the low 54F/12C.  Sunrise is at 5:27am and sunset at 8:35pm.

Next up:  Zuiderdam on Friday, 19 August.

Normal arrival for the 8 am AST - ETA is between 6-6:30 am AST. 

 

Last Thursday's early ship was just about 8 am AST, but only that once.

 

See you tomorrow  Thanks, Kathi.

[Happily@Sea]

Noordam will be early - she has already entered Gastineau Channel.

 

Unfortunately, the basin area is pea-soup fog - right now.

 

Noordam should be arriving at the top of the hour.

[Happily@Sea]

Sounds like Noordam's horn - through the fog.

[StLouisCruisers]

Geez!  That fog is really bad

[Happily@Sea]

Still pea-soup. I doubt we'll see anything.

[Happily@Sea]

Marine map shows her just outside the basin - and her horn is much louder now.

[leerathje]

Oh my....foggy as heck!

[Happily@Sea]

Noordam is in the basin - according to the map.

 

X Eclipse is in the Channel - we might be hearing her horn also, now.

[Happily@Sea]

There is Noordam - a dark shape in the fog. That's it. If I wasn't looking for her, I wouldn't have noticed her. 😞

[leerathje]

There she is!

 

L.

 

[Happily@Sea]

She is becoming a little more distinct. Just because she is closer to the cam.

[leerathje]

I *think* she's turning so we'll see her back end???  Gosh, so hard to tell!

 

L.

 

[leerathje]

Look!  A magic trick...she's gone!

 

L.

 

[Happily@Sea]

As she moves to the CT Dock - we lose her again into the fog. 

 

I just heard Eclipse's horn.

 

Since Noordam has disappeared back into the fog, I'll say goodbye until tomorrow afternoon with Zuidy.

I hope that fog clears away.

Eclipse is now clearly visible [right in front of camera] but the rest of the basin is still 'socked-in'.

 

This was 2 hours after you checked and is currently 9 am AST
