If you are bored....
A gentleman named Steve turned me on to a series of websites which
show webcams for Port Everglades, Miami, and Canaveral. They are fascinating, especially Everglades, which actually services Fort Lauderdale. It is unbelievable that on both Saturday and Sunday the port moves about 14 ships which means around 50,000 passengers a day when you consider that Allure and Oasis of the Seas carry over 6,000 each, both in and out. If anyone cares, QE2 will be making a call tomorrow and Queen Victoria on Monday. FWIW, the website is: www.portevergladeswebcam.com A word of warning....there is ambient sound and because the cameras shoot the ships as they leave, watch out for the ships saluting the port as they depart.

DG One more thing. I forgot to add that there are also 7 ships today in Miami, and to compound the issue it is pouring rain. DG |

Not always fun. And oh, BTW, apparently I have been away from cruising and cruise ships too long. I never realized that there was no longer a QE2. The ship that just arrived at Port Lauderdale is the Queen Elizabeth. |

Oh boy! I always wanted to be a gentleman! Watch at around 5 PM on Saturday, the 16th. My wife and I will be on Oasis. We plan to be wearing matching chartreuse/yellow shirts and we MAY be waving red balloons. We haven't decided exactly where we will be standing. Our cabin is on the other side so it won't be on one of the balconies.
