Caribbean Princess web cam.

A couple of weeks ago I remarked on the time differences
on the Carribbean Princess bridge cam. 8:26 in Ottawa and
Grand Cayman, and 12:06 GMT.

How can it be that it was only 6 minutes past the hour
in Grand Cayman and 26 minutes past the hour in the
Eastern Time Zone?

I note today that the bridge cam clock has now been corrected,
and it shows the same time after the hour in both time zones.

I think you missing the point that the time stamp shows when
the particular image was captured. If the ship is docking
or manuvering, the satellite link can be lost until the antenna is able
to reacquire the satellite's position. If the link is lost, the images are
not updated the old image remains, and the timestamp remains.
It is not a matter of the clock being set wrong. The time correctly
indicates when the image was captured.
