Probably the ship already in port? that's why you don't see it? hope every tings goes well.
Normally they show the ships currently in port at the top. It finally showed up in the "Past 10 days" list - arrived the 11/10 and departed 11/11 as scheduled. Dealer says my wife's Clubman should be arriving around the 18th.
My MA called me today, to mention my Laser Blue should have been docked Friday (13th), in South Carolina. Something about the ship "Bosporous Highway"??? I cannot seem to locate this ship on any of the lists in this thread.
If my MA is correct, it should arrive here in Michigan some time next week . Of course, he also mentioned their low 2.9% financing on 2010 models! Imagine that.
Anyone here applying the clear bra protective covering? Just curious.
Hmm...
there is no update about the Grand Dahlia. I am not sure what happened to her. She is supposed to arrive at Panama Canal on 11/13 am. I am assuming she already through the Panama Canal and on the way to the port H, CA

I could be wrong, but a ship that looks like it very well could be the Tomar is taking its sweet time passing through the Gatun locks in the Panama Canal at this very moment. Image isn't clear enough for me to get a look at the ship's name yet but it certainly matches the pics of the Tomar, and this is approximately when it was supposed to be there, so...
Not that it effects me, way up here in Michigan - but, that first post/photo was blackness. Bummer.
But the second was very scenic. Your MINI's are enjoying quite the ride! Just like you will be, once they arrive. (tied that together quite nicely, don't you thing ).

Yes, very nice. The links are to the current camera images, not photos I took. Hence the blackness at 7:17 pm Panama time.
I did grab some pics after my original posting, though -- pics which convinced me it was indeed the Tomar I was watching. How's this?

At The Distribution Center! At The Distribution Center!
I just checked MINIUSA. My status was changed from "en route" to "at the distribution center" . How cool is that?!
VPM : for me, its been a little slow/boring lately - always seeing that "en route" post. HOWEVER, I am now starting to get just a little bit......JACKED!
Saturday.
Two A.M.
You WILL be there,....won't you?
What else have you got to do,.......sleep? Piffle. You and your wife will both be there, waving, sobbing, chuckling with glee. Do you have the Insurance papers for it? Fresh batteries in the camera? New shoes for that all important first ride?
