Try this and/or this and report back. When I tried earlier this morning, I couldn't find it, but it may have popped up now.

AIS shows it in Port----it arrived last night.

 

Is there a port cam there?

 

I couldn't find one...anyone else?

 

...and I wasn't able to get off to see her in 'cause I'm saving the day off to pick her up! I think I should be able to use paternaty leave, right?

I saw the Fidelio off of San Diego yesterday at 5ishpm, couln't find her today

 

this shows a ship in port right now (if you can't see it, check my gallery (It's the only picture there)

[SIZE=-1]That picture is the Fidelio and it appears to be leaving the port! So our MINIs are back on dry ground![/SIZE]

 

Leaving the port.....as in they've all been unloaded?!?!??

 

Sorry guys we have surgery cases today. My boss has sons who surf there. I'll find out tomorrow if they were there today. Marg the charge for install is cheaper at the VDC. The MA said driving light install is $500 at the dealer and $100 less at the VDC. Any add on last minute stuff has to be arranged 1 week before it hits the VDC.
Where is my car?

 

The WW site says departure from CA on 11/27???

I wasn't able to catch it on the AIS site and the vessel tracker site says unavailable

I am not going to look again until tomorrow...talk about obsessive I hope by tomorrow my car will at least be at the VDC

I just want my car have been without for a week (sold my 03 a week ago)

You CA people are lucky after the VDC mine has to be transported to Colorado

 

When I checked back, it showed a directional adjustment of the ship from my first view, so I thought that meant that it was heading out to sea, but alas, it's still there as of 3:18pm. I heard through the grapevine that they are having problems with some unruley Pepper White MINIs who don't want to leave the buffet line!

 

Tell them to get their dessert and clear the decks. The BRG MINIs want to go home!

 

I know, I know, we're all chompin' at the bit to get our MINI's through the VDC right quick--especially the BRGs!

For your reading pleasure, I have put together a "inside the VDC" website list:

Number 1
Number 2
Number 3
And how about this story!

Enjoy.

 

Hey, now... Pepper Whites are the most dignified of MINIs! I can't imagine any of them becoming unruly!!

 

Has anyone seen discharged when looking at the status of their car on the WW site?
Has anyone's owners lounge changed from enroute to at VDC either?

The WW site indicates that the Fidelio has left CA. Yeah-hopefully only after taking our cars off though


Sorry but I am antsy too about getting my car.
And I am sure my pepper white did not hold up progress

 

Yes my "mellow yellow" shows as dischaged at about 2:00am this morning. But, no change yet on the Mini website.

 

I just checked the WW site and it looks like all the MINI's were discharged at 2:18am this morning. It must have been a mad dash off the ship for all 277 MINIs!

The OL still shows "En route."

 

Wolf---Dan at Rasmussen gave me an ETA for delivery to me of December 10. Have you heard anything from your MA?

 

that it normally takes 7-10 days to get to the dealer after they arrive at the VDC He was hoping Sunday.

 

I, sob sob, was hoping Thursday...

 

When I asked on 11/16, I was told to expect it somewhere around 12/15. Your new ETA is probably more accurate, but I like to be even more optimistic!--Let's start thinking 12/7!

 

Yep---I'm blocking my calendar out for the 7th and crossing my fingers.
