At least we have each other! Heaven knows I'm just getting crazy looks from my coworkers.

And now, as the time approaches for me to hit the road for the evening, if things progress the way they appear to be, I'm going to be relying on you all to continue to post photos. I've got another 1 1/2 hours next to a computer then I'll be away from it until 10pm. ARRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHHH

 

hmmmm have you guys noticed that in http://www.boydsteamship.com/daily_traffic_report.htm
in the "booked" column it says AM/2/Feb? hmmmm will it mean it won't cross today?

 

If we are all this crazy now, imagine what it will be like following Isolde into port.
I still wish they would offer videos of our cars being loaded and the voyage over and then to the VDC. They could make a mint from us. Who wouldn't want a copy of that?

Feel kind of sad for those whose MINIs are done and still waiting in Southampton. We've al lbeen through it, but it's a horrible ache knowing your MINI is out there being exposed to salt air.

Thank God we are almost there on this journey.

 

I really need to stop looking at the web cam. It almost as if I'm willing the Isolde to appear even though I know it won't until tomorrow...

 

I have been trying to locate a web cam for the pier Isolde is docked at there in Coco Solo but I haven't found any yet. Anyone else with any luck?

 

I'm with you Hopefully we can take the picture tomorrow!

 

So... am I the only idiot up at 6am checking the web cams at the Gatun locks?

6:20 am and two medium size container ship in the locks right now. Some ships in the background leading in look like containers as well.

 

Doesn't that look like a green ship behind the one approaching at Gatun.
Need to take my shower, but can't leave this.:impatient

 

I think that's the ISolde on the horizon. Look at how large that ship is sideways, and it is white on top.

 

The green ship that is almost to the south lock right now? I just compared it to a photo - I don't think it is.

 

The Isolde doesn't have much of a superstructure - should be easy to spot compared to many of the ships going through.

 

According to ist position in AIS it should not be ISOLDE, at least not yet i guess

 

Darn, I wish I had copied the schedule to see what number that cruise ship in the Milalores lock was. It was the Symphony.
Now I can't see that large white ship that was on the horizon.
Took my shower, better feed the dogs and come back in here.
I wonder what time I'll leave to open my shop. Who cares? No one comes there anyway. This is more important.

 

and by the way.... no you are not!

 

ISOLDE was #5

 

I know, but I wondered what number Symphony was to see how far ahead she was of the Isolde.

 

That sure looks like the right color combo coming in.

 

That is her. YAY!That has to be ISOLDE!!!

 

Yes, definitelly it looks like!!!!!!!!!!

 

God,this gives me chills. Can't imagine what will happen when we finally see our cars!!

 

You mean the green and white ship waiting to enter the Gatun locks as of 10:50 am?

 

Yes that one exactly!

 

I got a good first shot of her. Also, to show the delay, I grabbed a curent AIS shot. The Hanjin ship, way outside the locks, is the one we see in the other pic with Isolde.

 

OMG I'm so excited. I was in bed checking my blackberry because the wireless wasn't working. I saw everyone's posts and ran upstairs to use my in-laws computer!! So here I am sitting at their computer taking pictures on their computer and emailing them to myself. LOL

 

Good thing we're not obsessed about this... :impatient
