Luke and Betty board the Voyager today, I will try and get a view of them from this streaming Copenhagen cam. The cam alternates between a warehouse rooftop, a parking lot and the harbor.

All I get is the construction site, which, without hunky construction workers, is fairly dull...

R

Robert, they don't seem to alternate the cams in any sort of pattern. You just gotta catch the ship whenever they switch to it. :)

Editing to add, the ship is leaving soon so we might have to wait til the next port. :(

Greetings from the Voyager! About to go to dinner at the Compass Rose, but wanted to check in from club.com.

The sun arrived in Copenhagen today along with the Voyager! In fact, it was rather warm as we sailed away almost 2 hours ago.

Wonderful rendezvous at the "SOFA IN THE SOFO" with Betty, Priscilla and John, Ed and Laura, Jim and Pamela, and a score of new friends. Everyone arrived on time and, I think, with all of their luggage. The chamapgne is flowing and so are the stories and the laughter.

I am working on a detailed "log" of our experience and hope to post later tonight. The constant smile on my face results from the myriad of delights, ranging from meeting LCT "names," being with our family, magnificent itineary, splendid ship, and fantastic crew. However, the item that has brought me to the verge of tears is the pure JOY my parents have experienced in their now 2-hour cruise career. Their smiles and string of superlatives confirm the wonder of this sailing.

I will work with Voyager staff to post some photos this week. We are at sea tomorrow, so you are relegated to statellite stalking until we arrive in Trondheim Sunday a.m.

Until then ...

Peace.

Luke-

Thanks for the update.....sounds GREAT! Glad your parents are enjoying their first cruise experience!

Great, Luke!! Thanks for posting. So glad the folks are groovin'. Enjoy!

Luke:

How wonderful to introduce your parents to cruising...and to the cream of the crop, RSSC. It must be fun to share in their discoveries!

Thanks for posting, we look forward to stalking and hearing from you!

Luke, how nice to hear from you! I loved that part about your parents. Although she is already there, my mom would have been "in heaven" experiencing cruising for the first time. When she was living, I had not yet found Radisson. What a match they would have been. Enjoy all those moments with your family!

Good to hear from you Luke we look forward to more reports I am thinking good weather thoughts for you right now.

I am humbled to have my name in the subject of a topic thread, so I think that I will start a topic re: "NorFjor Notes" to divert the attention.

Ngaire, just wanted to let you know that John, Priscilla, Paula, and I are making valued use of your comments at lunch a week ago. Tapa smiled and almost blushed when I mentioned his "performance" on your recent sailing. And Gudrun (sp?) was pleased (as I'm sure she always is) to hear from you.

More at the Notes.

There's a plethora of Trondheim harbor cams located here. I think we have a good chance of spotting the Voyager and our friends tomorrow. :)

The Costa Europa will be in port with the Voyager tomorrow. You can view the cam here. Maybe we should ask Luke and the others to stand in front of her :hyper:

Karen,

I am not sure whether we will be alongside the Europa, and it certainly looks like we will not be in port with her for long; here is the pier listing from the Trondheim port site ... Trondheim ship calls

I think the Voyger is across the harbor. You can see the yellow funnel of the Europa in the near right.

Margo, Great stalking Luke!!! You were up early getting that. :)

Betty

Here is a real closeup of Voyager in Trondheim.



This is a great site for Norwegian webcams.

Wow, that really is a close up of the Voyager, Jeff!

I'll go to the rail on Deck 12 (top) at 4:00 local and see if that works ... white polo shirt and either a bald head or a black cap.

Luke
NorFjorNOW

I'll add this one here as well since we have different memberships. It appears the cam rotates every 30 minutes or so. Probably too difficult to get a shot of Luke.

I only wish I had a poster board with a big HOWDY from the LCT TEXAS Chapter! OR, if I had a GSM phone ....

Luke
NorFjorNOW

Can anyone figure out when his 4:00 local time will be?

17:00 on the cam image if it is set at GMT. If it is local time then 16:00. Time zone is GMT+1

jeff

Thanks Jeff (it's the old I have no math gene problem)

The website says they update every hour, unless Luke is very patient, we may not get a pic of him :(

I think the cams just switched postions and there are no Voyager views :(

FYI, I am a VERY patient person ... BUT, with bright sunshine, cool temperatures, and an open pool bar ......... well, my LCT friends, there's more to life than posing for you. However, if you spotted me poolside with a beverage, you would have found the picture of contentment!

Thanks for the stalking ... we'll try to figure out the Flam camera in a couple of days.

If nothing else, it was fun to see these webcam shots ... I "tried" to stalk the webcam and, in fact, took a couple of pics of "something" that looked like the culprit.

Here is the Voyager in Flam today.

I think we should of sent Neville on this cruise, he would of already had a billboard erected in the grass :)

Luke, Is that you by the RV? :)

Flam Cam

Luke we are glad to see you have your priorities straight!!! Sounds like you and your family are having a wonderful trip.

Sue

I love to see all that blue sky in these web cam shots it makes such a difference. GREAT web cam shots. We could even see Betty drink a glass of wine without hands on these close ups!

Jeff has emailed Erik in Bergen today to see if he will get some in person pics of the Voyager.

You can follow the other Stalking Luke post here

Greetings from Bergen ... a SPLENDID day in port and I'm even taking a break from lounging around the pool in the Norwegian sun.

The Royal Princess was also in port today, and I think they had the prime webcam position. We sail at 10 a.m. Central time, so maybe we will pass a cam on our way to Kristiansand.

More later.

Sorry Karen :(
I posted the link to photos in the NorFjor Notes thread. Eric got 2 great photos of RSSC Voyager departing Bergen.

jeff

No problem Jeff! I am going over now to take a look.

By the way, who is Eric? Does he live in Bergen?

Yes Eric lives in Bergen. His website is Bergen Ships

Very nice fellow and speaks excellent English (compared to my Norwegian).

jeff

Very nice website. I looked to see if he had a photo of the Song of Flower but I can't for the life of me remember her new name.
