Is that our Moosies?

Now they are headed straight towards us, whoever it is.

Okay, I'm thinking Sitka is a tender port. I've got some shots of the approach and anchoring (I'd imagine...LOL). Hard to tell if it's them though.

Will post in a sec.

Yes, that's us in Sitka. Great job, Robert!! It was a beautiful sail in.

Lee, Randy and I waved at the Skagway webcam yesterday. Maybe someone saw us!!

Another great stalk Robert!

Here's a shot of the ship from a different angle as it was coming into to port this morning. This shot is from the Sitka airport cam.

I think they are scheduled to depart at 4:00pm AK time (which I think means 7:00pm here). I'll probably be on the back deck watching the hummingbirds and drinking a glass of wine, so can you make sure we don't miss it? (Let me know if you can't, and I can try running back and forth!)

PS: This is fun! My first time to help with stalking!

Great pics, Cindy and Robert! Thanks for taking us along with the MOOSE'ers vicariously. I sure hope that sunshine holds for Hubbard Glacier tomorrow.

Sail away in 10 minutes or so...

I think I saw Karen and Julie running madly for that last tender!

And all of a sudden they are gone! I'm calling faulty refresh on the cam!! LOL!

Looks like they have pulled up anchor and are hauling out of Sitka.

You guys are THE BEST stalkers!! I am so impressed! You captured our weather day so well, it was spectacular. It's still clear out and rumor has it we can see the Aurora Borealis tonight so we are setting our alarm clock for 1am :)

Wow - I'm impressed - what fabulous stalking. As Beth said, we waved at the cam - everyone looked at us - can't imagine why! Lee

Wish we had caught you waving! We will on your next cruise!! LOL.

Well, it looks like this stalk is coming to a close. I'll be up early to look for you in Seward.

Safe travels to those heading home tomorrow and smooth seas to those staying on board.

Hi Robert - I saw this one as well. Looks like the ship's silouette in the background there.

Hey Cindy! I bet you are right. It's nearly daylight here so it shouldn't be too much longer for them.
