    I have two windows of it up all the time on my top screen, one on the entrance to PE and the other on the second camera which is usually showing some part of the Port from Pier 66 to the Atlantic. They have a 3rd camera which I watch on my tablet.

    And my second screen is devoted you YF!!

    As much as I enjoy your pics, you do realize that right outside your door there are canals to be explored, and boats and hot bods to be ridden.:D

    Where are these boats going? To me it seems like the wrong time of year to leave Florida. I'm personally trying to get back down south.

    I made the same initial assessment, and realized I had seen them before.

    Yes it looks like she is taking on ballast to lower the ship.

    You can watch it all live on Port Everglades Webcam - A Fort Lauderdale Cruise Ship Web Cam

    Cam #2 is where all the action is right now.

    This 'documentary' can be placed in this thread. Showcasing a loading in Florida and crossing to Genoa for offloading.

    Doesn't show over here in San Diego. I get the "not your country" message, too.
