Allure of the Seas at Port Everglades - 26 January…

For a member of the public, one of the few ways to get into a port is to be legitimately on a ship. That is part of what makes preparation for a cruise exciting. There is so much to see from the deck of ones ship although some creativity is needed with shots taken in a crowded environment. Wonderful though the previous days viewing had been, it was equally wonderful to be amongst this day's six ships including our own Holland America Eurodam. The berth occupied on Saturday by Oasis of the Seas was filled on Sunday by sister Oasis Class vessel Allure of the Seas as she prepared for departure to Labadee (Haiti).

This intentionally busy shot shows RCCL Independence of the Seas very much in a port context before departure for Georgetown.

Wonderful though the previous days viewing had been, it was equally wonderful to be amongst this day's six ships including our own Holland America Eurodam. The life of a port, though, is as much about the many merchant vessels which come and go as the luxury market. One diversion for me before the Eurodam sailed, was the arrival from Aruba of the oil/chemical tanker Prisco Elizaveta with tugs to assist her into a tight berth. In the background, Royal Princess, named last year in Southampton, is prepared for departure to, coincidentally, Aruba.

View towards Cockburn Town from the east side of the island. Grand Turk is only about two miles wide so it is not difficult to see from coast to coast from some vantage points.

Eurodam Loungers - 26 January 2014

While boarding was under way at Port Everglades, the decks of Holland America Eurodam were quieter than they would be at any time in the following week. On this cruise, The Jazz Cruise, the ship visited Grand Turk, San Juan, St. Maarten and Half Moon Cay.

Nieuw Amsterdam at Port Everglades - 26 January 20…
|
|
To be in the heart of a busy port is to be in a crowded environment which can restrict conventional compositions. That creates a chance to be a bit more imaginative with shots which depicts ships in their port environment. This picture of Holland America Nieuw Amsterdam, preparing for departure to Half Moon Cay, makes the most of an obstructed view.
