Someone told me there is a yarn shop over there! Of course, I have to go take a look. :) It has been so hot lately that I haven't spent too many hours ashore.<br /><br />Beatrice, that has happened that the lines have snapped, but not to this ship. It happened about 15 years ago while aboard another much smaller ship in high winds, but everything was OK and under control right away. There are always people on the bridge and in the control room, even in port.<br /><br />Elaine, the width of the dock is probably 8 or 10 feet in places. The dock over at the commercial port is much wider since it is connected directly to land.<br /><br />Thank you, everyone, for stopping by.<br /><br />Very best,<br />LoisLois Evensenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11129343619065721588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3186835296797362617.post-47488758040949850022010-08-14T00:30:51.216-04:002010-08-14T00:30:51.216-04:00When we were there we took a shuttle in to land, s...When we were there we took a shuttle in to land, so we must have been tied up in the overload area. That is one really long dock. How wide is it? I'm sure the size is very deceptive.Elainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01801967071649685995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3186835296797362617.post-59514805346089381992010-08-13T21:18:59.853-04:002010-08-13T21:18:59.853-04:00And we all hope that none of those thingies used t...And we all hope that none of those thingies used to hold the ship to the dock(s) ever breaks.
