Dream & Fantasy are rounding the Keys

[stephmarty]

Due west, they're rounding the Florida Keys just after midnight early Saturday it appears. Amazing to see the volume of ships all funneling into the same area to outrun Irma. I had wondered which direction they would head. Thought they may go north or out into the open Atlantic. I guess with Jose coming behind Irma, west was the way to go. Frankly, surprised DCL is cutting it as close as they are. Hope all aboard stay safe and get to head back to PC soon.

The Fantasy was off the coast of Havana (close enough for a distant skyline picture) around 6pm last night.

Last I saw the marine traffic data was more than 12 hours old for both ships.

Looks like they are off Cozumel along with a dozen other ships

Yep. It's a cruise ship convention.

Beth, don't you have a relative on the Dream or Fantasy? Have you heard from them? I would love to hear that the crew actually gets some down time for a change, they certainly deserve it.

According to my FB feed, the Princesses have been practicing their gathering skills today...

That is an important princess skill! Maybe the ships are having horn battles!

Yes. She is on the Fantasy and is fine. Thanks for asking. They do have activities going on for them when they have finished their work for the day. They have been told to change their clocks back an hour tonight, so there is a possibility they may visit a port, but that is 100% unconfirmed as of this typing. (Assuming they get back into port by the 16th, she flies to San Diego and starts a new position on the Wonder.)

The quote I got when I asked about horn battles was that they had one in PC. They are basically hanging out together and "it can't be all horn battles all the time."

Given the latest track of the hurricane, I would think they'd turn and sail southside of Cuba and up. They'd be back at PC in a couple days. Should be no issue there given latest track.

Well, I suppose they don't want to wear at the horns!

Jose... He's still out there following Irma.

True, but appears that it'll track up and away from the cruise tracks.
