What's with the port cam today?

[Rock'n Robin]

The camera I use every Sunday to look at the Wonder is focused on what looks like a battleship! It had the Magic yesterday...will it change later?

I have noticed that too. It seems to change a lot. I'm not sure if there's a schedule, but it usually changes back to the ship.

I noticed it this morning... Verandah Man... where are you?? he may know how often it changes.. Hopefully soon.

Is that a coast guard ship or just a "ship"??? that they have on camera now?

The camera is just turned to look down the channel a bit. It should turn back to be on the Wonder sometime before it sails. Keep checking back.

I don't think it has any schedule, other than whoever's controlling it turns it to look at something. They're usually reliable to turn to watch the ships depart however.

Verandah Man just got home from church and lunch, I see the answer to this question has been answered rather well, by some of our other DIS'er friends. I haven't had a chance to check the port cam since we got home, but I will in a few minutes. When I checked this morning, I said to myself, "Hey where's the Wonder, the camera should be on the Wonder." I know they change camera shots from time to time, but Thursday's, Saturday's, and Sunday's are "OUR" times!!!


I just checked and it's still on that other "little boat", will need to check back later. Now, if I was running that camera.........

As of 4:56 pm it's still on the little boat. I did ask the Hubby if he knew what ship it was (he's a boat freak) and he thinks it's a NASA recovery ship. But I don't want to see the NASA ship!
I found the joys of the Port cam yesterday, and watched the Magic leave. Wish I had been on it.

The Carnival Fantasy is leaving right now.

 

[Verandah Man]

I guess we'll have to try and see it from this angle today, then go over to twopalms.com and watch it go by there.
I missed the Magic leave from the port on Saturday(stomach virus), but I caught the Magic go by two palms, before another emergency run to the bathroom!!! Luckily today, I'm feeling much better!!! LOL!!!

 

[txadmin]

This is my first time to try to see the Wonder. At what time do you estimate it will go past twopalms? I got this link from a post. Is there a usual cost to be able to go to the other cams?

 

[txadmin]

Another question. I went back and read the first post again. What is the site for the camera you usually watch? TIA

 

[Verandah Man]

The Wonder just went past that little boat in the port. Watch at two palms, usually goes by there about 20-25 minutes after it leaves the port. The two palms cam is about one mile south of Port Canaveral.

Thanks, I'm going to try to catch it today. About how long a time period do I have...how long will it be in site of the camera?

 

[CaliforniaDreaming]

I see her, too!

Verandahman, how clearly can you see her going past two palms? I tried to watch last week, but I couldn't tell if I saw a ship or not.

 

[Jeanny]

Cali~
you can see the Wonder going by twopalms quite clearly,,, not a tiny sight at all! Should be going by about 20-25 minutes after leaving PC.

Keep watching!.

[Verandah Man]

Were you able to see the WONDER go by??? It's only in camera view for a few minutes!!!

 

[CaliforniaDreaming]

I missed it! It went like 8 minutes before reloading, and when it did it was RCCL!

I have a cable modem and my reload comes up very fast. In fact, I go back and forth between the port cam, the two palms cam, and the DCL Forum on the DISbaords, in just seconds.

 

[CaliforniaDreaming]

I have a cable modem, too. It reloaded quickly every 6 seconds for the RCCL ship, but made me completely miss the Wonder. I haven't ever had it not reload for so long. I'll have to try again next week!
