I was actually hoping that the pilot would board by helicopter, so i would have another movie to add to my collection. Fingers crossed for next time  :P

Everyone, I have mentioned that my uncle and aunt are going on a trip to the Norwegian Fjords on the MSC Opera.
Well, on 27th of July, I will be going to see her at the Locks of IJmuiden!  :2thumbs:
And to wave goodbye to my uncle and aunt off coarse.  :)

So, MSC Opera

27th of July

Grimaldi was also my first thought. Grimaldi has a line service to Kallo, Belgium. They might await the tide there or anchor there for bunkers.

I wonder if anyone has considered jumping over from one ship to the other yet?  :doh: There must be some sort of barrier in the middle to stop the ships damaging each other?

Not via the bridge wing but via the deck, yes. They have to cross our ship to get ashore  :) We'll have to start asking toll, our paint on deck wears out with all the vessels coming alongside and people crossing our deck  :doh:

There are hanging wooden fenders between both vessels.
