TORONTO left Bremerhaven 3/22

For those interested, the ship has now arrived in Gothenburg Sweden, and is sitting at the Skandiahamnen berth.

HOORAAAAY!!!!!!

I DEFINITELY AM on the Toronto. Earlier this week , I had been mistaken and Assumed that I was on either the Otello or Courage. BUT TODAY, I got confirmation that I am on the Courage. (vin finally was recognised on the "Track By Auto" page of the shipping company) I was really hoping not to get on that slow poke of a ship the Atlantic Compass. Toronto gets to NY 5 days earlier than the Compass. Anyone in Statten Island sitting on the shore with binoculars?

So actually. At this time, the ship is farther away from NYC than it was when it was in Bremehaven? Maybe that is why it takes 14 days instead of 12 or 13. Thats OK, it beats sitting at the port and wondering when it will be loaded onto a ship. The Final Countdown begins!

Yes, it's a little further away. It leaves Sweden today for Belgium, arriving there Monday, and leaving the same day. Must be picking up some Volvos
Then it goes to Southampton UK Wednesday, then Halifax (for me!) on the 3rd, and NY on the 5th. After that, Baltimore on the 7th, then Brunswick GA on the 10th.

Looks like it's set to land at Southampton at 2:30am GMT - around 4 hours from now.

Edit - that should be 7:30GMT - oops. Sorry.

Southampton is a nice place to hangout and eat some fish & chips with some vinegar on top

This is a webcam shot at Southampton. I wonder if that is the 'Toronto' in the background".

"Toronto" left its berth at Southampton at 10:51PM GMT, just under an hour ago.
Next stop - Halifax. That's my stop!
