Hurricane Hermine- Heading to New York City

After enjoying our visit to St Johns, Newfoundland Labrador, Canada (September 3, 2016), we were to stop at Halifax, Nova Scotia; however, the effects of Hurricane Hermine were felt this far North so the ship's captain decide to head for our final destination, New York City.

The doors to the lower decks were closed. And the winds were too strong for us to open the door to our balcony so I shot this view riding up the exterior facing lift. We were at sea the 4th and 5th of September. The videos are from 5th September.

On deck nine, a roped off area was accessible for smokers. The jittery video represents the difficulty standing still as even that high up, the storm effects were noticeable.

The indoor and outdoor pools were drained earlier because of the wave action. Many people were seasick.

The wave-action eventually lessened as we neared New York City. We docked on 6th September.
