FRANCONIA Puts to sea... never was able to find a picture of her.

Well done! I think it's all the rust inhibitor recently applied. I saw that you ship was heading to dry dock after delivering tomorrow at Chaleston... Seems about time!!!

If this is our ship, here is the WX track info link

Should probably report overnight. Right now it shows the last return voyage to mid-Atlantic.

I think he fell through a rusted-out section. I hope he had his water wings on. I have the site up, but it hasn't shown docked yet. It's crazy most MINIs on the ship have EDD's already, Bean just has MIA.

I found the FRANCONIA. I think the triangle looked better.
BTW, Bean isn't the only one that has had detention:

I'm either lost at sea or something. Dropped out of sight since Monday and ASKMINI just shows at the port.

Even with a Bill of Lading number and a cross-ref number I can't seem to get the K-Line tracking site to give up the information.
Seems that most all of the vehicles that were waiting for AIDA must have loaded on to FRANCONIA. Anybody else??

Good news - checked with the Automated Robot @ ASK MINI, it says @ port awaiting transport. The live person said it could very well be on it's way. :smile: He even said the EDD is when the MINI is supposed ot arrive @ the dealership!
A bit disappointed my MA told me otherwise : ( Hopefully she is only doing it for my health (ie, telling me later so the "last" week goes by easier).
