Symphony of the Seas is an Oasis-class cruise ship owned and operated by Royal Caribbean International. She was built in 2018 in the Chantiers de l'Atlantique shipyard in Saint-Nazaire, France, the fourth in Royal Caribbean's Oasis class of cruise ships. At 228,081 GT, she is the largest cruise ship in the world by gross tonnage, surpassing her sister ship Harmony of the Seas, also owned by Royal Caribbean International.
Symphony of the Seas measures 361.011 meters (1,184 ft 5.0 in) in length and has a gross tonnage of 228,081 across 18 decks. She is able to accommodate 5,518 passengers at double occupancy up to a maximum capacity of 6,680 passengers, as well as a 2,200-person crew. There are 16 decks for guest use, 22 restaurants, 4 pools, and 2,759 cabins.
Symphony of the Seas is about 30 meters (98 feet) longer than the largest military ships ever built, the U.S. Nimitz-class aircraft carriers.
Facilities include a children's water park, a full-size basketball court, an ice-skating rink, a zip line that is 10 decks high, a 1400-seat theater, an outdoor aquatic theater with Olympic-height platforms, and two 43-foot (13 m) rock-climbing walls. There is also a park containing over 20,000 tropical plants.
Symphony of the Seas is powered onboard by six marine-diesel sets each composed of three 16-cylinder Wärtsilä 16V46D common rail engines and three 12-cylinder Wärtsilä 12V46D engines.
The energy-efficient design of Symphony of the Seas enables it to accomplish shipboard power generation with 85 MW versus the 100 MW normally found on Oasis-class ships. One of the key design features is the use of only LED or fluorescent lights in order to avoid the heat generation from incandescent bulbs, thereby reducing the load on air conditioning systems.
Additional energy efficiency is accomplished by using a 2 MW steam turbine to recover waste heat from the engines and converting it into energy to power a portion of the onboard hotel load.
For propulsion, Symphony of the Seas uses three 20,000 kilowatt azipod main engines, which are electric thrusters. These engines are mounted under the stern of the ship and they each drive 20 foot wide rotatable propellers. In addition to the three main engines, there are four bow thrusters used for docking, each with 5,500 kilowatts of power or 7,380 horsepower.
Among the Oasis-class ships, Symphony of the Seas uses 25% less fuel due to the implementation of a new system that releases tiny air bubbles under the hull to enable the vessel to glide more smoothly through the water. The air layer also reduces excitation from the propellers, which cuts noise and vibration levels in the aft part of the ship.

Acts 16:24 “After receiving these orders, the jailor threw them into the maximum security cell and had their feet securely fastened in wooden restraints.”
Running 45 minutes late at this point, Freightliner octet 70002, 70017, 66622, 66616, 66615, 66614 'Poppy 1916 - 2018', 66613 & 66605 head along a dull Hope Valley line towards Strines on the Saturday light-engine special, 0K98 from Earles Sidings to Crewe Basford Hall. The eight locos involved ties the all-time record, and I think is the maximum number of locos permitted to be moved together in one convoy?
With no indication as to what was going to be allocated to this today I nearly didn't go out for it, particularly with the weather at the original pass through time consisting of sideways rain. However when I saw it was delayed, and with the weather a bit better, I took that as a sign I should venture out, and was suitably rewarded with the octet, lead by a rumbling 70, which is always a bonus.

Lake Petén Itzá (Lago Petén Itzá) is a lake in the northern Petén Department in Guatemala. It is the second largest lake in Guatemala, the Izabal Lake being the largest. It is located around 16°59′0″N 89°48′0″W. It has an area of 99 km² some 32 km. long and 5 km wide. Its maximum depth is 160 m. The lake area presents high levels of migration, due to the existence of natural resources such as wood, chewing gum, oil, and agricultural and pasture activities. Because of its archaeological richness, around 150,000 tourists pass through this region yearly.

My maximum zoom: an 800 mm lens with a x1.4 teleconverter. The closest I can get to the dunes in the setting sun of Saudi Arabia. I am always happy to receive photography tips though!

Trying to catch up my delay ... (which is still very big) ... but I need to post a new photo from time to time ...
Thank you in advance for all your faves and comments. I might answer several WEEKS/MONTHS later. And I might post several photos in the meantime.
Merci d'avance pour tous vos faves et commentaires. Je vous répondrai peut-être dans plusieurs SEMAINES/MOIS. Et je posterai peut-être plusieurs photos entre temps.
France. Vosges. Alsace. Bas-Rhin. Cet étang est situé au Col de Steige (534m), qui relie la Vallée de la Bruche et le Val de Villé. Photo prise en improvisant de faire le tour de l'étang.
La photo a été prise depuis la rive ouest de l'étang.
En ce samedi 17 décembre 2022, il y avait encore beaucoup de neige à basse altitude en Alsace, une mer de nuages pas trop épaisse sur la plaine d'Alsace et au-dessus du grand soleil dans un ciel peu nuageux. Ce cocktail est tellement rare, surtout un samedi, que j'ai eu envie d'en profiter au maximum, en allant faire des mini-randonnées à plusieurs endroits différents. Je me suis fixé 2 objectifs principaux. Le 1er à la Cascade de l'Andlau près du Hohwald et le 2nd au Donon. Et pour relier ces 2 endroits, j'avais prévu de passer par le Col du Kreuzweg, Breitenbach, le Val de Villé, le Col de Steige, Ranrupt et la Vallée de la Bruche. Tout au long de cet itinétaire de liaison, je m'autorisais à faire une halte à tout endroit que je trouverais très beau.
Et c'est ce qui s'est passé au Col de Steige. Pourtant, j'y étais déjà passé à d'autres moments de l'année et je n'avais pas estimé que ça valait le coup de s'y arrêter, mais ce n'était pas en conditions hivernales. Il faut dire, que cet étang est particulièrement défiguré par les cicatrices de la civilisation humaine, avec :
- Une grosse et vilaine ligne à haute tension sur sa rive OUEST
- La route D424 sur sa rive EST
- La route D50 sur sa rive SUD
Et avec 2 ronds-points entre les 2 routes. Sa seule rive préservée est la rive NORD mais elle est toute petite ...
Mais ce jour-là, avec la neige et l'étang gelé, le cadre était magique alors je me suis laissé tenter pour en faire le tour (que j'ai bouclé en 30 minutes en prenant tout mon temps). Et je ne l'ai pas regretté, d'autant que je n'y ai croisé que 3 personnes. Sans doute parce qu'il faisait froid (malgré le soleil) et que c'était samedi, où les gens vont beaucoup dans les magasins (surtout si près de Noël).
Sur ce cliché, on peut voir au centre ce petit îlot caractéristique, qui lui apporte une touche bien sympathique, avec sa 10aine d'arbres feuillus et résineux. Pour ce qui est des cicatrices de la civilisation, elles ne sont pas trop visibles sur ce cliché car :
- La ligne à haute tension était dans mon dos,
- Il n'y avait aucune voiture sur les 2 routes au moment de la prise,
- Le Col de Steige et les 2 ronds-points sont cachés derrière l'îlot,
- Les quelques panneaux de signalisation routière ne se voient presque pas grâce aux branches devant ou à la distance.
The rails continue to sing as a hot Z train flies down main 1 out of the sunset doing all of the maximum authorized speed. On main 2 sits a loaded worm train bound for the coast with the normal 4x3x2 set up.
Jordan Pond is located in Acadia National Park near the town of Bar Harbor, Maine. It covers 187 acres with a maximum depth of 150 feet and a shoreline of 3.6 miles.The pond has clear water, with visibility normally 46 feet and occasions of up to 60 feet recorded, the deepest in Maine.

Woodborough loops are only a mile or so west of here and the train is still nowhere near its maximum speed of 45mph after waiting there for a couple of IETs to pass
In September 2019 Go-Coach purchased three ex-London United Optare Tempos these being, YJ11 EHN, YJ11 EHR and YJ11 EHX and were numbered 7801, 7802 and 7803 in the fleet. They are almost exclusively used on high capacity school routes which can only accomodate single deck vehicles.
A unique opportunity presented us on Saturday 19th September 2020 when all three Optare Tempo's were at Otford so a lineup was arranged this being the first time since they were repainted that all three have been together! So from the left we have 7801 YJ11 EHN, 7802 YJ11 EHR and 7803 YJ11 EHX at Otford Vestry Road.
YJ11 EHN - Optare Tempo 12.0m (Ex-London United OT6 & OT30206)
YJ11 EHR - Optare Tempo 12.0m (Ex-London United OT9 & OT30209)
YJ11 EHX - Optare Tempo 12.0m (Ex-London United OT15 & OT30215)

With a small X-Acto cut to the bottom of the Maxim 08/15 receiver, the RPD drum will fit quite nicely. However, there is now no room for it to pitch up & down on a tripod attached to the mounting tab!
The Maxim MG 08/15 overmold will be available in limited quantities at World War Brick in Anaheim. I'll bring my X-Acto and make this mod for anyone that wants one - but you must supply the RPD drum (or get an RPD from the Brickmania store at the show).

For Macro Mondays - Staying Healthy. How do I try to stay healthy? I try to include fresh natural foods like this mandarin in my diet, this one straight from our garden! And getting out into the great outdoors is great for the mind and spirit.
I had a fabulous evening on Suisun Marsh last night. We had the blessing of a bit of rain. The birds seemed ecstatic and the clouds put on an amazing show.

Here is my contribution for the “Wild” category of RogueOlympics, week 6. I wanted to make an outrageous concept vehicle that looked super flashy and fast, without being practical in the slightest. Tying into these definition of wild: “not subject to restraint or regulation; going beyond normal or conventional bounds : fantastic, wild ideas, also: sensational”.
So I had fun with super bright colors and large shapes. This time I used just 95 elements.
