Hong Kong Port
The District Cooling System (DCS) installed at the Hong Kong Port distributes cooling capacity in the form of chilled water from a central source located at the basement of the Passenger Clearance Building to various buildings at the Port through a network of underground pipes. Individual chiller plants are not required.

The DCS is considered highly energy efficient as it consumes 35% and 20% less electricity as compared with traditional air-cooled air-conditioning systems and individual water-cooled air-conditioning systems using cooling towers respectively. The estimated annual savings in electricity consumption of the DCS is 3.5 million kilowatt-hour (kWh), with a corresponding reduction of 2,500 tonnes of carbon dioxide emission per annum as compared with individual water-cooled air-conditioning systems using cooling tower.

Stuart - you could have started off the new round ;)
Saw the line but no big bang.

1+2 takes me from shore Leave to Sitka.

First roll in dry dock
4+1... not leaving yet.

While I'm cooling my heels here, and flush with cash, I'm going to add another sail to Iloilo.

Lighthouse doing target practice again. I hope I am not mistaken- I think Michael was sitting in place on the last round.
Roll 4+5=9>> Los Angeles. Please Mr CFO, at your convenience, transfer funds to your coffers. Good news- the Port of Long Beach/ Los Angeles is not as backed-up with ships as it was a few months ago. Queue at the peak was 109 ships. 32 last week.

Thanks, Randi, for the visual tour of our ports of call. For the shot of Long Beach/ Los Angeles, what you don't see is how high those containers are stacked!

It's Shanghai.
Sorry, I should have labeled it :oops:
Now I have.



Looking for a picture for LA....
I see why you thought it was Shanghai
The loading areas very similar.

I'm not sure what you mean by this, Stuart, since a 9 from Halifax does take you to "Go to Drydock!".
Did you pay the bailout fee, or did you have a Get out of Drydock card that I somehow overlooked?

My understanding was that if the dice sent you to Shore leave you were at shore leave unless a card sent you to Dry dock.

If that was not the case then I am still in "Dry dock"
Can we have some clarification between "Shore leave" and Dry Dock"
Thanks

That is correct, but the dice didn't send you to Shore Leave - they sent you to the "Go to Drydock" space, and if you land on that, you do go straight to Drydock.

Take a look at the board, and see where a 9 from Halifax takes you.

Opps, Sorry. :oops:

Third roll at Dry dock is 5 and 4. takes me to Shanghai.
Please pay Chris.

(Can you change the wording in the instructional text to Dry Dock.)

"Dockyard
A captain can be directed to dockyard in three ways: by landing on the Go to Dockyard space"

Michael has replaced all occurrences of "Dockyard" with "Drydock". Here's hoping that was the only old thing in there!

Now for my turn:
Result of the dice: 4 + 3 = 7
You landed on Intrepid
What was it you just said about this vessel, Morgan?
