It’s the season of cruise ships. More precisely, it’s time for the parade of cruise ships that sail back and forth to Alaska. They sail through the Strait of Juan de Fuca, stopping at Port Angeles to pick up or drop off a pilot. Some days you can see three or four at once. Locals call them the cruise ship races. So far we haven’t seen anyone water skiing behind these babies.
Too large for me; I prefer small boats to large ships.
That is a superb photo, Kay. I get mesmerized by it. The ship seems to go on forever and ever. Amen.
That does look massive.
Hee hee – water skiing. What a huge ship. I’d love to see a bunch of them at one time. Great shot!
I like the smaller river cruise ships and have taken quite a few of the Viking River Cruises on the rivers of Europe. Viking has now built some ocean-going cruise ships. Instead of around 175 passengers for the river cruises, the new ocean-going ships hold about 900. I am going to give it a try in late August, in Scandinavia.
