The WORLD has arrived in Seattle!
The World, an enormous private cruise ship with 165 luxury homes on board arrived in Seattle this morning. Link to a local news article. When it comes to ship spotting, this one is most unusual! In our photo above note that one of the ship's tenders is about to be lowered so that passengers can tender into port. Our regular cruise ship terminals are busy today with other cruise ships ... the Norwegian Pearl at Pier 66, Emerald Princess and Holland America Oosterdam at Pier 91.

What a life , John. You sit there and ships sail in and out. Sit there and the un comes up and the sun goes down. that's one mother of a cruise ship!
ReplyDeleteOh, lovely pictures of ships. That's quite a few to absorb, but i also like the gorgeous sky shots, John. Thanks for the great variety to peruse. :-)
ReplyDeleteThe WORLD is incredible in every sense, I like it. All your photos are amazingly good, well done. Greeting to you!
ReplyDeleteGreat photos. Watching the ships come in and out of the Sound must be very interesting. Do you live where you can see them, or do you have a favorite spot to watch and photograph from? Either way John, your posts are always interesting and make me want to visit Seattle again. You;re a great PR person for the Seattle area :)
ReplyDeleteThat sure is one huge cruise ship.
ReplyDeleteFascinating pictures. Seeing all those different ocean going vessels sounds so interesting. I love the sky shots as well. Have a fabulous July 4th celebration.
ReplyDeleteI dunno as a child we live on a bluff above the Mississippi and adjacent railroad tracks between the Twin Cities and Chicago. Very interesting. But all those ocean going vessels. Wow!
