"OCEAN COUNTESS" in Liverpool yesterday








The cruise ship "OCEAN COUNTESS" visited Liverpool for the first time this year last tuesday, the first of a few turnaround cruises from the city of Liverpool, she inaugurated the new cruise terminal building, I didn't have the chance to photograph the event, instead I have captured the ship on her way out at 4 pm from New Brighton, "OCEAN COUNTESS" is on long time charter with UK based company CRUISE AND MARITIME VOYAGES, she is a fleet mate of the MARCO POLO. For other posts and photos of this classic cruise ship, please visit my CRUISE SHIPS AND LINERS Blog on http://vmf-cruiseshipsandliners.blogspot.com. Photos 29.5.2012
