Cruise Ships at Liverpool










Excellent start of the week in Liverpool as far as Cruise Ships visits is concerned, Sunday registered the call of the MARCO POLO and yesterday was the turn of SAGA PEARL II to visit the city. MARCO POLO's visit coincided with the 100th Anniversary of the sinking of the TITANIC, several events were organized for that day, the Merseyside Museum opened one hour earlier to welcome passengers of the MARCO POLO for an exclusive tour and a lecture about the exhibition now taking place at the museum "TITANIC THE UNTOLD STORY". Both cruise ships are operated by UK based companies, the MARCO POLO by C.M.V. and the SAGA PEARL II by SAGA CRUISES. For other posts and photos of these two cruise ships please visit my CRUISE SHIPS AND LINERS Blog http://vmf-cruiseshipsandliners.blogspot.com. Photos taken on the 15th and 16th of April 2012

VISION OF THE SEAS DOCKING AT LIVERPOOL






Few images taken today with the VISION OF THE SEAS docking at Liverpool

THE OLD PIER HEAD AT LIVERPOOL



There is a lot of controversy about the future of the historic PIER HEAD at Liverpool, the pier is facing an uncertain future and is a miserable sight to watch at the moment, the city wants to increase the number of cruise ships visiting this beautiful city but the conditions on offer are far from good, even the present so called CRUISE TERMINAL is nothing but a platform where the ships dock. Photos included show the old PIER almost connected with the new platform, the ferry MERSEY SEAWAYS can be seen on the second and the cruise ship VISION OF THE SEAS manouevring towards her berth, 16.06.2011

CRUISE SHIP VISION OF THE SEAS AT LIVERPOOL




I was back in Liverpool today to photograph the VISION OF THE SEAS, she is a beautiful cruise ship operated by ROYAL CARIBBEAN, she was built in 1998 by CHANTIERS DE L´ATLANTIQUE in France, the vessel is 78.491 GT and has a cruising speed of 22 knots, unfortunately the weather was not very good, cold for June and no sunny spells at all
