Aurora and Voyager

Today the Voyager arrived in St Peter Port, almost a year since its aborted drive-by at the anchorage when 2 other liners were at anchor but the Captain decided not to stay. This view was taken from Castle Cornet as the pilot boarded ready for a early evening departure back to Portsmouth. The weather has been hot and sunny for the past few days, good for the liner's guests and islanders.

On the southerly anchorage off Fermain Bay the Aurora has spent Thursday and Friday at anchor. The moorings at Fermain, the steps in the photo, are a favorite spot for fishing as well as enjoying the view of the bay. The cafe here is popular with local and visitors and is accessible only on foot.

With her overnight stay, the Aurora gave the chance for night time photos, here "balanced on top" of Castle Cornet, viewed from La Fregate Hotel, with its award winning restaurant.
