Today the wind moderated and there were not quite as many showers as the Ruby Princess paid her first visit to Guernsey. Having left Fort Lauderdale on the 27th April, she has followed in the footsteps on her sister ship the Emerald Princess which recently visited. She is currently on a British Isles Cruise and after leaving St Peter Port will head for Cobh in Southern Ireland and then to the Scottish Islands. The roofs of Hauteville show in the image below, home to Victor Hugo's house.
The Ruby Princess was in St Peter Port only for a short half day visit and for her 3,000 plus guests had her tenders running as well as local ferries.
Many of her guests took the opportunity to visit Castle Cornet as well as take a walk on the Castle Breakwater for some picture opportunities with the castle and St Peter Port as a background.
