Celebrity Eclipse

A varied cruise for today's guests on the Celebrity Eclipse who left Southampton yesterday. When they leave St Peter Port, they go on to Southern Ireland and then cruise all around Iceland, many contrasts. Yesterday's fog had thinned somewhat and at least allowed the liner to be visible from the shore.


The around island bus trips seem to be one of the most popular for the independent guests with queues at the bus station for most of the day. Other bus services cover only some of the west coast and don't attract the same numbers.


The short tender ride from the new landing pontoon is clearly visible in this image. A short walk into St Peter Port, or along the sea front to the Tourist Information office, show the benefits of this re-location from the other side of the harbour. With calm seas for the tender ride to return to the Celebrity Eclipse, she left late this afternoon bound for Cobh in Southern Ireland.
