Queen Victoria

One of the world's most recognisable cruise lines arrived today in the shape of the Queen Victoria. Just before 8 am as St Peter Port was coming alive the liner dropped anchor. Tenders were already being swung out ready for the guests to enjoy the delights of Guernsey at the weekend. St Peter Port is the final port of call on her cruise from Spain and Portugal. The last port of call was Vigo, one of the world's largest fishing ports.

Maybe there was a fishing contest at the end of the Castle Breakwater as the Queen Victoria leaves for her return to Southampton. A favorite spot in the summer, it is hard to believe that in the winter the waves will break over the lighthouse.

The same weather pattern continued as for the last few days, the Liners leave and the sun comes out. Locals and tourists alike came out to enjoy the lack of wind and welcome sun. Bordeaux Harbour is made even more attractive by the high tide and calm seas, a lovely place to sit and enjoy the view, shame about the digger.
