Leftovers

Sometimes when leaving ports we simply forget to give back access cards or keys but since we always have to pay a deposit it is not a damage for the marina. Now the question was if we shoul keep them as a reminder or to throw them away?

Independence of the sea

Image
The Independence of the sea is one of the worlds biggest cruis ships. She is 340m long and can accomodate 3634 guests and they are pampered by 1360 crew. She has homebase in Southhampton since 2008 and was built in Finnland. Currently she is cruising european waters. She has freecliming walls and also a device called Flowrider to surf in flowing water like an artificial wave. Her stern was secured with 10 thick lines! Check out the wash from her propellers. The AIDAluna looked small against her. It was beautiful to watch her leaving port.
