Default Chilly reception for first cruise ship ............

After a perfect sunny day in Auckland the Star Princess cruise ship came to Wellington but unfortunately it was not the best of days as the fotos show. This was the first cruise ship this spring/summer with many more to come.

Hello Bernz, it does look gloomy, but I'm sure the passengers still enjoyed your beautiful country.

A bit hazy, it's true, Bernz! But what an incredible ship! It's amazing that man can build such a behemoth and keep it afloat!! Thanks for sharing!

Hello Bernz, take what you can, when you can mate. These cruise ships are massive, with all the amenities and facilities of a floating city, and the mist gives the images an air of Poirot like intrigue, a sort of murder on the Star Princess express
