Ms Deutschland
visited Killybegs yesterday with 530 passengers and 220 crew members. I’m surprised that the ship had that many people on it. The cruise ship looked a lot smaller from the ones I normally seen at other places. It left around 7pm and is now headed to Galway. The ship was here for ten hours and it was rainy and foggy most of the day.

Hi Bill.
ReplyDeleteNice ship, too bad for the people that it was foggy.
Groettie from Patricia.
We have had a lot of rain and fog too. This is an awesome pic of the ship.
ReplyDeleteLove your new header. Looks like a much larger and more interesting place than Moville (although I like Moville a lot). That is a smaller cruise ship but I guess they figure it's like a sardine can and just stuff everybody in to it! :)
ReplyDeleteRainy and foggy comes to mind when thinking on Ireland. Great shot.
ReplyDeleteI am surprised to see all those huge ships all around Europe. My objection is they have so many people on board that when they disembark at a touristic place is overfloaded with people in no time. It is not pleasant for everyone at all anymore.
ReplyDelete...Bill love your new banner. The Ms Deutschland sure wasn't greeted by a sunny day!
ReplyDelete550 people on a cruise ship actually is quite manageable, from a passenger's point of view; however, it doesn't look like a terribly large vessel. Perhaps it is just the angle of the photograph that makes it look quite small? Fog is fine, if you are on land, but I think it is quite scary if aboard and on a sea voyage. Interesting but not too much fun .
ReplyDeleteSeems a bit strange for me to think of a cruise ship in Ireland . . .
ReplyDeleteI love the inside of your country . . .
To walk about, hike, discover . . .
So much to see . . . love visiting with “your” people too.
Looks foggy and cold.
ReplyDeleteI hope they brought some warm some clothes with them.
I wish to be a passenger like this, just relax and see / explore many new places.
Welcome back Bill. I missed your daily offerings! Glad the move went so quickly and well.
ReplyDeleteIt does seem a small ship for so many people. Bet it appears bigger up close.
222 crew!!
ReplyDeleteWow.
I like to look at boats and ships...
ReplyDeleteI like to look at this particular one!
: )
I'm glad to see you are back and that your move went well! That is quite a photo of the ship. I wonder if the passengers enjoyed their visit.
ReplyDeleteA formidable ship!
ReplyDeleteI hope the passengers enjoyed their visit, despite the weather.
ReplyDeleteI have to google Killybegs so I know exactly where you are!
ReplyDeleteI don't like big cruise ships, but I do like smaller ones. I will be on a cruise ship next week that takes 930 passengers and goes up the Atlantic coast of Norway to the Arctic Circle and then crosses the North Sea to Scotland and England.
ReplyDeleteWhat cruise line? Ever take Silver Seas? Great cruise line we too to Alaska last June. No more than 500 passengers; that's the size I really, really like!
DeleteThis may look small by comparison because those larger ships can hold up to five times as many passengers. They're really monsters.
ReplyDelete220 crew. Amazing.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
So large number of people! Sounds great!
ReplyDelete750 on board this ship is way to many for moi Bill 😀
