V is for View of Various Vessels from the Veranda

Since we live by a fjord (actually several), we have a View of the Various Vessels that pass beneath our Veranda. It may be large cruise ships like the "Queen Victoria", or...

... it may be small pleasure crafts and fishing boats.

We can see the ketch "Loyal" from the 19th century...

... and the barque "Statsraad Lehmkuhl" from 1914, the pride of the city of Bergen .

Sometimes we get several very worthy ships: Here comes first Hurigrutens (The Coastal Express) "Trollfjord", followed by the immense "Queen Mary 2".

There is never a dull moment when one can watch the sea.


Today's post is an entry in the fourth round of ABC Wednesday, the meme initiated by Denise Nesbitt.
