Pictures of Podunk: Opening Day of Cruise Ship Season

















The 2006 Cruise Ship season got underway in fine style on Wednesday, as a hot sunny day welcomed two ships of the Celbrity line to Prince Rupert. The Infinity (left) called on Rupert at 8:30 in the morning, departing around 3 in the afternoon, while the Mercury (right) then tied up for the afternoon departing later that evening. Combined some 4,000 tourists wandered the streets and sights of Podunk under a beaming sun. Thursday brought two more ships into port, but the Sun had given way to a more traditional feature of the area, that of the cloudy skies and occassional shower of rain.
