This one looked like a pirateship, I expected to see Johnny Depp any moment.

BeantwoordenVerwijderenI agree with Janey, very clever to have a bridge that can be dismantled for this type of event.

"Your world Tuesday" certainly is spectacular with all those boats and beautiful tall ship!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI agree, So many ropes:which is the right one? I enjoyed this series. Thanks.

BeantwoordenVerwijderenWonderful to see! 2.5 million people though -- I'm not sure I would have braved the crowds. It looks like you were able to get quite close in some of your photos.
