Grandeur of the Seas entering Portland - Clip

Last post for awhile as I get settled into a new job. This awesome video has been making its rounds on Facebook and shows the beauty of Portland. It also happens to feature Grandeur of the Seas as it entered Portland last week. Great shot!

Shared it in some Facebook groups, got some great comments!

Grandeur arrives in Portland!

Grandeur of the Seas arrived in Portland yesterday. I wasn't able to see it arrive but we got to see it from our apartment as it sailed out to Bar Harbor/Canada. The Viking Crown lounge and upper decks managed to surpass the tree line giving us a nice view. For those few seconds I remembered sitting in the lounge in Port Canaveral with a nice cold Sprite after a day walking on the hot beach.

The local station WGME 13 did a report on Grandeurs arrival. A lot of good press lately about the cruise industry in Maine. Woohoo!

Picture to go along with the story. Sitting in the V.C.L. with a Sprite after walking the beach at Port Canaveral.
Spent a good chunk of sea days here! 

Cruise Schedule; Portland ME

As cruise ship season begins, here's a useful guide I use when I take photos of the ships or just to go view them. Sometimes the ships will leave early or later depending on circumstances but they usually stick to the schedule. The schedule is attached in the link below. Large list of ships coming, over 100!

Upcoming Cruise Season

Great article in todays paper about Maine's growing cruise industry. A lot of key statistics and numbers which show a significant boost in the industry are in the article. Grandeur will arrive this weekend and be the first ship to dock in Portland for the season!
