Close-up and intimate with CAP FINISTERE





Getting very intimate with the CAP FNISTERE back in March of this year, the ship was just making her final approach to her berth at Santurtzi/Bilbao, looking very fresh with new paint from a recent refit.

Great appeal for shopping, none does it better on board their ships than BRITTANY FERRIES. Photos 5.11.2014

The perfect crossing for some photos on board MONT ST MICHEL








There were 222 passengers on board MONT ST MICHEL yesterday on her 8.30am crossing from Ouistreham to Portsmouth, ideal for me to catch up with the splendid passenger facilities on the ship, here we can see the childrens playroom, drivers restaurant and lounge and of the reclining seats lounge. 5.11.2014

A new finding for me and a touch of Christmas on board MONT ST MICHEL



A new NESPRESSO coffee machine is now on board MONT ST MICHEL at the bar opposite to the "Les Romantiques" Restaurant, I have been told it was placed there in June this year, unfortunately it could only be used on the afternoon sailing, shame because I quite like NESPRESSO, one I need to try next time, also a touch of Christmas at the "Kiosque",a sign of things to come very shortly on BF Cruise Ferries.

MONT ST MICHEL at sea and arriving portsmouth












Photos yesterday at sea and arriving Portsmouth aboard the MONT ST MICHEL, she is a ship that I just adore to sail on, she will be 12 years old come December, always used by BF on the Ouistreham to Portsmouth route with another delightful ship, the 22 year old NORMANDIE. 5.11.2014

CAP FINISTERE on her way to Bilbao


Yesterday I was sailing once again on the MONT ST MICHEL from Ouistreham to Porstmouth, as we were entering harbour, passengers were notified that our arrival would be delayed by 15 minutes, the reason was the large volume of shipping activity at the Port, which also delayed CAP FINISTERE, had not been for the late arrival of my ship and late departure of the CAP FINISTERE, I would not have been able to make these photos. Great moment for me, 5.11.2014

Back on board MONT ST MICHEL



MONT ST MICHEL is a charming cruise ferry, I have sailed on her many times since her introduction in 2002, yesterday I was once again back on board for a crossing from Ouistreham to Porstmouth, photos 5.11.2014
