From Fog to Blue Sky to a Cruise Ship!

That Italian cruise ship disaster had me thinking of the sight of these massive ships here in Gloucester. It's got me wondering why a local pilot wasn't aboard being so close to the shore. The "Costa Concordia" is a similar ship in size as the "MS Eurodam" which visits Gloucester and lets hope this recent sinking in Italy makes the cruise ship industry world wide a safer one.
