2008Cruise Ships IV - Set

The issue features the 'Queen Victoria' (90,000 gross tons); the 'Grand Princess' (109,000 gross tons), the ‘Century’ (71,145 gross tons) and the ‘Costa Mediterranean’ (86,000 gross tons) all of which are callers to the Rock of Gibraltar during the year. It is truly a fantastic sight to view these magnificent ships coming in through the Strait of Gibraltar, early in the morning, with the sun rising off its back and the mountains of Africa in the background on a sharp, clear day.
